...shorter wavelengths. When the slinky was moved with huge, slow strokes, there was low frequency and long wavelength. Constructive interference was illustrated when both people on either side of the slinky sent their waves at the same time, and on the same side. They constructed together and the wave continued. Deconstructive interference occurred when a wave was sent on opposite sides. When the waves met in the middle they fell apart and were lost. The highest frequency and shortest wavelength result in the highest energy, while little energy is found in a low frequency, long wavelength. The objective of determining the relationship between the colors of visible light and those of select elements were met through the results of the flame test to observe Lithium, Sodium acetate, and sodium chloride. Also by using a spectroscope to observe the spectra of Helium, Argon, Mercury, and Neon emissions. This was done to compare the gaseous spectra to a solid spectra. The spectroscope directed at a flourescent light bulb showed a full line spectra, meaning every light was visible in the light bulb. Unfortunately the same elements weren’t burnt as those that were observed using the spectroscope so it wasn’t possible to compare the line and band spectrums together. Although, line spectrums were more prevalent in the gaseous stage and band spectrums were more common in a solid form. This is because the line spectrum is more easily observable when in a compact form such as a solid, compared...

...Week 3: Ethnic Groups and Discrimination Edwina Joy Akens ETH / 125 April 10, 2011 Ellen McPeek Glisan Axia College of University of Phoenix Week 3: Ethnic Groups and Discrimination This first question, did African Americans get colonized or immigrate to the United States caused me to take pause and reflect on my history in a manner that I had not done before. As an African American student there were always classes in which we were taught about our history, how we came to this country as slaves, etc. But never did the question come up about whether or not we were colonials or immigrants. The concept has always been, “people of African descent have not been counted as part of America's migratory tradition. The transatlantic slave trade has created an enduring image of black men and women as transported commodities, and is usually considered the most defining element in the construction of the African Diaspora…” (Diouf, n.d., In all of the history classes taken never once was there addressed the question of whether or not African Americans come as colonials or immigrants. Interestingly enough, after extensive research there was more confusion that expected. The transatlantic slave trade is all that was generally taught, especially when I was in middle and high school which was over 40 years ago. Therefore, my initial response to this question was we were neither colonials nor immigrants, we were simply ‘property.’ Now, I’m not so sure. According to my research...

...Project Report Writing Project title: To show that starch is formed as a result of photosynthesis. Introduction This report writing is about conducting an experiment to show that starch is formed as a result of photosynthesis (testing for starch in a green leaf). It would talk about the aim, list of all apparatus needed and the different methods used. It would also illustrate the three conditions necessary for photosynthesis that is, if carbon dioxide, sunlight and chlorophyll are necessary for photosynthesis. In addition, a test would be carried out to demonstrate that starch is formed as a result of photosynthesis. Last but not the least, outcomes expected from each test carried out would be given in this report after each investigation is done. Plan Plan is to research on relevant information for my project and to produce a written report at the end.

Marielli Katherine C. Untalan February 16, 2013 I. Introduction: Consumer acceptability tests are one form of quantitative affective test. Quantitative affective tests are those which determine the responses of a large group (50 to 400) of consumers to a set of questions regarding preference, liking, sensory attributes, etc. The analysts use Hedonic Scale Rating Test for determining the consumer acceptability of the product sample. This method shows the degree of liking for a product sample to be evaluated and indirectly shows preference. However, it does not show the reason for acceptability. In addition, it cannot be used for quality control purposes since it does not show product development. II. Objectives: 1. To learn to conduct acceptability tests. 2. To know and understand the different types of consumer acceptability tests 3. To understand the principle involved in consumer acceptability test 4. To learn and understand how to analyze data from consumer acceptability test III. Materials: * Watermelon wine * Master sheet * Sample containers * Trays * Cups * Napkins * Graduated cylinder IV.

...coin, it could be an advanced neural network application focused on detecting money laundering schemes. Whether it is simple or advanced, data analysis provides many benefits in the prevention and detection of fraud. On one hand, the fraud examiner gains insight on 100 percent of an organization’s transaction data vs. more limited manual methods of selection. Further, this approach can generally be completed in less time than manual procedures, given the automation of the work. Examiners also gain improved business intelligence as the generated reports often lead to conclusions beyond whether just fraud occurred. Such new insights can lead to suggested process improvements to the client. The Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) Research Foundation recently announced the posting of a free online document to help fraud examiners worldwide use computers to fight fraud. Proactively Detecting Occupational Fraud Using Computer Audit Reports, written by the author of this article, is designed to assist fraud examiners and management in implementing data analysis...

...leaseholder and operator of the Maconda well located off the coast of Louisiana. The company was ultimately responsible for conducting operations there safely and in respect of the environment. BP hired Transocean Ltd (the owner of the drilling rig Deepwater Horizon) to provide the vessel and drilling crew to implement BP’s operations of the Maconda well. 1 Investigations established that bad management on the Deepwater Horizon resulted in poor safety on the rig. The US chemical safety board concludes that a last-ditch safety device on the underwater well had multiple failures and wasn't tested properly. It found that the cause of the initial explosion involved multiple screw-ups with cement, drilling mud, fluid pressure, botched tests, management problems and poor decisions. The blowout preventer sealed the well temporarily, but then it failed and that caused the massive spill. 1 For a description of BP’s implication in the Deepwater Horizon accident you can also read Cherry and Sneirson (2011), p. 988-999. The authors also examine green marketing and corporate governance, identifying elements of each that encourage firms to engage only superficially in corporate social responsibility yet trumpet those efforts to eager consumers and investors.

...Memo To: Outside CPA From: CC: Manager Date: April 25, 2011 Re: CPA Report Below I have summarized an explanation to the questions that came about during your examination of a subsidiary that has been set up as a corporation. • The methodology used to determine deferred taxes. The deferred taxes reported are a temporary difference. The deferred taxes were calculated based on what needed to be reported versus what has been posted to the corporations’ books. The “temporary difference is the difference between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its reported (carrying or book) amount in the financial statements, which will result in taxable amounts or deductible amounts in future years” (Kieso, el. 2007, Ch. 19). The corporation has taken the balance sheet approach to account for this timing issue and SFAS 109 guidelines have been followed. • The procedures for reporting accounting changes and error corrections. According to Kieso, Weygandt, and Warfield (2007, Ch. 22), and the Financial Accounting Standards Board [FASB], reporting accounting changes should be done using the retrospective approach. The retrospective approach reflects the changes done in previous financial statements so that they are more comparable. To report these changes first the corporation adjusts each prior period financial statements and then the corporation “adjusts the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the first year presented”...
