The purpose of this experiment was to identify which brand of mint gum holds its flavor the longest. The four brands I chose were Orbit, Trident, Ice Breakers, and Wrigley's Doublemint My hypothesis was that Trident brand would last the longest and Wrigley's Doublemint would last the shortest. I did not use any people in my test. I chewed the same amount of gum at a time and the gum was all the same flavor, mint. All the gum was bought at the same time from the same store. I chewed the four brands of gums between periods of time. When chewing, I timed myself with a stopwatch. When I believed the gum ran out of flavor, I stopped the timmer and recorded the time. My hypothesis was incorrect. Instead of Trident, Orbit lasted the longest. However
One topic that is a big part in the experiment, testing how reaction time is affected by the influence of peppermint candy, is reaction time. Reaction time can be defined as the amount of time an organism takes to respond to stimulus, or a thing or event that evokes a specific functional reaction in an organ or tissue. For example, the International Encyclopedia of The Social Sciences explained reaction time
Their back and their hot on the market. Camel has a new product: New Camel Turkish Gold Cigarettes. This product is new on the market but its name is old and well known. Camel cigarettes have been around for many years now, but the Turkish Gold’s are new. This product is most definitely a winner. The original Camel cigarettes are a big success and so will these.
...e been beneficial to the experiment. An error may have occurred due to the fact that measurements were taken by different individuals, so the calculations could have been inconsistent.
The experiment consisted of manually brushing tiles for two minutes. However, brushing for exactly two minutes every time is unfeasible, even with the use of a timer. The time of washing after the tile was brushed was not a control and varied. Another potential disruption to the data could include the amount of force used on each tile. For each trial, Crest was brushed first which may potentially mean more force went into brushing that tile, causing it to be the whitest. An additional factor that may have affected the results is the amount of toothpaste. The amount of toothpaste used to brush each tile was most likely different every time which may have contributed to the results. More trials could have been useful for this project as five trials probably was not enough to ensure accurate
The peppermint works because when the scent of the peppermint increases oxygen, and blood pressure. Blood brings oxygen to the brain, and if peppermint increases the amount of oxygen in the blood. It then will increase blood pressure, that means the more oxygen traveling to your brain. The more oxygen the brain recieves or is available tothe better you can concentrate and focus. Taste of peppermint can greatly improve memory and can work faster. Smell of peppermint slightly improves memory.
Going into details of the article, I realized that the necessary information needed to evaluate the experimental procedures were not included. However, when conducting an experiment, the independent and dependent variable are to be studied before giving a final conclusion.
During the experiment, the data I collected was, that Mild maximum change of body temperature was 0.51 with a standard error of measurement of 0.6, and for Hot, the maximum change of body temperature was 0.24 with a standard error of measurement of 0.21. The data from the experiment shows that it did not support my hypothesis, but it falsifies the hypothesis instead. Instead of spicy foods cause these symptoms because it raises your body temperature, the spicy foods cause these symptoms because of a chemical reaction. Spicy foods contain capsaicin which can cause the results of the observes we made, like a running nose, stomach ache, sweat and thirst. The backup hypothesis in this experiment was correct because capsaicin is the reason behind the symptoms we experience when eating spicy foods.
The research our experiment was founded on was that carried out by Taylor and Faust (1952). They carried out an experiment on 105 student’s, which was designed in the method of the game ‘twenty questions’. The students were split into teams of one member, two members and four members. They were then told that the experimenter would keep an object in mind whether it is animal vegetable or mineral was also stated, and they were then allowed 20 questions and guesses to reveal the identity of the object. In there experiment they found that the group of two members performed better than the group of four members in terms of how many guesses and questions it took them and how long it took them to deduce the identity of the object. However Taylor and Faust found that the efficiency did not differ in any significant way.
You might guess it’s a custom dreamed up by a modern-day, real-life Willy Wonka, but people have been chewing gum, in various forms, since ancient times. There’s evidence that some northern Europeans were chewing birch bark tar 9,000 years ago, possibly for enjoyment as well as such medicinal purposes as relieving toothaches. The ancient Maya chewed a substance called chicle, derived from the sapodilla tree, as a way to quench thirst or fight hunger, according to “Chicle: The Chewing Gum of the Americas” by Jennifer P. Mathews. The Aztecs also used chicle and even had rules about its social acceptability. Only kids and single women were allowed to chew it in public, notes Mathews. Married women and widows could chew it privately to freshen their breath, while men could chew it in secret to clean their teeth.
Chocolate made the journey from Mesoamerica to Spain, and then to other European countries, including England. Not long after the sweetness was tasted in London, it traveled across the Atlantic to the North American colonies. It is possible to have traveled there directly from Jamaica after the island had been seized from Spain. However, the most genuine explanation is that high Colonial officials carried it with them when they were assigned to their administrative posts in Virginia and Massachusetts.
In Middle School, before taking a big test teachers would always hand out peppermint or a piece of gum. The purpose behind this seemed unclear. However, from further research their was interesting facts about peppermint candy and Big Red cinnamon flavored gum. Peppermint candy is made with the oil of peppermint, which is extracted from the peppermint plant. This is why the candy can have some of the same effects as the oil itself. People believe the brain effects associated with peppermint are related to the scent of the peppermint, rather than the ingestion of it.
The purpose of the lab is to find the change in velocity and acceleration of the toy car. We predicted that as the distance the car will travel the longer it will take to get there. We also predicted that graphs for speed and acceleration will be the same and will have a constant motion. After taking data and recording the different trials our prediction was sort of true. As the distance increases the time increases as well. For example 60 cm took an average of 1.28 seconds, 70 cm took an average of 1.508 seconds, 80 cm took an average of 1.89 seconds, 90 cm took an average of 2.076 seconds, and 100 cm took an average of 2.34. We were correct when we predicted that the graph for speed and acceleration would both have a constant motion because
Peppermint Candy, a film by Yi Ch’ang-Dong (Lee Chang-Dong) is an interesting movie that is full of dramatic events. It emphasizes the great effects of the Korean dictatorship on the society. It left a huge impact on the Korean society and history. It is a film that relates recent Korean history through the protagonist’s personal history. It tells us about the life of Korean society for the past twenty years through the adventure of a protagonist, Young-ho. Throughout this film, we can understand why the main character Young-ho, has a twisted personality and how the choice of technique can influence the story of the film.
For my project I choose to show the difference that wearing spikes can make on a runners short sprinting speed. For this experiment I asked for 10 volunteers from the school track and field team to assist me. One-by-one the athletes would sprint (full speed) 50 meters without spikes on and i would record their times. Then after about 5 mins rest they would be asked to put on their spikes and sprint another 50 meters with me recording their times. Then the two times will be compared together for each athlete, to show if running with spikes affects the times that the athletes run. Having 10 athletes run 50 meters (full speed each time) one at a time with tennis shoes on, and record their times for each run (as it is only me timing and in order to get accurate times for each athlete they can only run one at a time.
