HELP with my designed experiment! I am not sure if its a controlled experiment?? PLEASE ANSWER?

My experiment in the beginning was to test the toxicity of vitamin c on cells. I used two different types of vitamin c: (lab grade) sodium L-ascorbate and store-brought vitamin c crystals. I placed paramecium into culture jars then in each jar i put one type of vitamin concentration. The concentrations i used were: 10000, 5000, 1000, 500, 100 and distilled water control and a control with just paramecium.


See Im wondering if i made a mistake and made this experiment a 2 variable experiment with the 2 types of vitamin c (being the first) and the different concentrations (being the second) since i was testing how toxic vitamin c can be to paramecium cells.


So is this a 2 variable experiment or controlled and if so how can i change it to make it a controlled experiment??? Thank you!!!


Im sorry but im very pressed for time so if you could help me in anyway TODAY that would save my life because i have a paper im writing on my research so i truly need to knoHELP with my designed experiment! I am not sure if its a controlled experiment?? PLEASE ANSWER?
Your design is controlled, but with multiple subgroups. Using two forms of vitamin C is the least of the confounding variables, and the results of your study would have been only a starting point for further study rather than a definitive study in any case, so you needn't beat yourself up over this one.

*rolls eyes*IS DISCRIMINATION IS HUMAN CONTROLLED OR A WAY DESIGNED BY GOD/S TO CHECK ON PERFORMANCES OF PEOPLE@ONE SCALE?
I entirely agree with your premise and must say that you have set forth your arguments in a cogent ,understandable format. There are a couple of items that I, with your permission, would like to bring to your attention. My I suggest that when your make reference to the President of our country , your spell his name in capitals, and in your last sentence, you have spelt USA in lower case. Other than that,we are in full agreement with you. And thank you for your contribution.
does anyone understand this? i dont : /
It's exactly this kind of clear thinking, coherent and rational question that makes Conservatives such an intelligent and viable force for civil discourse on important issues.

Are the controls on the Canadian/U.S. border designed to keep out American illegals?

Canada is one of the most civilised countries I've ever been to. Do they have the strict controls to keep out an influx of unemployed, under educated Americans to protect national their identity?





God Save the Queen!Are the controls on the Canadian/U.S. border designed to keep out American illegals?
Ok, now you're getting personal, have over-stepped


your bounds and I, as a proud American, take offense


at your attempt at defamation and calumny of my Country.Are the controls on the Canadian/U.S. border designed to keep out American illegals?
its to satisfy american paranoia because they still beleive that STUPID story that the stupid moron of a president (bush) put out on sept 12th that the terrorists came into USA from canada - which was a total LIE.


All the terrorists came into USA throuigh USA entry points - most of them had visas and most of them came in through JFK.


But the US government still beleives their own lie ands wants to think that the terrorists came in through canada because the US government refuses to admit that THEY ALLOWED the terrorists in. Its a case of blame someone else for their mistakes.


Thats why the US have such strict control on their borders.


Thats why tourism is dropping so fast because visitors do not like being treated like crap the way the TSA treat visitors .


Fingerprints, photos, eye scans, and bio scans - I am not going to give my personal information to a government that thinks I MIGHT be a terrorist.
No, the controls are in place to keep the foolish, uneducated Canadians out of America.





Border Patrol/Control on the US/Canadian border is in place to control entry to, and exit from both nations.





And you can keep the inbred royal family.
Yes, that is the purpose of that border. I also visited Canada and the people there are very nice. Really they look more peaceful and friendlier than the people in the USA.
It is designed to keep terrorists out of the USA who have traveled through Canada.No one wants to keep Canadians out.
I doubt their intentions are specifically designed to keep out Americans but rather keep out anyone who is entering Canada from America.





Happy Law Month :)
No, it's to keep out the Mexican illegals that the U.S. keeps trying to push further and further north.
its to keep canadians out.
Definately
Very interesting, good point! could be, could be not, things that make you go hummm?

    Designing a controlled experiment?

    With two nearby ponds in a forest as your study site, how would you design a controlled experiment to measure the effect of falling leaves on net primary production in a pond?Designing a controlled experiment?
    i did not quite understand the hypothesis that you are testing. so my answer may be wrong but just giving it a try...





    but perhaps you can use one of the ponds as your test and the second as a control.





    you can measure the primary production in the 1st pond with falling leaves and with the second pond you must have no leaves falling into (somehow cover the pond with nets or have leaf catchers)





    so you can now see the difference of what happens if the leaves do fall and if they affect the primary production.





    see how you go or may be elaborate your question..





    hope that helps!

    What sensors/controls are designed into the FM radio??? HELP! PLEASEE!!!!?

    I am working on a science project! I'm doing about the FM Radios !


    Im done most of the project but there are couple of questions I didnt answer yet. I googled it but didnt find anything so please help me and answer these questions, any suggestions are helpful too :)





    what material(s) are essential to the device?





    What is scientific principle is central to its operation?





    What sensors/controls are designed into the device?





    THANK YOU!!!What sensors/controls are designed into the FM radio??? HELP! PLEASEE!!!!?
    The kinds of materials used are no different to most other electrical devices. These are conductive metals like copper and aluminium and insulating materials like PVC plastic and mica.





    Central to its operation is the detection of radio (electromagnetic) waves of a certain small range of frequency. For this an antenna or aerial is used. The slight differences in the frequency must also be detected. These differences are taken for comparison with the average in order to produce an output which is the signal needing to be amplified and modified for transmission as a sound-wave.





    Thus the sensor is a device that compares frequencies and the control is the means of finding the small range of frequencies where a signal is being sent.What sensors/controls are designed into the FM radio??? HELP! PLEASEE!!!!?

    I need help in designing a temperature and humidity controlled chamber.?

    I have a metal chamber that is 43in x 29in (32in tall), where the bottom is covered with about 3in of sand to grow bacteria. I want to be able to control temperature (5-50C) and humidity (10-90%), and I need help in designing the system. I would also like to be able to cycle the changes throughout the day to mimic day/night conditions, e.g. low T high H at night, high T low H during the day.





    Secondly, I need to have some UV lamps (UVA %26amp; UVB) in there, to approximate the effect of the sun since UV plays a role in bacterial growth.





    Nothing needs to be precise, I鈥檓 just trying to replicate growing conditions in the desert. And I don鈥檛 have the budget to buy a fancy chamber, so I鈥檓 looking for a solution that I can throw together. If the unit(s) is small enough, it can live inside the chamber, otherwise I can set it outside.





    My engineering training is more theoretical, so I have no experience in basic design/equipment.





    Any advice would be appreciated.I need help in designing a temperature and humidity controlled chamber.?
    Perhaps the easiest way to do this would be with a board installed in a computer, such as a Lab PC from National Instruments. You can then input the temperature and humidity from sensors in the oven as a feedback loop, and use the outputs from the Lab PC card to control heating elements and the injection of moisture if necessary.





    You will also need a source of dry air or dessicating stacks to remove moisture, some sort of internal or external heating elements, which could include IR lamps or restive heaters, and some method to cool the air.





    If youare going down to 5 degrees C, you will need something more than radiaive cooling for your system, and will need to provide an actual cooling system which usually means a compressor type system with a refrigerant.





    The Lab PC board is quite versatile and allows for multiple outputs to enable the various elements that you are talking about. You'll need to come up with the various algorithms to control slope and such, but these can be found in various places as well.





    If you need help, give me a yell via email; I've worked with such systems for a number of years.

    Was college designed by rich people, for rich people, in order to control the knowledge and thus the power?

    I realize a lot of poor people go to college, and some make it out okay. Then again, some go completely bankrupt trying to pay back $40,000 student loans (or more) plus all the interest.Was college designed by rich people, for rich people, in order to control the knowledge and thus the power?
    An undergraduate cirruculum today completes what once was included in a high school eduction.Was college designed by rich people, for rich people, in order to control the knowledge and thus the power?
    No i wouldn't say it was made for rich people but it was definetly created to make people rich, think about textbooks.
    That's the way the world works, my friend. The rich get richer and the poor get poorer.
    Well, yeah it was created by the rich, however I think at some point this might backfire. I mean if they don't get us through the loans I mean... But I gotta say I'm making it through college without taking any loans yet (l'm a senior)





    I mean I worked my freakin but off to stay loan free though, I didn't take the easy way there. I work full time and go to school full time. It's not easy but I rather suffer now than suffer later with those pesky loan interests.
    Yes I think so. We have a $50,000.00 in student loans for my daughters college. We are going to slip the cost. I think the people that get the biggest shaft is the middle class. They say you make too much money for financial aide but we have to live on that money as well.
    I agree, I still haven't got two of my books yet. IDK when I will have the money to get them.
    Yup.





    To FlowerChild: in some countries healthcare IS free (Canada [I'm Canadian]).
    I completely agree. EDUCATION AND HEALTH CARE SHOULD BE FREE!!!! College loans are the #1 reason for young people having debt these days. It's ridiculous and I shun the entire industry.
    school wasn't made by rich people-


    the first schools were the schools of philosophy.


    college is just an extension of non-obligatory schooling.


    some are incredibly expensive, community ones instead are affordable. plus, countries like italy are countries where universities aren't expensive.


    about the knowledge.. school generally controls knowledge to me, not just college. although this isn't s statement you can make for all schools.
    good information
    I am a student studying in London UK, I am Tens of Thousands of Pounds (not dollars) in debt! I come from a 'poorer than most' background... and I really have to come out of University with a Large Paycheck... otherwise I am screwed.


    Meanwhile the rich people get the penthouse apartment in the student halls, so that when they go to the toilet it seems like they are excreting on us poorer students.


    This is how life is I guess...

    What goverment organization controls and regulates fishing boat designs?

    MY dad and me are going to build a fishing boat but we dont know who do we have to talk first in order to get our design approvedWhat goverment organization controls and regulates fishing boat designs?
    Are you going to take out passengers? If you take out more then 6 passengers for hire you need to have the boat built and inspected to USCG standards. If it is for personal use you do not have to have it inspected. The DMV has no authority over boat construction or usage, other then registration in many states. There are many companies that sell plans and kits for people to make their own boats. Just Google boat plans.What goverment organization controls and regulates fishing boat designs?
    in the united states, it's the United States Coast Guard.





    here's a link to the USCG ';Guide for Backyard Boat Builders';





    but be aware that they only have regulatory authority for boats built by commercial boatbuilders.

    So, clever people designed religion to control the population centuries ago. Why do you believe the lies now?

    Do you really think that a god ';just happened to appear'; that could know and do everything. It is more likely that the Big Bang theory is correct and everything just evolved. All religion does is give hope to the people who do not have the inner strength to overcome or empower those who seek to rule. Just about all wars in the past and probably the future have been over religious ideals. Are you telling me that a god who created every thing was not clever enough to cut out the religious choice and avoid all the misery, death and bloodshed arising from this? Just because clever people, a couple of thousand years ago, fooled the masses then and wrote about it does not mean it is the truth. Look at all the corruption continually uncovered amongst the clergy. they are amongst the worst. Let me make a deal with you religious folks, I will leave you to run you own lives if you leave me to organise my own.So, clever people designed religion to control the population centuries ago. Why do you believe the lies now?
    Those clever people were called ';False Prophets';. They will be called in for questioning. The answers that came out of them are called ';lies';.








    Your sister,


    GingerSo, clever people designed religion to control the population centuries ago. Why do you believe the lies now?
    You fall into the classic trap they might have been a Big Bang but what about before that could it of been a Creator who triggered it? You other point on war is also false in the last century most war was not connected with religion and as Christian i don't believe were just biological machines and we have freewill so the issue of war , death and immorality is due to choices we make and this has gotten worse as a society we have turned away from Christian values. Yes there has been corruption in some churches but that's down to weakness and bad decisions and does not reflect the faith or gospel .Today the control comes from the corrupt state and immoral media which is leading our youth astray greater teenage pregnancies , STDs , broken families , violent crime and much more maybe if you questioned that instead of making dodgy claims about faith it might open your eyes.
    Spot on there, My son.





    I would correct a few of your points;-


    1. The people that got together and wrote the religious texts were not clever (have you read the thing???), they were dubious, unscrupulous and will stop at nothing to achieve their selfish aims yes.





    2. They are still here, these people, they never left. I don't know how they do it, but they do.





    3. Not only did they tamper with our fellowship with God (God actually being Love, tons of orgies back in the day, back in the day being some 200, 000 yrs ago) via their mind numbingling restrictive religion, they also tempereed with our DNA, making us more stupid by day, so that we fall for their ****. Where DNA failed to do the trick, there was war, and so called witch hunts, ethnic cleansing of indigenious tribes in America, Africa and Australia and stuff like that to finish the job.





    4. Proof that they are here - They are still messing with our DNA - GM foods and flouride in water come to mind. Have you heard what these things do to us.





    5. The only way to beat them is LOVE, LOVE AND MORE LOVE. By Love I mean the abscense of Fear.


    Love them, love your mates, love yourself, love life, fear nothing, soon we'll get the upper hand.





    6. You'll find that their so-called gateway to heaven, i.e. Religion, is full of hate. Watch the FUNDAMENTALISTS and observe how much hatred spews from them, you'll see what I mean, they have them hooked and missing the whole picture of LOVE, who is our true God. Their God unbeknowst to them is Fear. Worship me or else, serve me or else, do this or else, don't do that or else.





    But keep searching for the truth, you're nearly there already. Find a way to fill your heart with Love(Real love, not the romantic mumbo jumbo, or the misunderstood human love that traps and imprisons, I mean the real thing, the one that sets you free. Don't stop until you find it, and when you do, you'll know).
    Ooops! The cassock's gonna hit the fan now! Well said!
    Your premise is false on it's face, and will do you absolutely no good.





    You don't know the truth, even though it's always been there for you to see.





    Wise up before it's too late.
    ';All religion does is give hope to the people who do not have the inner strength to overcome or empower those who seek to rule';





    That's just silly.How would you know my inner strength,and how can you judge whether I am capable of overcoming rulers.





    ';Just about all wars in the past and probably the future have been over religious ideals.';





    Not true.The World Wars weren't about religion.Vietnam wasn't about religion.East Timor wasn't about religion.The Korean War wasn't about religion.





    ';Are you telling me that a god who created every thing was not clever enough to cut out the religious choice and avoid all the misery, death and bloodshed arising from this?';





    God gave us free will.Would you rather be a puppet on a string?





    ';Just because clever people, a couple of thousand years ago, fooled the masses then and wrote about it does not mean it is the truth.';





    I have never said that my religion was true just because 'someone wrote about it',and I am getting tired of the contant accusations that I am being controlled or fooled.Christianity was not founded on the idea that they could gain control-they were being killed off as martyrs for several hundred years!





    ';Look at all the corruption continually uncovered amongst the clergy. they are amongst the worst.';





    That's like saying that just because an atheist might lie,all atheists are liars.
    Don't confuse religion with a personal relationship with God. The idea of religion is to establish an institution for worship and fellowship with others as you maintain your personal relationship with God. The problem is ignorant people understand robotically following rituals rather than the meaning and purpose behind them and so other people took advantage of it. Politics did the same thing.





    Oh yeah, and not believing in the possibility of God is saying that one day science will not discover God exists. Assuming you know more than any scientist who will ever live is as ignorant as it sounds. After all, people used to think the world was flat and couldn't grasp that the earth is not the center of the universe despite all their science at the time. Not to mention the fact that most science about the Big Bang is theory derived from looking at stars millions of miles away with no real experiementation or proving of theory - just like beliefs about God.

    did God create man - or did man create God?





    it would certainly be a good way to control the masses. the law system is worked around the 10 commandments are they not?





    we will never know......
    Putting your faith in the Big bang will not give you eternal life pal.





    I hope you are smart enough to figure that out...maybe not.





    Jesus promised eternal life to those who repent of their sins and believe what he did on the cross....its your choice...





    Eternal death....or eternal life......you make the decision. No one else will care ...have a wonderful eternity.





    As for us ...we have already made our decision for Christ....all your babeling will not change that.
    i think everything happens for a purpose, misery, death and bad things happens because of sin. and clergy? they're human not God, so they made mistakes.





    with religion, i have hope for a better life and i enjoy it ^_^ maybe people can't see the advantages of a religion but i personally can FEEL it in my heart.
    Contraversial.... but good question. I'm just waiting to see what answers you get.
    I DON'T, but a lot of people who do have been told by everyone close to them (parents, religious folk, teachers, even their peers) that it's all true, so why would they listen to strangers on the Internet telling them they have been lied to by everyone they care about, they wouldn't, even though there is no evidence to substantiate the religious bollocks, they will still pass the lies to their own kids and so it continues with the next generation.
    Totally agree, youre an aethiest. The book below is a good read.

    Atheists: If the universe has no creator, then why is the moon designed to perfectly control the tides?

    if the tides raised one foot higher or one foot lower, you would still call it perfect.





    if the tides raised 100 foot higher, or 100 feet lower, you would just move away from the coast and still call it perfect.





    why is everything you see perfect just because you can see it?Atheists: If the universe has no creator, then why is the moon designed to perfectly control the tides?
    What makes you think the moon is ';designed'; at all? There's no evidence that even remotely suggests that.





    All bodies that are close together in space and moving induce tidal forces on each other. The moon *induces* our ocean tides, but doesn't ';control'; them. And our gravity raises tidal forces on the moon as well. Since there's no ocean on the moon, those tidal forces are manifested in the moon's crust, and are one of the causes of ';moonquakes.'; The instruments the Apollo astronauts left on the moon confirm this.


    Titan causes tidal forces on Saturn and vice-versa; Europa causes tidal forces on Jupiter and vice-versa. Our own moon's effect on tides is nothing special -- it's just gravity, not ';design.';


    By the way, the moon hasn't always been at its present distance from the earth, and the tides haven't always been the same. A couple billion years ago, the tides were considerably stronger, and often wreaked havoc on coastal areas...but the large tides probably also helped marine creatures make the transition to land. If the tides then had been the strength they are now, you probably wouldn't be here. No design, just nature :)





    Peace.Atheists: If the universe has no creator, then why is the moon designed to perfectly control the tides?
    The tides use to be much higher than they are now and they are continuing to slowly diminish.


    If you wanted ask an ';intelligent'; question about the magic of the Moon, how about the fact that it exits at all and that without it Earth's orbit would perturb greatly thus limiting the way life has evolved on the planet.
    It was created perfectly, and the orbit of the moon drifting away from the earth disproves evolution according to information published by that religious cult known as NASA:





    http://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/SEhelp/Apol…





    It's buried at the bottom of the page at the beginning of the last paragraph: Data also indicate that ocean tides on Earth have a direct influence on the Moon's orbit. Measurements show that the Moon is receding from Earth at a rate of about 3.8 centimeters per year.





    How does this disprove evolution? Easy if you get out your calculator. How old does evolution claim the earth is? 4.5 BILLION years? http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/faq-age-…





    Now multiply 3.8 centimeters per year by 4.5 BILLION years and bring the earth and moon closer together by this distance, and, WELLA, you've just destroyed them both.





    Guess what? Do the calculations again, only this time, go by the Biblical age of the earth as listed in the Genealogical records in Genesis 5, 11, 13 and Matthew 1. (About 6,000 years, depending on the length of a generation). No sweat. How come evolutionists can't handle a little math and physics with their ';science';?
    That's a strange way of looking at it, it controls the tides because its there if it wasn't we would be saying look how placid the waters are someone designed it perfectly that way.


    Makes me wonder if some people are amazed at diseases and how perfectly designed they are to plague us, or how perfectly designed the sun is to give us sunburn.
    Its not it was a big chunk of meteor that just so happend to land right where it is. Free falling towards earth. any rock could have landed there and be the cause of our tides.





    Lets face it any question you throw at me like these Im going to have an alternate ansewer for.
    It is important to inform you that the existence of a creator would not prove why the moon control the tides. However, the question is an excellent example of a red herring logical fallacy, so snaps for you.
    Actually, it's not perfectly designed to - it is slowly moving away from the Earth - it will eventually (millions of years) get far enough away to where it will no longer affect the tides.
    By the Beingness of all that is intelligent in the Cosmos, I do like your questions.





    Tell me what beverage you consume in preperation for your sessions of brilliance and I will send a case for all these here that they may understand as you and I do.
    Tides are perfect? If thats the case, why do they fluctuate in height??





    Also, youre looking at it from teh wrong direction. The moon wasnt designed, it was a piece of earth that broke off in a collision with a large asteroid.
    Because the aliens who towed it here 10,500 years ago set it there so it would eclipse the sun just perfectly, and it has the side effect of controlling the tides.
    Atheists were taught in school that we all come from apes. They will never understand the things of God unless they repent.





    To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honor and glory and power, for ever and ever! Jesus is Lord.
    Did you ever stop to think that there would only be a solar tide if the moon wasn't there. It wasn't created for the purpose of the tides even in the Bible it was as a light at night.





    Read your book dear.
    Ah, the argument from ';if everything was different, nothing would be the same.';





    Look, this is superstition. You are intent on seeing agency where others see coincidence, chance, or natural forces.
    If you guys keep it up I'm going to have a Bingo soon.
    if the universe wasnt designed, why are mosquitos designed perfectly to carry malaria?





    edit: some species only btw.
    It wasn't designed to control the tides. That's like saying ice was designed to be cold.
    The moon or any moon was not designed. What's so perfect about the tides anyway?





    Next you'll be telling us that our Earth was designed so perfectly with oxygen and an ozone layer etc!!
    The moon is not designed, Nor is it perfect. Try picking up a science book and discovering how the moon effects the oceans.. shesh.
    Okay, I guess you think gravity is god, then?





    LOL *drinks more absinthe*





    You guys are really doing a stellar job of keeping everyone guessing!





    Hee hee!





    *finishes glass of absinthe*
    You start off wrong by saying ';designed';. The earth took a very long time to become sustainable enough for life to grow.... that's one well thought out design ha?
    What's so perfect about it? It's gravitational pull. When two masses are near each other, they exert an attractive force. happens all over the solar system.
    How about you take a high school level Oceanography class?


    Then you can talk about this again.
    Dude, you live far from the ocean, I bet, the tides are far from perfect.





    Try the science section, under ';gravity';
    Oh yeah, those destructive tsunamis-- so perfect.
    How did you determine that the tides are perfect? They certainly are not convenient...
    Tell my sister how the tides are perfect. Her daughter was killed by a riptide. She no longer believes in God.
    It's not. What makes you think it was designed for any purpose? Why do you only ask loaded questions?
    rigth section, they cannot explain hahaha, we evolved from monkeys!!!








    oh noes not the thumbs down!! =(.





    1. How did the Universe Originate?





    Many atheists believe matter and energy originated from nothing. But the First Law of Thermodynamics states matter and Energy is neither created nor destroyed, '; thus atheists violate this Law of Science.





    2. How did Order Originate?





    The 2nd Law of Thermodynamics states a system (like the Universe) will go from Order to Disorder over time. But atheists argue the Universe went from chaos and disorder (a big bang) to an orderly Universe.





    3. How did Life Originate?





    Atheists believe living organisms first arose from nonliving matter. However the Law of Biogenesis and the Cell Theory states: ';Life only comes from life.'; Thus atheists violate these foundations of Biology.





    4. Was there a Cause for People?





    The Law of Causality states: Every effect must have a cause. ';Atheists would argue there was a cause for a pencil, but they argue there was no cause for people. Thus atheists violate the Law of Causality.





    5. Everyone knows Mount Rushmore was the result of intelligent design. Do you think the human body is the result of intelligent design?





    Laws of science show that it takes more faith to be an atheist then it does to believe in God
    WHY? is the one question that only God can answer as regards anything at all.


    Science can only answer HOW things happen.





    examples:


    Q to scientist:


    Why are there tides?





    A from scientist:


    The gravitaional pull of the moon causes them.





    Think for a second. That answer is not WHY, that is HOW.





    Let's try another?





    Why do I fall down when I drink too much?





    Because the alcohol chemically supresses.....





    That is also a HOW not a WHY.





    Try some yourself...





    Note:


    Only a conscious free willed being capable of communication can ever answer a WHY question....So, WHY is there anything?





    Therefore God must exist.
    The atheist would deny God if he was here and confronted


    them,Satan has so much power over them that he


    will not let them see any thing but him.

    I have to design a controlled experiment. for the N1H1 strain for my biology class?

    It says the lable is NURI-34 I cant use humans and i have to write no more then 5 sentences summarizing how you would test this compound.


    1. what is the experimental variable in the experiment?


    2. what is the control in the experiment?


    3. should a placebo be used in this experiment (why why not)


    4. how many subjects


    5. what does the term basic (or base) mean in the context.





    well i know since i cant use humans i was thinking about using pigs, so that would mean i should not use the placebo because how can you on pigs? Is the experimental variable the NUR!-34 I missed the first two classes where my instructer talked about because i did not register until later. Not sure where to start PLEASE help!!!





    Thank you!!!I have to design a controlled experiment. for the N1H1 strain for my biology class?
    The variable would be anything that varies between the subjects. This could be inoculation dose of the virus, the vaccine, etc. You will always have controls. That is an animal that recieves the same treatment as the rest of the animals except what you are testing (if you are testing a vaccine, the control does not recieve the vaccine, but, does recieve a ';sham'; vaccine which has all of the ingredients of the vaccine except the antigen).





    You can think of your control as recieving the ';placebo';.





    I would suggest using ferrets rather than pigs. Ferrets are much better


    human analogs.





    The number of subjects is hard to pin down. You want enough to see if you have a statisticaly valid result, but, not so many that you run into cost/animal welfare issues. 5-10 per treatment group is normal.





    I am guessing that ';Base'; would be base line data. That would be taking measurements (temperature, blood, etc) prior to inoculation.





    I hope this helps.

    How do i design and build a remote controlled helicopter that will fly?

    Why don't you buy a kit like a raptor r/c helicopter? They are very complex and trying to build one from scratch may take years. I have three so I know how they work, and there are a lot of small parts. If you insist on building one from scratch, I would first know how they work and second try to make it very simple. I would highly recommend you buy a kit, or if money is an issue they sell one call Blade CP that comes ready to fly with everything you need in one box for around $200. I have one and it is a great starter helicopter.





    I would also recommend you find a local flying field near your home and talk to some pilots out there. They are usually friendly and eager to give advice to you. This is an awesome hobby and I hope you get into it if you aren't already. You may be surprised what they can do if you haven't seen them fly or flown one. I can't tell if your a newbie to the hobby or a pro, so I figured I would give some advice if your new. If not, I'm sorry I couldn't answer your question better. Good luck and e-mail me if you have any more questions @ meflyfaster@yahoo.com.

    Are the Watchtower study methods designed to secure mind control?

    I was told that the leader reads a paragraph or two from one of its publications and asks questions on what has been read. Then the students are to answer by repeating a portion of the previous paragraph. Your own interpretation is not accepted. Is that even true?





    I was told they force people to give the answer they desire, in their propagandizing process. This gets a person into the habit of repeating only what was written and no longer thinking for himself, leaving the publications to do the thinking for him.





    Is it that important to get their members to the place where they cannot think for themselves??Are the Watchtower study methods designed to secure mind control?
    I was married to a JW and I can speak from experience, it is a mind control religion. The thing you must know is that they do not give Deity to Jesus. They have some very good verses to trick one into feeling their way. Remember this, the Bible teaches that to not give Deity to Jesus, is the very definition of the spirit of the antichrist.





    God be with you.

    Do you know what is funny as heck? When someone who is not a regular witness tries to answer one of the Questions at a meeting....They usually will not call on an outsider but if perchance they do, and the answer is not what is written down in the watchtower, it is funny! You usually have a few elders re-direct to the proper answer.





    Tinky: Myself and all the Christians will keep your family in our prayers. That is really what this is all about. Protection lambs from a spiritual wolf.
    yes but they suffer from the fatal flaw that presumes that such people have a mind in the first place
    Nina, i can't answer your question, but i hope you won't mind if i say after reading these excellent answers i feel i must respond.


    Thardus's post has shaken me. I had a few emails from a JW on here and my experience was very upsetting, and i am very strong in my faith and relationship with the Lord. I agree with Thardus - he says to pray and be aware of how they will reason you into believing their right by using your own Bible against you - this is exactly my experience - also, i identify with other posts here. I have two cousins ages 21 and 23 who work for a company which is run by JW's and just felt compelled to pray for them - can i ask you and everyone who reads this post and agrees with me to pray for their protection - and even to find new jobs out of it all together. Much appreciated - thanks..
    Anything that is done over and over again is a form mind control, thats how I was trained in the US Army, I was trained so well that i didn't have to think i reacted.
    I am currently in this type of Bible study, of my own will. I am a Christian, and I'll try to objectively report on this topic. First off, it is important to get their members to a place where they won't think for themselves. It's not that they can't think for themselves, it's that they won't. Keep that in mind as I divulge about the study itself.





    They are using their own literature called, ';What Does the Bible Really Teach?” to 'study' the Bible. The biggest thing we have to remember as Christians is that the Bible is sufficient. We don't need anything else to teach us about our faith. The Bible makes some ideas clear, like the trinity (Father, Son/Jesus and Holy Spirit are all God).





    A big deal about their study is that they don't accept your thinking unless it corresponds to the thinking of the Watchtower, as revealed in the book. They definitely don't make it obvious, though. They will reason you into thinking what they are the book are saying is true. It's not force, per se-rather they will get the answer out of you in their propagandizing process. That is why one must be in constant prayer when dealing with them. Repetition is part of the process, because what they say may seem alluring.





    One big thing they like to tout is the idea of that you can ';Live Forever in Paradise on Earth';, which is contrary to Biblical teachings about the afterlife, in a sense. They want to make you feel good with beliefs like this. They want to make you feel like there's something in life for you because of God. They want you to serve Jehovah (rather, serve their organization because they believe they are appointed by Jehovah to be God's only earthly authority on the Bible and spirituality) to better yourself.





    You should follow God and become a Christian not to better yourself and your life, but to serve the God who created you-the God who is letting you live, the God who died for your sins so that you wouldn't have to in eternity. This is the power of Christ, the Father and the Holy Spirit. That's an idea that many Christians seem to lose focus of. We shouldn't need anything but the Bible for spiritual guidance, and we don't have to serve an organization for salvation. Salvation is through Jesus Christ alone-by grace through faith.





    One should keep all these things in mind when dealing with them. I even carry my own Bible to the study, because you wouldn't trust a misinterpreted news story any more than you shouldn't trust a misinterpreted Bible. That's what their translation is-purposefully mistranslated, mainly so that they can push ideas of the trinity out of the Bible. That's something I can't get past. They teach against the trinity, but then they go and change passages like Exodus 3:14 and John 1:1, and push the idea of Jehovah working alone in his work without the truth of the trinity-three in one, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Of course, if you get on this topic they will use your Bible against you, but I think it is the principle that matters-they teach against something but it is of their own accord that their teaching can hold true.





    Simply put, in terms of mind control, it is done very subtly. It's not really until you are stuck in the organization that it is exerted. They discourage independent thinking, but that's only natural-after all, why should people think for themselves...it's rather ridiculous. Of course people shouldn't think for themselves, and of course it's dangerous in the eyes of the organization. Independent thinking would allow someone to discover the truth behind the Bible and about the organization. I hope you found this long answer helpful!
    yes


    and also


    participating at the meetings is a MUST. If we don't raise our hand and give a comment during the meetings, we are seen as spiritually weak and that we don't care for the meetings Jehovah has provided. It is specially hard for us introverted witnesses.





    i know that that this is off the subject but it relates to mind control
    Here's a test:





    Does it promote religion?





    If the answer is 'yes' then it's for mind control.
    Did you know Charles Tazz Russell is the founder of JW's? He is the one that created the watchtower.
    there is no outside interpretation of their written material that's agreed upon in these meetings, for sure. questions are asked and the answerer who has questions or disagrees with the premise is encouraged/corralled by the brother at the podium into eventually agreeing with the answer given in the publication, even if they had valid argument against it. Usually no one even ever brings up valid argument at public meetings when the microphone is put to their face, that is saved for private question time with their spiritual elder. Mostly answers are given like schoolchildren in school, to show you know the answer. It's important to the collective to appear unified, and even if they have question, it's not heated debate, by any means.
    watch some people give an answer like ';every religion uses mind control';
    Of course it is NOT true.





    The articles are written in such a way that makes us think and meditate.


    There are many people who like to read the Watchtower and Awake! who are not Witnesses. They appreciate them for the information they find there.





    Every article has quoted verses, ideas based solely on the Bible, verses mentioned in brackets and at the end of the paragraphs.





    We should not trust everything we hear. We must make sure that the information we receive is from a reliable source. Consider what the next verse says:





    ';Anyone inexperienced puts faith in every word, but the shrewd one considers his steps.'; -- Proverbs 14:15








    http://www.watchtower.org/e/20060401a/ar…


    http://www.watchtower.org/e/20000622/art…
    Yes they are. It's how satan cements peoples eyes shut. HOWEVER...you can ALWAYS circumnavigate the brain (place of argument) and speak directly to the conscience. Jesus did it all the time. Not matter you run into a counterfiet christianity or different religion, or athesim...the consciounce in EVERY human being agrees with God. Shock and awe them out of that pattern. Here are some hints...





    Jesus and the woman at the well...





    Jesus and the rich young ruler...





    Ps. 19:7, Rom. 2:15, 1 Tim. 1:8, Rom. 7:7, Gal. 3:24





    The Ten Commandments shatters satans cement....I've used it them several times and seen the effects....it's awesome!
    Your description was right on. It's a brainwashing process, and most JW's don't even realize it's been done to them. Even if they begin to question something, they are quickly guilt-tripped into getting ';back in line';, and/or threatened with disfellowshipment.





    Welcome to cultism.
    I have a JW co-worker.You described the few meetings I've been to, to a ';T';. They stick to what they are reading verbatim.Yes, I think its a control method.
    no,speak not of what you do not know.
    Thats not true, You can answer from the paragraph if you like but you can also give an answer in your own words. It does not have to be word from word from the paragraph, but of course you'd want to stick to the subject at hand when giving an answer.

    How do I add a volume control/mute button to a web page I am designing(using Microsoft Publisher 2002)?

    I am using Microsoft Publisher 2002 (Part of Pffice XP for Small Business-2002) to build the web site %26amp; I know very little about what I am doing. Each page has a background midi playing %26amp; I want to give the person veiwing the page the ability to control the midi volume or mute it completely directly from the web page. Can this be done. THANKS!!!How do I add a volume control/mute button to a web page I am designing(using Microsoft Publisher 2002)?
    No, this cannot be done. It is also worth noting that midi playback is dependent upon a plugin. This may well be standard in Internet Explorer, but it sure isn't standard in Firefox 2.





    Therefore you are probably best off all round using a Flash-based music player which has mute and volume functions.





    Having said all that, if you really think that most of your visitors will want to turn the music down or off (which is more likely) then you should reassess your desire for including the midis in the first place. I know that many people's reaction is to close a site completely if it starts making unwanted noises, and that surely can't be what you want to happen.





    Finally, it is worth pointing out that Publisher isn't even the best Office app for making websites. But still, if it's working for you, then best of luck.

    Who designed control logic?

    I think Dick Morley would be the official designer because he developed the PLC in the 1960's and that started the automation trend.

    Who believes RELIGION is designed to CONTROL THE WEAK?

    .








    Designed by those who CONTROL the riches of the world.





    Designed and controlled by those who can GOVERN.





    Designed to be pushed down the throats of those who have simple minds with no complexity of thought or comprehension?











    They who walked the earth first, has primary control of the resources forever. RIGHT?





    WHO OWNS THE EARTH?Who believes RELIGION is designed to CONTROL THE WEAK?
    Yes, yes, yes. A million times YES!Who believes RELIGION is designed to CONTROL THE WEAK?
    Absolutely!!!!!!!!!





    If I were to start a religion, one of my first rules would be DO NOT QUESTION my GOD!!!!





    Well met, my friend.


    Live Well and Long......
    Like all things made by man, Religion eventually becomes corrupted every now and then by the same sorts of people you speak of. It evolved into a tool for Social Control, but it was not designed as one.





    Religion is not essentially evil, rather it is the simpletons and who cannot think beyond their existence and the conniving who manipulate it for their own ends who distort and ruin Religion.
    Who doesn't?
    Julius Caesar, by all standards a successful politician and general, obviously had quite a superior amount of intelligence compared to most of the roman population. He did not believe that the god's controlled his fate BUT...he would tell his soldiers that before battle and that if they had bravery the gods would protect them. Of course the Roman soldiers had 'faith' in him..something pushed into their minds as a good thing but only really something that meant 'do what I tell you w/o having a reason'. So...Julius Caesar was a very good gerneral b/c his troops charged bravely into the enemy lines 'knowing' and 'feeling' the gods' protection. Eventually, science advanced far enough to prove that there was no Zeus in the clouds or Gods on top of Mt. Olympus but the Roman soldiers that died at the hands of Carthaginian, Gallic, Egyptian swords didn't know that, did they?...see! religion is not always a bad thing. Controlling the weak and pushing forward the strong is the sole purpous of it's existence. =:)
    THERE WILL BE SOMEONE WHO WILL CONTROL THE WEAKS .. IF THERE IS A RELIGION OR NOT ..


    BECAUSE THE WEAKS DO WANT THAT ..
    i think you are on to something...we are like puppets to our religion......thats bad..even though we supposdely have a seperation of religion and church we still give church more authority then anything else...
    i think that religion is all a big scam, thats bin around too long, and i have believed this since i asked my pretcher when i was 15 if everything has a beging, where did god come from and if there is a god why cant there be more than one the true answer is that there is no real god it is all just the human need for something more in life and death. religion is based on the faith in something or some one you will never see or meet until you die and once you are dead how are you to prove the existance of a god or not?????
    Lemme guess..you believe in secret codes and conspiracies and that there is a secret government that actually rules the world...am I getting close?


    Stop being so paranoid. Nobody forces anyone to believe in anything. We have free will, remember? If you don't want to believe in God, don't.
    Yeah, that's the way I see all religions. I only (sometimes) believe in god.
    thats a marxist's view, they believe that religion is socially constructed in order to keep the rich, rich and prevent a revolution from the working class. Quotes like '; those who were last, will be first in heaven'; ensures that the poor will not rise up against the class system as they will be rewarded in heaven. Religion was made for the rich to exploit working class people!!!!!
    hell yeah
    It's pretty clear for me that that is the purpose.
    God owns the earth and will recompense those who destroy it after He comes back to protect Israel from the hourdes who want to destroy Israel
    i believe that religion is so contradicting from one to the other and it is one of the world's BIGGEST scams ever.
    The FREE rule themselves and the religious follow others opinions.The religious are still beautiful people,mind you,just hold a lot of fear by being told that if they believe in a certain idol(symbol),ritual,or way of worship and stray off course for a second(as humans do)they will not get into Heaven.Wht the weaker humans do is learn about their Gods and Devils then stay stagnent inside of their fear of them.Never exploring their humanity to follow their own hearts and develop their own ways to worship a Creator.Jesus was trying to tell His followers that by the calm charismatic teachings so that they would see God as who He really truly is.So the peoples would outgrow the memorizing of verses to write them on their hearts instead and congregate into churches to overcome the boundaries of church walls in the long run.To explore religion is reaching for mans ways but exploring the Father in Heaven Himself is reaching for Godlike compliance.He likes this.
    Sure. Separation of state and religion is a recently concept.
    Not only the weak, everyone.
    Religion, like it or not, has a long history of helping man-kind. Ever since the first man-apes saw the mysterious black monolith, we've created rituals to try to figure out our place in the universe and how to get along.





    Your 'explanation' doesn't account for 99.999% of man's religious thoughts or history.





    But thanks for the cliche.
    You know all those images of Jesus leading the sheep?!!!!!








    Maybe Jesus is ';those who control the riches of the world';


    and


    the sheep ';those who have simple minds with no complexity of thought or comprehension';





    BUT we need those sheep or sh*t would happen, like you said SOCIAL Control.





    I have also thought this many times.?!
    I own the earth, of course, but regarding your other question, religion isn't designed. It just sort of happens. Like everything else under the sun, people use it for their own purposes, sleazy or otherwise. I'll give you an analogy. Most people think the Mafia is bad, but Mafia people won't turn down an opportunity to make money just because it happens to be legal. Religion is sort of like that with the good and the bad all mixed up together in an Irish stew.
    How's points going???? Dunno, on your question.
    The Bible actually addresses your perspective and you are not very far off:





    1 Corinthians 1:





    18For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 19For it is written:


    ';I will destroy the wisdom of the wise;


    the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.';[c]


    20Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? 21For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe. 22Jews demand miraculous signs and Greeks look for wisdom, 23but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, 24but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. 25For the foolishness of God is wiser than man's wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man's strength.





    26Brothers, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. 27But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. 28He chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things鈥攁nd the things that are not鈥攖o nullify the things that are, 29so that no one may boast before him. 30It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God鈥攖hat is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption. 31Therefore, as it is written: ';Let him who boasts boast in the Lord.';
    Nietzsche?
    no, the propaganda garbage u eat up on the tv every night is for the weak ... people choose religeon and morality because they have enough intelligence to see the world has no answers ... then there is people like you who think they are intelligent to blame all the worlds problems on a group of people ... ***** original .. and intelligent yeah...
    I think you're partially right. There are those who use religion to control others. It is a powerful influence, to believe you are doing something for a righteous cause, and getting rewarded for it. That's why each must choose their own path.

  • What are flood-control dams designed based on?

    a. Maximum river discharge


    b. Differences in elevation between upstream and downstream locations


    c. The probability of maximum flood events


    d. The extent of urbanization downstreamWhat are flood-control dams designed based on?
    Flood control dams are built to hold back, temporarily, a large portion of the increase in river flow due to heavy rains or snow melt. They increase the amount of flooding upriver from the dam in order to decrease the amount of flooding downstream from the dam. This means that the primary consideration of building a ';flood control dam'; as opposed to a navigational dam, is the estimated maximum river discharge (a).





    Elevation differences (the slope of the river valley) play into how high any dam must be built in order to hold back a certain amount of water (b) and prevent too large a rise in river levels downstream.





    The probability of maximum flood events determines whether there will be a dam built at all for the purposes of ';flood control'; (c). A stream in western Pennsylvania, USA, flooded in 1980 and killed 7 people. The flood was called a ';500 year flood';, meaning that another one like that would not be expected for generations. Since the valley had been settled for over 200 years, and only 7 people died, there was no push to build a ';flood control'; dam in the valley. If the floods happened every year and killed hundreds every year, a dam or system of dams would have been built (though it's usually cheaper to relocate the people and businesses that exist on the flood plain of the river).





    Downstream urbanization often plays a role (d) in the design of flood control dams and whether they are built at all. The Mississippi River is lined with ';flood control'; levees for practically its entire length. Naturally, the river would spread out along its entire length as excess waters from rain and snow ran into it. Because of the buildup of towns, cities and farms along its length, levees have been built to keep the river width the same whether the water levels are high or low. In the 1990's levees were allowed to break near farmland to relieve pressure on the levees protecting the city of St. Louis from floodwaters.


    Flood control dams are built to protect people and property downstream from the dam.





    In effect, all 4 choices play a role in the design and construction of flood control dams. If you get to pick more than one, choose all four and be ready to explain why each applies. If you can only choose one, I'd go with (a), maximum river discharge.





    Of course, as late as this answer has come, you probably don't even need it anymore. Good luck.

    Do you think that GUN CONTROL LAWS are designed to weaken the rights of.....?

    ..........the citizen to defend him/herself?


    In 1997 a young Tasmanian killed 35 people in a massacre. Soon after that the Government approved laws to desarm all citizens. Just because of a single unfortunate incident we all had to be punished by the Government taking away our right of self-defense.


    I hope the citizens of the USA never allow that to happen to them.Do you think that GUN CONTROL LAWS are designed to weaken the rights of.....?
    I think politicians have to show that they are ';doing something'; about guns whenever something like that happens, so they do what is easy - pass a law that will bind law-abiding people - but which is utterly ineffective against the kinds of people who carry out these crimes in the first place.





    It is wildly frustrating to any thinking person.





    We don't need to take Mr. Anderson's deer rifle away, we need to get the illegal $50 guns off the street. That would require relaxing the absurd protections we now afford criminals and all of us against search and seizure.





    Cops should be allowed to pat down anyone, in my opinion. They know who the bad guys are, but they're not allowed to do anything about it. So we get patted down once in a while - no different than airport security - and it would cut down gun crime by 90% - none of these stupid gun control laws impacts actual gun crime at all.Do you think that GUN CONTROL LAWS are designed to weaken the rights of.....?
    Gun control laws were designed to protect citizens, but the fact is that only law-abiding citizens are going to follow the law. This is true not only for gun control, but for every law on the books. Those who are law abiding will not break the law. Criminals will do as they please, law or no law. Hold-up men still rob stores/banks/convenience stores/etc.; burglars still break and enter homes and businesses; murderers still kill people; rapists and muggers still attack people in spite of laws against all of these actions. The problem isn't with the laws; the problem is with people--people who think that the solution to their problems is with a gun, or any other weapon for that matter.
    Inst it people who have the right to defend themselves and dont do so like the ones you mention part of the problem? And then you let our lawmakers establish rules that make it even more against the law to do so and soon nobody knows what and someones kid is laying face down in a pool of blood.


    I read an article that in Guatemala a group of Indians grabbed some bald headed members of a gang and after beating them and setting them on fire went to the other gang members and told them that if they dont turn themselves in right now the same fate would be theirs by morn. Something like 200 or so turned themselves in. Peace certainly wasnt the answer this time.
    There is a huge flaw in the idea of gun control laws that proponents have never been able to answer: gun control laws only act to disarm law-abiding citizens; criminals will always remain armed. This tends to make gun violence worse, not better. It is no coincidence that cities with the strictest gun control laws also have among the highest rates of homicide, for instance our capital, Washington DC.
    no guns no guns no accidents of killing.


    If we have a reason to have guns, then yea. I have no reason. It seems that the bad guys need guns. so then the cops need guys.





    Guns were for hunting and we don't do that anymore and gosh children killing children......we need no guys or much strictuer gun control
    This is the argument that if everybody had guns, there would be no gun crimes. Does that really make sense? I'm not for gun control, but this is a ridiculous argument.
    Gun control laws didn't help the citizens of Nazi Germany either, especially the Jews.
    Gun control laws are an attempt to save lives from being tragically taken.
    Yes, yet another tool in the hands of lawmakers to promote corruption.

    Pls,can someone help me with project topics in control design?

    pls,i need three easy to do topics on control systems and design for my seminar presentation as well as project.thanks.Pls,can someone help me with project topics in control design?
    1.) PID control what is it?


    2.) Control signal standards


    3.) Introduction to PLC controllerPls,can someone help me with project topics in control design?
    Ideas:


    Demo Control using Lego Mindstorms





    Implement and test one of the designs from the four examples in chapter ten of Magrabs ';An Engineers Guide to Matlab';


    - DC motor with flexible shaft


    - Single Axis magnetic suspension system


    - Inverted Pendulum


    - Magnetically Suspended Flywheel
    1. P, PD, PI, PID Controllers


    Demonstrate control using each of above controller types and explain benefits of adding derivative and/or integral gains.





    2. Lead/ Lag Controller


    Compare/contrast with PID. Use frequency response and root locus analysis to explain benefits.





    Apply the above control approaches to some common applications:


    1. Typical 2nd order mass-sping damper


    2. Pendulum (regular or inverted)


    3. Two masses joined by a spring (input is force on mass 1, output is position of mass 2)


    4. Nonminimum phase plant (zero in the right hand plane)





    Let me know if the class is a bit more advanced than this.

    How can one minimize or control communication problems in systems design and analysis?

    To help minimize or control communication problems with clients, I typically deploy various methods of communication. For instance, when describing a system or getting the user to tell me what exactly they need in a system, I talk to them but I also draw something out on a whiteboard real quick, take notes and read them back to the user, ask them the same questions with slightly different angles to make sure they are giving me the same answers, and recite a lot of what they tell me back to them in a form of a summary.





    Then when designing the actual application I typically construct a quick demo that puts the basics in place, ask them to take a look at it and play with it, and see what they think. Typically after seeing something in a bit of solid form it jogs their memory and they will say ';Oh yeah I forgot to mention, we need a button here for xyz';.





    A lot of these tactics are the central piece to various design/analysis methodologies like Rapid Application Design (RAD), Agile Methdologies, and Prototyping. I recommend you look up a few of these methodologies on wikipedia or something where it will tell you a bit more about how some kind of visual demo is usually presented and built upon.





    Using various visual as well as theoretical explanations, you can typically get the user on the same page with you very quickly and create some solid understanding.





    Hope this helps your understanding. :)

    Why is it desirable to have a randomly selected control group in a research design?

    The idea behind random selection is to try to avoid any factors that will bias your results. Even if test subjects know what you are testing for, they will try to produce that result.





    Researchers try to remove any factors that will skew the results one way or another. If random selection methods are not used. The results of the research will probably be invalid.Why is it desirable to have a randomly selected control group in a research design?
    you need to compare the experimental group to the control group to see how the variable the experimental group is exposed to affects them... the control group isn't exposed to the variable or manipulated like the experimental group is...the control group should be random because if you selected people for the group in some other way the control group sample wouldn't necessarily be representative of the population being studied-thus your experimental results might be skewed and have less generalizabilityWhy is it desirable to have a randomly selected control group in a research design?
    because random is best.

    For a control system, How to design a controller using op-amp to eleminate the error for step & ramp inputs?

    From experience, it's easier to use lead and lag dynamic compensators than pure differential and integrating amplifiers. You should be able to find the circuits on the web or in a good book on control.





    If you do choose to go with a PID circuit, be aware that the classical circuits for one of the amplifiers (think its the differentiator, but it was a few years ago!) isn't very stable. The solution is to put a capacitor (I think) across one of the resistors - this solution came from 'The art of electronics', which has most, if not all, of the circuit diagrams and info in it that you'll need in any case!For a control system, How to design a controller using op-amp to eleminate the error for step %26amp; ramp inputs?
    For zero steady state error with a step or ramp input, you can use some type of integration of the error. In a PID controller, this is the ';I'; or Integral gain part. There are many examples on the internet of PID controllers using op-amps. The integral part will involve a capacitor that will continue to charge as long as there is any error, forcing the output stronger and stronger until it matches the desired output. You will want some dampening (the Derivative part of a PID controller) because integral control tends to be oscillatory and can be unstable.

    In Biology (chemistry) what is primary reason including a control group within the design of an experiment?

    im having problems understanding this question can someone please explain it to me?In Biology (chemistry) what is primary reason including a control group within the design of an experiment?
    To prove that your experiment works (or doesn't work).Think about it - if you have one group as the test group and one on a placebo (or whatever your experiment doesn't involve) then you'll get a clear distinction as to what your experiment achieved. Having just a test group leaves the impact of your experiment in the air.





    Hope this helps.In Biology (chemistry) what is primary reason including a control group within the design of an experiment?
    Control group is something that you don't do whatever you're studying on. If lets you know if what you did really did affect them or was there something you didn't know about that affected all animals that wasn't related to the parameter you changed.





    You would use a control group to check the effect of something on an animal for instance. Without the control, it could be argued that any change was from some other cause.

    If we use ';pot'; or potentiometer, i don't know if there's a kind of that that will work with microchip...How to design a circuit that control light bulb brightness automatically?
    There are ';electronic pots';, but they are a kludge and not cheap.





    For DC, one method is to connect your microcontroller digital outputs to a d/a converter to get an analog signal. Then, send this to the base [gate] of a transistor. The emitter-collector [source-drain] for bipolar [MOS] transistors forms the variable resistor. The combination of the d/a converter and the transistor effectively form a digital pot. However, it burns a lot of energy.





    A smarter way is to use pulse width modulation [PWM]. Some microcontrollers have PWM capabilities built in. The PWM output generates a stream of pulses. The pulse width is varied to dim the light. The frequency can be adjusted to make the load operate properly. PWM is really cool because the transistor is either fully on or off; either way it uses little power, so most of the power is used by the load.





    For AC, triacs and thyristors can be used as dimmers. They conduct when turned on, until the voltage crosses zero.How to design a circuit that control light bulb brightness automatically?

    What is the primary reason for including a control group within the design of an experiment?

    A.) To ensure that the results obtained are due to a difference in only one variable.


    b.) To ensure that the experimenter can perform a more complete statistical analysis


    C. To demonstrate in what way the experiment was performed incorrectly.


    D. To accumulate additional facts that can be reported to other scientists


    E. To test the effect of more than one variableWhat is the primary reason for including a control group within the design of an experiment?
    A.) To ensure that the results obtained are due to a difference in only one variable.





    You want a control to compare a result to. If you have multiple variables within your experiment, then you do not know which variable is causing the result you got.


    So a control just allows you to make sure that your experiment is testing one variable only.

    Why root locus method is an important tool in control system design?

    The root locus shows how your poles and zeros move in the S-plane while you vary the proportional value ';K'; (usually).





    the pole positions tell you about stability and settling time, you don't want them on the right side for example.





    When you design your system, you leave K as a tuning parameter, the root locus tells you how changing K affects the system.





    There is no general rule, it depends on what you need for each system, and you tune K to be what you want. For one example, in a system that might face temperature variations where some elements will affect the proportional value, or some other source of error for that matter, you want to place your roots and adjust K so that it's not at the edge of instability for example.

    How to design a control law for the system 1/(s-1) using one of the frequency response techniques?

    I tried to work it out with bode plot design using lag and lead compensators but couldn't get a good result for this !, whenever I'm trying one of the techniques, the system is still unstable.


    any suggestions?How to design a control law for the system 1/(s-1) using one of the frequency response techniques?
    1/ (s-1) is a first order open loop unstable process. To write this out a bit better it is...





    Gm(s) = Kp / ( 蟿p s - 1 )





    where:


    Kp = 1


    蟿p = 1





    The system has an open loop pole in the RHP at s = +1/蟿p. The unit step response is an exponential that goes off to infinity as time increases.





    If you close the loop with a proportioning controller you can make it conditionally closed loop stable depending on the gain of the controller.





    Applying a proportioning controller B(s) = Kc then closing the loop yields:





    1 + Gm(s)B(s) = 1 + [ ( Kp Kc ) / ( 蟿p s - 1 ) ] = 0





    then, there is a closed loop root at s = ( 1 - Kc Kp ) / 蟿p





    The loop is closed loop unstable for small values of controller gain. Once the controller gain equals 1/Kp, the closed loop root is at the origin of a root locus plot. When the controller gain is larger than 1/Kp, the root is in the LHP so the system is closed loop stable.





    Since this explanation applies a closed loop solution applying root locus stability analysis, I'll leave dealing with it in the frequency domain using Bode and Nyquist to you...
