How Sound Levels Attenuate with Distance
Lab Report

For our lab we had to how distance affects the loudness of saxophone used. A decibel is a unit used to measure the intensity of a sound. Researchers would be interested in this information. Especially doctors dealing with patients who have a loss of hearing. The way we had done this experiment is by setting 10 meters of tape, each person stands on a meter with their cellphone. With their cellphone that have downloaded an app which acts as a decibel meter. We had then first measured out the ambient noise for a few seconds so we can subtract the ambient from the ambient plus sax part. Then we had measured out the note from the sax being played so we can receive our final answer. The numbers we had gotten have bounced up and down between each meter. Some receiving 90 decibels when they should be receiving around 70. The numbers didn’t seem proper because most cellphones were either too sensitive or not calibrated correctly. Between the two labs we have done (indoors and outdoors) it appears that indoors received a higher decibel rating compared to outdoors. This makes a lot of sense because being indoors it is an enclosed space allowing the noise to bounce off from multiple surfaces, such as the ceiling, the walls, and the floor. But being outdoors it has a higher and more infinite ceiling space and the walls aren’t close enough for the sounds to bounce off

Microbiology Lab Safety Lab #1 1. Introduction In this lab, we focused on skills we will be using throughout this course. This lab specifically focused on hand hygiene. We will be dealing with microorganisms that humans tend to interact with, so it is important to learn safety in lab. Even though they are not harmful, safety is always an important skill to have in a lab setting, especially when we are working independently without guidance. 2. Objectives The objectives of this lab were to work with…

1-Methylcyclohexene Lab Report

the experiment show that 1-methylcyclohexene is the major product of the reaction. This conclusion stems from an understanding that the area of the peaks corresponds to the percentage of the compound present in the mixture. The compound with the largest percentage is usually the most stable product. For E1 reactions, the most stable product is the product that has the greatest stabilization of the carbocation intermediate. Between 1-methycyclohexene and 3-methylcyclohexene, 1-methylcyclohexene stabilizes…

Experiment 1: Membrane Transport of Neutral Red Dye in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Abstract The purpose of the experiment was to determine which type of diffusion is used for membrane transportation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We took different concentrations of red dye to measure the absorbance rate the yeast cells took in. To compare our results, we had a controlled group of yeast growth medium with the concentrations of dye and we made a group of the same dye concentrations but with sodium azide…
