Research Basics: Lesson 1 ENGLISH 1021-41 ESSAY FUNDAMENTAL

INSTRUCTIONS:

• Read and watch each web page/video/resource.
• Type a summary of the top takeaways/things you learned from each section/link whether they have a video or not. Each paragraph should have complete sentences and there needs to be at least 4 sentences. Think of it as at least one sentence about each of the four top things you learned from each resource you review.
• So, again, you will type up paragraph for each section/link. Label your paragraphs by each section you are writing about. So, give a heading or label that says: What is Research? Information Cycle, and Planning: Keywords and Search Strings, then add you paragraphs about what you learned in each area. Put these paragraphs all together in ONE WORD DOCUMENT.
• Label it Research Basics: Lesson 1 and submit it all together to the Research Basics: Lesson 1 assignment folder by April 20 at 11:59 pm.

This week you will be looking at these sections/links:

An outside-air sample is taken on a day when the temperature is 78 F and the relative humidity is 40%.

(a) Use the psychrometric chart to state as many physical properties of the air as you can without doing any calculations. For each one, provide a brief description of the property listed.

(b) A thermometer is mounted on the back porch of your house. What temperature would it read for the air described in this problem?

(c) A sample of outside air is cooled at constant pressure. At what temperature would condensation begin?

(d) You step out of your neighborhood pool and feel quite cold until you dry off. Explain why. Estimate your skin temperature while you were still wet. Explain your answer. What would be different if the relative humidity were 98%?

Describe in detail the Hertzsprung Russell (HR) diagram. Include the information contained on the vertical and horizontal axles, as well as the location of a Red Super Giant, a high mass main sequence star, a Sun like star, and low mass main sequence star, and a white dwarf star.

How do stars evolve on the HR diagram? Chose and describe of an object along one of the following:

• The Hayashi track
• The Henyey track
• The Asymptotic Giant Branch

this is for AST 1002

A public library wants to determine the research needs of children and adults who access the reference section. You will use stratified sampling.

1. Define the population.

2. Define the sample frame.

3. Explain how you would select the sample.

4. Explain how you would gather the data.

Explain is a super simple way--so a 6th grader would understand: What is primary data? How is that different from secondary data? Would you use primary data or secondary data (or both) to gather information about your target population for your own program? (Remember to include a "for real" example)

The following question refers to the enzyme chymotrypsin.

For an experiment, you are asked to modify the sequence of chymotrypsin so that, it instead of cleaving C-terminal to a Phe/Tyr residue, it cleaves after Lys. Please describe the strategy you would take in your design, considering what you have learned. Please explain with clarity and detail.

For the second project, each person will choose a current economic event. The event may be domestic or foreign. All of the events need to be different, so they must be approved by the Instructor. Utilizing research and economic indicators as necessary, explain in detail what the event is, how and when it began, and how that event is impacting your life on a personal level.

Question No. 1: As we know that Global Financial markets have impact on companies’ performance which arise many ethical issues in multinational companies. According to you, what are the main ethical issues/problems you can think of in any multinational company? Explain in detail. (Select a multinational company of your own choice)

We have been discussing inference in class for a while now. One of the aspects of the discussion is estimation using a confidence interval. Going into as much detail as you like, explain in your own words the purpose of confidence interval estimation. As part of the explanation, indicate what is being estimated, possibly using an example of some kind.
