Which method is best at transferring heat from the fluid to the eggshell? Compare the temperature gradients you observed in the two methods. Which of the methods produces the most pronounced gradient? Which of the methods is likely to produce the most consistent hard cooked egg?2.

A story is described below.  Read this story, then answer the following questions and fulfill all requirements.  Within this assignment, you will identify ethical issues and comment on those issues using your critical thinking skills.

Story:

In 1985, a former Russian KGB agent gave an interview describing how the Russian government goes about brainwashing its own population.  The four phases are demoralization, destabilization, crises, and normalization.

  • In the first phase, the educational system is weakened and the population is fed useless information until it no longer is able to assess the facts.
  • Destabilization involves undermining the economy, foreign relations, and the national defense system.
  • The crises phase is brought about by a sudden, unexpected, imminent threat.
  • In response to the crises, the government puts in place emergency measures after which follows the normalization process, which affirms and institutionalizes the new status quo.

2.  For this final requirement, be careful not to jump to conclusions.  This assignment challenges students to go beyond using only System-1 thinking.  Use your critical thinking skills and be sure to consider all the possibilities.  Be sure to address the following in your answer:

  • analyze the alternatives
