#Read the introductory material for [[20.109(F15):Battery testing (Day4)| the battery testing lab]], and then, based on the mass of the active electrode material you've made, determine the number of mA to apply in order to fully discharge the battery in 10 hours. Use the loading factor of 51 mA/g, a value that is in accordance with previously tested gold nanowire electrodes, and assume 85% of the mass you measured for the nanowires is active material in the anode. | #Read the introductory material for [[20.109(F15):Battery testing (Day4)| the battery testing lab]], and then, based on the mass of the active electrode material you've made, determine the number of mA to apply in order to fully discharge the battery in 10 hours.

# | #Begin to refine your research proposal by making a wiki page to collect your ideas and resources ('''you can do this on one page with your partner''' or split the effort and each turn in an individual page). Keep in mind that your presentation to the class will ultimately need: | ||
#*a brief project overview | |||
#*sufficient background information for everyone to understand your proposal | |||
#*a statement of the research problem and goals | |||
#*project details and methods | |||
#*predicted outcomes if everything goes according to plan and if nothing does | |||
#*needed resources to complete the work | |||
You can organize your wiki page along these lines or however you feel is most helpful -- check out the [[Yeast rebuild |“yeast rebuild”]] or the [[T7.2 | “T7.2”]] wiki pages on OpenWetWare for examples of research ideas in process. '''For this assignment, please submit a printed copy of your research page, making sure it defines your general topic (background and significance), your specific idea (research gap and general approach), and two or more references you've collected and summarized.''' Keep in mind that your idea may still change - if you come up with something that you like better later on, that's fine. | |||
Please note: you may also utilize any 'cloud' software (Evernote, Google docs), but it must be something that is accessible to both you and your partner. | |||
