Dr. Trout has noticed that the salmon in his fish hatchery seem to enjoy listening to the radio when he has it on in the lab. The fish
in the tank closest to the radio seem to grow larger. Dr. Trout decides that the more music he plays, the faster the fish must grow,
To test his idea, he sets up 5 large ponds with 100 salmon in each pond. He places a loudspeaker at the middle of each pond and
plays various amounts of music in each pond. He is careful to play the same band, feed the
fish the same diet, and keep the water
conditions in all tanks exactly the same. After 10 weeks, he ends the trial and takes the average
weight of the fish in each pond,
