For my science fair this year, I chose the problem “How do different types of music effect your heart rate?” Here are my results so far:
(Keep in mind normal rate for those 10yrs old and up is 60-100 beats per minute)
Showtunes- 1 min of Wicked- “Defying Gravity”-84 beats per min
Control- 1 min of silence- 90 beats per min
Classical- 1 min of Beethoven-“Fur Elise”-96 beats per min
Country-1 min of Taylor Swift-“Teardrops on my Guitar”-102 beats per min
Pop-1 min of All Time Low- “Hello, Brooklyn”-110 beats per min
Hardcore-1 min of The Devil Wears Prada-Reptar, “King of the Ozone”- 122 beats per min
A work in progress, I’ll keep you posted on further results. As you can see Wicked nearly killed me.
