In an experiment, the independent variable is what?

2 answers:

7 0

A variable is any factor, trait, or condition that can exist in differing amounts or types. An experiment usually has three kinds of variables: independent, dependent, and controlled. The independent variable is the one that is changed by the scientist.

Answer:

Explanation:

Independent variable is the variable that can be manipulated or changed in an experiment so as to observe such an alteration on the dependent variable. The dependent variable is the resulting outcome.

A generator produces 60 A of current at 120 V. The voltage is usually stepped up to 4500 V by a transformer and transmitted thro

aalyn [17]

Answer:

The percentage power lost in the transmission line if the voltage not stepped up is 50%.

Explanation:

Given that,

Current = 60 A

Voltage = 120 V

Resistance = 1.0 ohm

We need to calculate the power

Using formula of power

$P=I\times V$

Where,I =current

V = voltage

Put the value into the formula

$P=60\times120$

$P=7200\ W$

We need to calculate the percentage power lost in the transmission line

If the voltage is not stepped up

Then, the power loss

$P'=I^2\times R$

Put the value into the formula

$P'=(60)^2\times1$

$P'=3600\ W$

The percentage power loss P''

$P''=\dfrac{P'}{P}\times100=\dfrac{3600}{7200}\times100$

$P''=50\%$

Hence, The percentage power lost in the transmission line if the voltage not stepped up is 50%.

A cue ball, moving with 9.0 N·s of momentum strikes the nine-ball at rest. The nine-ball moves off with 2.0 N·s in the original

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

P = 7.28 N.s

Explanation:

given,

initial momentum of cue ball in x- direction,P₁ = 9 N.s

momentum of nine ball in x- direction, P₂ = 2 N.s

momentum in perpendicular direction i.e. y - direction,P'₂ = 2 N.s

momentum of the cue after collision = ?

using conservation of momentum

in x- direction

P₁ + p = x + P₂

p is the initial momentum of the nine balls which is equal to zero.

9 + 0 = x + 2

x = 7 N.s

momentum in x-direction.

equating along y-direction

P'₁ + p = y + P'₂

0 + 0 = y + 2

y = -2 N.s

the momentum of the cue ball after collision is equal to resultant of the momentum .

$P = \sqrt{x^2+y^2}$

$P = \sqrt{7^2+(-2)^2}$

P = 7.28 N.s

the momentum of the cue ball after collision is equal to P = 7.28 N.s

Two objects must be in contact for them to exert a force on each other. True False

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The given statement "Two objects must be in contact for them to exert a force on each other" is not true as there are many types of forces that doesn't require being in contact for exerting a force.

One such example is the gravitational force acting between two bodies. Gravitational force is the force of pull with which a body pulls another body without being in contact.

For two bodies of masses 'M' and 'm' separated at a distance of 'R', the gravitational force is given as:

$Force=\frac{GMm}{R^2}\\Where,G\to \textrm{Universal Gravitational constant}$

The gravitational force acts always act between bodies that have mass. The bodies are not in contact yet experience force.

Therefore, the given statement is false.
