2 answers:

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.

Two drums of the same size and same height are taken.

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

i) The pressure acting on the base of B will be half the pressure acting on the base of A

ii) The pressure acting on the base of B will be the same as the pressure acting on the base of A

iii) The pressure on the base of drum A will be slightly less than the pressure on the base of drum B

Explanation:

The pressure acting on the base of the drum, P = h·ρ·g

Where;

h = The level of the liquid in the drum

$h_{max}$ = The height of the drums

ρ = The density of the liquid in the drum

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

i) If A is completely filled, we have $h_A$ = $h_{max}$

Therefore, $P_A$ = $h_{max}$ × $\rho_{liquid}$ ×g

If B is half filled, we have, $h_B$ = (1/2)· $h_{max}$

$P_B$ = (1/2) × $h_{max}$ × $\rho_{liquid}$ ×g

Therefore, $P_B$ = (1/2) × $P_A$

The pressure acting on the base of B will be half the pressure acting on the base of A

ii) If both A and B are each filled with water (the same liquid), then the pressure on their bases will be $P_A$ = $h_{max}$ × $\rho_{water}$ ×g = $P_B$ , the same, given that the acceleration due to gravity, g, is constant and the same in Nepal and India

iii) If A is filled with water, and B is filled with salty water, we have that, the density of salty water is slightly higher than water, therefore, we get;

$P_A$ = $h_{max}$ × $\rho_{water}$ ×g < $P_B$ =

The pressure on the base of drum A will be less than the pressure on the base of drum B.

How much work is done on a small car if a 3150 N force is exerted to move it 75.5 m to the side of the road

irinina [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Work = Force times displacement. Therefore,

W = 3150(75.5) so

W = 238000 N*m
