A company is creating a new mosquito repellent, and needs to figure out how much is needed to stop mosquito bites. They find vol

unteers from the nearby college. Each person is given either 1mL, 2mL, or 3mL of the repellent to rub on their arm. Some volunteers are given no repellent. Each person is then put in a room with mosquitoes for 10 minutes. Numbers of bites are measured for each volunteer.
In Experiment 1 above, what is the independent variable?

The independent variable is the different amount of repellent each person is given. This is because it does not depend on any variable. The dependent variable is what they are measuring, which would be the number of bites on each volunteer.
I hope this helps! :)

Answer:

8) 709.8875 J

9) The object is at 7.24375 m from the ground

10) Kinetic energy increases as the object falls.

Explanation:

We use the expression for the displacement h(t) as a function of time of an object experiencing free fall:

h(t) = hi - (g/2) t^2

hi being the initial position of the object (10m) above ground, g the acceleration of gravity (9.8 m/s^2), and t the time (in our case 0.75 seconds):

h(0.75) = 10 - 4/9 (0.75)^2 = 7.24375 m

This is the position of the 10 kg object after 0.75 seconds (answer for part 9)

Knowing this position we can calculate the potential energy of the object when it is at this height, using the formula:

U = m g h = 10kg * 9.8 (m/s^2) * 7.24375 m = 709.8875 J (answer for part 8)

Part 10)

the kinetic energy of the object increases as it gets closer to ground, since its velocity is increasing in magnitude because is being accelerated in its motion downwards.

The volume control on a stereo is designed so that three clicks of the dial increase the output by 10 dB. How many clicks are re
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

300 clicks...

Explanation:

Output on 3 clicks = 10 dB

Increasing 10 by a factor of 100 equals 1000 dB so,

Its simple math, clicks will also increase in the same ratio and it shall take 300 clicks to increase the volume by a factor of 100.

What other objects in our solar systems might influence etiams movement as it travels through space? Why?
GalinKa [24]
Our solar system consists of our star, the Sun, and everything bound to it by gravity – the planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune; dwarf planets such as Pluto; dozens of moons; and millions of asteroids, comets, and meteoroids hope that helps
