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! :)

A material through which a current does not move easily is a(n) _____.
barxatty [35]
<span>A material through which a current does not move easily is called
an insulator.

Technically, charges CAN move through an insulator, but they lose
a lot of energy doing it, so the current that flows through the insulator
is very very small, usually too small to even measure.

Another way to look at it:  Insulators have high resistance.

A sphere with a charge q is fixed at the bottom left corner of the right triangle shown in the figure. Points P and R are at the
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

the final potential energy of this system is 3U0/10

Explanation:

We are given

charge at left end  and another test charge at point p

Potential energy is given by  = \frac{k*Q1*Q2 }{R}

where k is electrostatics constant = 9 *10^9

Q1 = first charge , Q2=  test charge

R= distance between charges

potential at point p

U0 = k*Q1*Q2 /3 ⇒ kq1q2 = 3U0 ..............1

now the test charge moves to point R

using Pytahgoreou theorem

R(distance) = \sqrt{8^2 + 6^2} = 10

New Potential energy

U1 = kq1*q2 / 10

substituting  kq1q2 = 3U0 from 1

U1 = 3U0/10

So this is the final potential energy of this system.

A mass resting on a horizontal, frictionless surface is attached to one end of a spring; the other end is fixed to a wall. It ta
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

a).K=528.92 \frac{N}{m}

b).m=4.84kg

Explanation:

a).

The work of the spring is find by the formula:

w_s =\frac{1}{2}*k*x^2

So knowing the work can find the constant K'

3.2J =\frac{1}{2}*k*(0.11m)^2

Solve for K'

K=\frac{2*W_s}{x^2}=\frac{2*3.2J}{0.11m^2}

K=528.92 \frac{N}{m}

b).

The force of the spring realice a motion so using the force and knowing the accelerations can find the mass

F=m*a

m=\frac{F}{a}=\frac{K*x}{a}

m=\frac{528.9*0.11m}{12m/s^2}

m=4.84kg

When Kevin pulls his cotton shirt off his body, the electrons get transferred from the (shirt or body) to the (shirt or body) .
Masja [62]
<span>When Kevin pulls his cotton shirt off his body, the electrons get transferred from the shirt (in form of static charges i.e. electrons to the body. So, the shirt becomes positively charged and Kevin’s body becomes negatively charged.

As a result of charge transfer from the shirt to the body, we can hear a crackling sound. or if observed in dark, a sparkle can be seen.</span>
