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 ball is thrown straight up at 20 m. What is the balls velocity as it hits the ground?
deff fn [24]

Answer:

<em>The velocity of the ball as it hit the ground = 19.799 m/s</em>

Explanation:

Velocity: Velocity of a body can be defined as the rate of change of displacement of the body. The S.I unit of velocity is m/s. velocity is expressed in one of newtons equation of motion, and is given below.

v² = u² + 2gs.......................... Equation 1

Where v = the final velocity of the ball, g = acceleration due to gravity, s = the height of the ball

<em>Given: s = 20 m, u = 0 m/s</em>

<em>Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 1,</em>

<em>v² = 0 + 2×9.8×20</em>

<em>v² = 392</em>

<em>v = √392</em>

<em>v = 19.799 m/s.</em>

<em>Therefore the velocity of the ball as it hit the ground = 19.799 m/s</em>

Gordon throws a baseball into the air. It rises, stops when it reaches its greatest height, and then falls back down to the grou
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

A) When the baseball is rising

Explanation:

When an object like the baseball is thrown into the air, the kinetic energy  is gradually converted into potential energy. When the baseball rises to its maximum height, the kinetic energy becomes zero and the kinetic energy is fully converted into potential energy.
