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 flexible balloon contains 0.400 molmol of an unknown polyatomic gas. Initially the balloon containing the gas has a volume of
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Mass released = 8.6 g

Given data:

Initial number of moles nitrogen= 0.950 mol

Initial volume = 25.5 L

Final mass of nitrogen released  = ?

Final volume = 17.3 L

Formula:

V₁/n₁  = V₂/n₂

25.5 L / 0.950 mol = 17.3 L/n₂

n₂ =  17.3 L× 0.950 mol/25.5 L

n₂ = 16.435 L.mol /25.5 L

n₂ = 0.644 mol

Initial mass of nitrogen:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.950 mol × 28 g/mol

Mass = 26.6 g

Final mass of nitrogen:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.644 mol × 28 g/mol

Mass = 18.0 g

Mass released = initial mass - final mass

Mass released = 26.6 g - 18.0 g

Mass released = 8.6 g

Jason applies a force of 4.00 newtons to a sled at an angle 62.0 degrees from the ground. What is the component of force effecti
Andreas93 [3]
Answer: 1.88 N

Explanation:

Data:

Force = 4.00N
angle = 62°
horizontal force = ?

Solution:

The trigonometric ratio that relates horizontal - leg to hypotenuse is the cosine.

That ratio is:

                        horizontal - leg
cos(angle) = -------------------------
                          hypotenuse

So, applied to the force, that is:

                             horizontal force
cos (angle) = -----------------------------------
                                 total force

So, clearing the horizontal component you get:
                                         
horizontal force = force * cos (angle)

Substitute the data given:

horizontal force = 4.00N * cos(62°) = 4.00N * 0.4695 = 1.88 N

Answer: 1.88N

Two solid marbles A and B with a mass of 3.00 kg and 6.50 kg respectively have an elastic collision in one dimension. Before col
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

va = 4.79 m/s

vb = 1.29 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved:

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(3.00) (0) + (6.50) (3.50) = (3.00) v₁ + (6.50) v₂

22.75 = 3v₁ + 6.5v₂

For an elastic collision, kinetic energy is conserved.

½ m₁u₁² + ½ m₂u₂² = ½ m₁v₁² + ½ m₂v₂²

m₁u₁² + m₂u₂² = m₁v₁² + m₂v₂²

(3.00) (0)² + (6.50) (3.50)² = (3.00) v₁² + (6.50) v₂²

79.625 = 3v₁² + 6.5v₂²

Two equations, two variables.  Solve with substitution:

22.75 = 3v₁ + 6.5v₂

22.75 − 3v₁ = 6.5v₂

v₂ = (22.75 − 3v₁) / 6.5

79.625 = 3v₁² + 6.5v₂²

79.625 = 3v₁² + 6.5 ((22.75 − 3v₁) / 6.5)²

79.625 = 3v₁² + (22.75 − 3v₁)² / 6.5

517.5625 = 19.5v₁² + (22.75 − 3v₁)²

517.5625 = 19.5v₁² + 517.5625 − 136.5v₁ + 9v₁²

0 = 28.5v₁² − 136.5v₁

0 = v₁ (28.5v₁ − 136.5)

v₁ = 0 or 4.79

We know v₁ isn't 0, so v₁ = 4.79 m/s.

Solving for v₂:

v₂ = (22.75 − 3v₁) / 6.5

v₂ = 1.29 m/s
