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 proton has been accelerated from rest through a potential difference of -1000 v . part a what is the proton's kinetic energy,
wlad13 [49]
We can apply the law of conservation of energy here. The total energy of the proton must remain constant, so the sum of the variation of electric potential energy and of kinetic energy of the proton must be zero:
\Delta U + \Delta K=0
which means
\Delta K = - \Delta U
The variation of electric potential energy is equal to the product between the charge of the proton (q=1eV) and the potential difference (\Delta V=-1000 V):
\Delta U = q \Delta V=(1 eV)(-1000 V)=-1000 eV
Therefore, the kinetic energy gained by the proton is
\Delta K = -(-1000 eV)=1000 eV
<span>And since the initial kinetic energy of the proton was zero (it started from rest), then this 1000 eV corresponds to the final kinetic energy of the proton.</span>

In a double slit experiment, if the separation between the two slits is 0.050 mm and the distance from the slits to a screen is
meriva

The spacing between the first-order and second-order bright fringes is 3 cm. Hence, this is the required solution.

<h3>What is double slit experiment?</h3>

The double-slit experiment serves as a proof in current physics that both light and matter may exhibit properties of classically defined waves and particles. It also illustrates the inherently probabilistic nature of quantum mechanical events. Thomas Young carried out the first experiment of this kind employing light in 1802, illustrating how light behaves like a wave. It was formerly believed that light was made up of either waves or particles. About a century later, with the advent of modern physics, it was discovered that light may in fact exhibit behaviour like that of both waves and particles. The identical behaviour of electrons was first shown by Davisson and Germer in 1927, and it was later extended to atoms and molecules.

The separation between the slits, d = 0.05mm = 5×10⁻⁵ m

The distance from the slits to a screen, D = 2.5 m

Let x is the spacing between the first-order and second-order bright fringes when coherent light of wavelength 600 nm illuminates the slits,

λ = 600nm = 6× 10⁻⁷ m  

We know that the bright fringe is given by :

y = nλD/d

So, the spacing between the first-order and second-order bright fringes is :

x = 2λD/d - λD/d

x =  λD/d

x = 6 × 10⁻⁷ × 2.5/5 × 10⁻⁵

x = 0.03 m

or

x = 3 cm

So, the spacing between the first-order and second-order bright fringes is 3 cm. Hence, this is the required solution.

If a sound wave travels 680 m in 2 seconds and has a frequency of 400 hz, what is the wavelength of the wave?
Kipish [7]

Answer: 0.85 meters (with and without sigfigs)

Explanation: To find the wavelength, you just have to switch around the equation for wave speed: v (wave speed) = λ (wavelength)*f (frequency) so λ (wavelength) = v (wave speed)/f (frequency). You don't have the wave speed but you can calculate it. Since wave speed is measured in meters/second or m/s, you just have to divide the amount of meters you were given by the amount of seconds. You will get 340 m/s. Next, you have to plug the values into the equation: λ (wavelength) = 340 m/s (wave speed)/400 Hz (frequency). The answer is 0.85 meters (seconds cancel) and has the correct number of significant figures.
