Answer:

Independent variable

Explanation:

In an we experiment when there are two variables we generally find the relation among them by graphing the variables.

The variable which acts irrespective of the other variable is known as the independent variable it is considered as the input. It is plotted on the x axis.

The variable which acts with respect to the other variable is known as the dependent variable it is considered as the output. It is plotted on the y axis.

Which tuning forks will give rise to a beat frequency of 20 Hz when sounded together with a 240 Hz tuning fork?

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Use the concept of beat frequency to find the applicable final freqeuncy for 20Hz beat frequency.

Beat can be defined as 'the interference pattern between two sounds of slightly different frequencies0

The expression for beat frequency is given as

$f_{beat} = |f_1-f_2|$

Where,

$f_2 =$ Final frequency

$f_1 =$ Initial frequency

The beat frequency for us is 25Hz and the initial frequency is 240Hz, then

$20= |f_2-240|$

Being an absolute value, two values are possible, both in addition and subtraction:

$f_2 = 240 \pm 20$

The two possible values are

$f_2 = 220Hz$

$f_2 = 260Hz$

Sandra takes a class field trip to a geology museum. She sees an interesting sample of igneous rock. She wonders if the material

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

It is possible for sedimentary rocks to be converted to igneous rocks. Under conditions of high temperature and pressure, sedimentary rocks can be broken down into igneous rock by melting this rock type.

When the rock is broken down, it forms melt which when cooled and solidifies will form igneous rocks.

Sedimentary rocks are formed from the breaking down of pre-existing rocks through the action of weathering, erosion and sediment transportation. Within a basin, the sediments are compacted and lithified.

When this is subjected to intense pressure and temperature, the rock hardens and might further break down to melt.

Draw a schematic diagram of a circuit consisting of a battery of five 2 V cells, a 5 ohm resistor, a 10 ohm resistor, a 15 ohm r

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Current = 0.33 A

Explanation:

For diagram refer the attachment.

It is given that five cells of 2V are connected in series, so total voltage of the battery:

$\dashrightarrow \: \: \sf V = 2 \times 5 = 10 V$

Three resistor of 5 $\Omega$ , 10 $\Omega$ , 15 $\Omega$ are connected in Series, so the net resistance:

$\dashrightarrow \: \: \sf R_{n} = R_{1} + R_{2} + R_{3}$

$\dashrightarrow \: \: \sf R = 5 + 10 + 15$

${ \pink{\dashrightarrow \sf \: \: { \underbrace{R = 30 \: \Omega}}}}$

According to ohm's law:

$\dashrightarrow \sf\: \: V = IR$

$\dashrightarrow \sf \: \: I = \dfrac{V}{R}$

On substituting resultant voltage (V) as 10 V and resultant resistant, as 30 ${\pmb{\sf{\Omega}}}$ we get:

$\dashrightarrow \sf \: \: I = \dfrac{10V}{30\Omega}$

${ \pink{\dashrightarrow \sf \: \: { \underbrace{I = 0.33 A}}}}$

$\therefore$ The electric current passing through the above circuit when the key is closed will be 0.33 A

Imagine that you are going to visit your friend. Before you get there, you decide to stop at the variety store. If you walk 200

SashulF [63]

Answer:

400m

Explanation:

Brainliest? :))

Let your initial displacement from your home to the store be

1 and your displacement from the store to your friend’s house

be Dd

Given: Dd

1 = 200 m [N]; Dd

2 = 600 m [S]

Required: Dd

Analysis: Dd

T 5 Dd

1 1 Dd

Solution: Figure 6 shows the given vectors, with the tip of Dd

joined to the tail of Dd

2. The resultant vector Dd

T is drawn in red,

from the tail of Dd

1 to the tip of Dd

2. The direction of Dd

T is [S].

T measures 4 cm in length in Figure 6, so using the scale of

1 cm : 100 m, the actual magnitude of Dd

T is 400 m.

Statement: Relative to your starting point at your home, your

total displacement is 400 m [S].

If the rectangular barge is 3.0 m by 20.0 m and sits 0.70 m deep in the harbor, how deep will it sit in the river?

leva [86]

The harbour contains salt water while the river contains fresh water. So assuming that the densities of fresh water and salt water are:

density (salt water) = 1029 kg / m^3

density (fresh water) = 1000 kg / m^3

The amount of water (in mass) displaced by the barge should be equal in two waters.

mass displaced (salt water) = mass displaced (fresh water)

Since mass is also the product of density and volume, therefore:

[density * volume]_salt water = [density * volume]_fresh water ---> 1

First we calculate the amount of volume displaced in the harbour (salt water):

V = 3.0 m * 20.0 m * 0.70 m

V = 42 m^3 of salt water

Plugging in the values into equation 1:

1029 kg / m^3 * 42 m^3 = 1000 kg/m^3 * Volume fresh water

Volume fresh water displaced = 43.218 m^3

Therefore the depth of the barge in the river is:

43.218 m^3 = 3.0 m * 20.0 m * h

h = 0.72 m (ANSWER)
