Answer:
The variable manipulated or controlled by the experimenter is called the independent variable.
Example:
If the flow velocity at the bottom of a tank is measured by varying the height of water in the tank, we are measuring velocity as a function of water height.
Therefore,
water height = independent variable (controlled)
velocity = dependent variable (measured in response to water height).
Mathematically,
v = f(h)
where v = response variable (dependent)
h = controlled variable (independent).
Answer:

Explanation:
Given that,
The distance between two spheres, r = 25 cm = 0.25 m
The capacitance, C = 26 pF = 26×10⁻¹² F
Charge, Q = 12 nC = 12 × 10⁻⁹ C
We need to find the work done in moving the charge. We know that, work done is given by :

Put all the values,

So, the work done is
.
Apply the combined gas law
PV/T = const.
P = pressure, V = volume, T = temperature, PV/T must stay constant.
Initial PVT values:
P = 1atm, V = 8.0L, T = 20.0°C = 293.15K
Final PVT values:
P = ?, V = 1.0L, T = 10.0°C = 283.15K
Set the PV/T expression for the initial and final PVT values equal to each other and solve for the final P:
1(8.0)/293.15 = P(1.0)/283.15
P = 7.7atm
Answer:
C
