Law Incorporation [45]

Imagine you have been asked to create an experimental design to test the hypothesis that talking on a cell phone impairs driving

skills. Explain why a control condition would be important to include in testing this hypothesis. How should subjects be assigned to conditions? How can the researchers design the experiment so that the only difference between both conditions is the use of a cell phone?

To start the control would be import to see how drivers would act with full focus on the road. The subjects should (in order for the only difference to be the phone) is to use the same vehicle same road same weather condition, just obviously one has the phone the other does not. I hope this helps

Explanation:

To see if using a cell phone actually impairs driving skills, it is necessary to conduct an experiment to test this hypothesis. We can define an experiment as a controlled test to affirm a certain behavior (hypothesis). This is an important procedure to discover the causes and effects that will be important to complete an experiment, so when performing this test it is necessary for a researcher to manipulate a variable in order to find out what its effects are on another variable, so that conclusions about cause and effect.

Every experiment must have an independent variable and a dependent variable. The independent variable is configured as the experimental situation manipulated by the researcher, and the dependent variable is defined as the behavior that the researcher tries to predict. In this question, then, the independent variable is the use of the cell phone, and the dependent variable is the number of collisions.

Therefore, to be valid, an experiment must have an experimental condition and a control condition.

A sample of helium (He) occupies 8.0 liters at 1 atm and 20.0◦C. What pressure is necessary to change the volume to 1.0 liters a
nevsk [136]

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

A cat is running at 24 m/s. It then accelerates at 7 m/s2. How long will it take the cat to reach a speed of 49 m/s?
kozerog [31]

Answer:

t should be 3.57 second

Explanation:

Formula used is v = u+at

In which v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time.

Substitute each of the info given into the formula and calculate.

49 = 24 + (7)t

t = 3.57s

Wat would happen if a feather and a ball were released from the same height at the same time? Gravity Experiments for Kids – Sci
solniwko [45]

Answer:

They would land at the same time

Explanation:

They would land at the same exact time.

As weird, impossible and unbelievable as it appears. When in a vacuum, every weight, body and material when released from the same height would land on the ground at the same time. This also means that like in the question, a feather and a ball would land at the same time. And just for illustrations as well, a feather and a car would land at the same time as well.
