This question is incomplete because part of the content is missing; here is the complete question:

Ingrid wrote the hypothesis below.  If the temperature of a liquid increases, the density of the liquid decreases because the particles move farther apart.

What are the variables in her hypothesis?

A. The independent variable is the temperature, and the dependent variable is the density.

B. The independent variable is the density, and the dependent variable is the temperature.

C. The independent variable is the temperature, and the dependent variable is the distance between particles.

D. The independent variable is the distance between particles, and the dependent variable is the temperature.

The answer to this question is A. The independent variable is the temperature, and the dependent variable is the density.

Explanation:

To begin, the variables in an experiment are the factors being studied or analyzed, which are expressed in the hypothesis. According to this, the two variables in the experiment are the temperature and the density.

Additionally, in experiments, it is common one of the variables is independent, which is the factor manipulated by the researcher, and the other is dependent as this is expected to be changed by the first variable. If this is applied to the experiment described, the temperature is independent because this will be manipulated by Ingrid to prove density changes. Also, the density is expected to be affected by the first variable, and therefore density is the dependent variable.

The increase in volume of matter that occurs when matter is heated. a) Contraction b) Expansion c) kinetic energy d) Volume
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

b) Expansion

Explanation:

In science, matter can be defined as anything that has mass and occupies space. Any physical object that is found on earth is typically composed of matter. Matter are known to be made up of atoms and as a result has the property of existing in states.

Generally, matter exists in three (3) distinct or classical phases and these are; solid, liquid and gas.

A physical change can be defined as a type of change that involves an increase or decrease in the volume of a physical object (object). Also, this change can be reversed to the original state under certain conditions.

The increase in volume of matter that occurs when matter is heated causes an expansion.

This ultimately implies that, when a physical object (matter) is heated for a specific period of time, it result in an increase in the volume of the object; this phenomenon is generally referred to as expansion.

On the other hand, a decrease in volume of a physical object (matter) as a result of heat is known as contraction.

Consider the classic problem with holiday lights, one little bulb goes out and the whole string goes out. First consider a strin
Flura [38]

Answer:

<em>a. 0.33 Amp</em>

<em>b. 2.4 Volt</em>

<em>c. 0</em>

<em>d. 2.45 Amp</em>

<em>e. Infinite</em>

<em>f. Series is safer</em>

Explanation:

<u>Series Connection of Resistors</u>

When two or more resistors are connected in series, the current through each one of them is the same, and the voltage divides depending on the particular value of each resistance. If all the resistances are equal, then the voltage is equally divided.

a. The string of 50 bulbs is connected to a 120 VAC outlet and consumes 40 W. The power of a circuit is given by

P=V.I

Solving for I

\displaystyle I=\frac{P}{V}=\frac{40}{120}=0.33\ Amp

Since all the bulbs are connected in series the current is the same for all of them.

b. The voltage is equally divided, so each bulb has  120/50= 2.4 V

c. If one of the bulbs burns out and its resistance becomes infinite, then the series circuit is open and no current flows through it, neither through the rest of the bulbs. The typical case of the whole string going out.

d. If one of the bulbs short circuits, the resistance of that bulb is zero and the voltage is distributed by the 49 remaining bulbs. Thus the new current is

\displaystyle I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{120}{49}=2.45\ A

e. If the bulbs were connected in parallel, all of them would have the same voltage, and the total current will be equally divided among them. In that case, a short circuit in one of the bulbs will cause a parallel short, theoretically producing an infinite current and making the short circuit protection blow up.

f. The condition described above makes the strings be made of series-connected bulbs which is safer than the parallel circuit. If a single bulb shorts, the entire string goes out in a series connection, but the breaker would trigger disconnection of the house circuit if it's a parallel connection. That is why we must deal with unusable strings instead of burning cables.

Sully uses a battery and a coil of wire to create an electromagnet. Using the same materials, if he wants to increase the streng
garik1379 [7]
An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced using the current. The simplest form of an electromagnet is a wire wrapped around in a coil.
The strength of magnetic field of such magnet is given with this equation:
B=\frac{NI\mu}{L}
Where N is the number of loops in the coil, I is the strength of the current flowing through the coil, L is the length of the coil, and \mu is <span>permeability of the electromagnet core material.
From this equation, we can see that increasing both the current and number of loops will increase the strength of the magnet.
Both BLANKS should be Increase. When you use the additional battery you will have more voltage and more voltage means more electricity.</span>

How much heat is needed to change 1.25 kg of steak at 100°C to water at 100°C?
cricket20 [7]

The heat required to change 1.25 kg of steak is 2825 kJ /kg.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given, mass m = 1.25 kg,     Temperature t = 100 degree celsius

To calculate the heat required,

                                 Q = m \times L

where m represents the mass in kg,

          L represents the heat of vaporization.

When a material in the liquid state is given energy, it changes its phase from liquid to vapor and the energy absorbed in this process is called heat of the vaporization. The heat of vaporization of the water is about 2260 kJ/kg.

                                  Q = 1.25 \times 2260

                                  Q = 2825 kJ /kg.
