Answer:
B) Friction
Explanation:
Friction is a force that acts when an object is sliding along a surface. Microscopically, this force is due to the fact that the two surfaces are not perfectly smooth, but they have "imperfections" that cause a force that opposes the motion of the object.
For an object sliding on a flat surface, the force of friction has magnitude:
where
is the coefficient of kinetic friction
m is the mass of the object
g is the acceleration of gravity
The direction of the force of friction is always opposite to the direction of motion of the object.
In reality, friction also acts if the object is at rest and it is pushed by a force; in this case, we talk about static friction, and its magnitude is
where 
is called coefficient of static friction, and it is generally larger than the coefficient of kinetic friction.
In series circuit, Req = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + ···
In parallel circuit, 
<h3>Q7.</h3>
total resistance in the upper branch = R₂ + R₃ = R₂ + 2
R₂ + 2 = 12
R₂ = 10Ω
<h3>Q8.</h3>
Req = 1.7Ω
Answer:
The dependent variable is academic performance
The independent variable is the presence/absence of tutorial support
The control group are students who did not get the tutorial support.
The experimental group were students that got the tutorial support
Explanation:
In every experiment, there is a dependent and independent variable as well as an experimental and a control group.
The experimental group receive the treatment while the control group do not receive the treatment. The independent variable is manipulated and its impact on the dependent variable is evaluated.
The control group are students who did not receive the tutorial support while the experimental group are students that received the tutorial support.
The dependent variable in this case is academic performance. Its outcome depends on the presence or absence of tutorial support (independent variable).
