(Different)apparent magnitude is how bright the star appears from earth and absolute magnitude is how bright the star appears at a standard distance
Answer:
16. Control group: Subject A
17. Independent (manipulated) variable: Type of powder
18. Dependent variable: Itching time
19. Explain whether the data supports the advertisement´s claims about its product. Yes, it does.
Explanation:
- Control group: The control group is used to identify if there are any other factors influencing the results obtained by the treatment in the study (in this case, the new product), from the results that might be a consequence of other factors. The control group must be selected from the same population as the treatment group. Data from an experimental group are compared with the data from a control group. These two groups are identical in all aspects except for the independent variable that the researcher changes in the experimental group to observe how they affect the individuals.
The experimental group is the one that receives the experimental procedure, with changes in the independent variable. There can be several experimental groups. In this case, the experimental group is subject B.
- Independent (manipulated) variable: Refers to all the variables in an experiment that provoke a response in another variable. An independent variable is the one that changes or is controlled and modified in the experiment to analyze how another variable responds to it. It changes to analyze its effects on the dependent variable. Usually, the independent variable is represented by the X letter. In the exposed example, the type of powder is the independent variable.
- Dependent variable: Refers to the variable, which response depends on any change in the independent variable. It represents a quantity of something which value depends on how the independent variable is modified. The change in the dependent variable might be proportional or inversely proportional to the change in the manipulated variable. It is usually identified by the letter Y. In the exposed example, inching time is the dependent variable, that depends on the type of powder used.
- The data <u>does support</u> the advertisement´s claims about its product. The effect of the new product lasts 50% more than the original product. The old powder produced itching for 30 minutes, while the new product produced itching for 45min (15 more minutes, 50% more).
C) The increase in greenhouse gas emissions is like placing an extra log on the fire to produce more heat.
Explanation:
The increase in greenhouse gas emission cannot be likened to placing an extra log on the fire to produce more heat.
In essence, the earth is not receiving more heat than usual from the sun. It is not getting more heated.
- Greenhouse gases prevents heat from being lost from the earth surface as long wave radiation.
- This in turn will warm and heat the earth surface.
- The more the greenhouse gases, the more heat that is trapped within the earth.
- The greenhouse gases is the cover that prevents heat from being lost.
- Global warming is what results.
- An increase in heating might not cause warming of the house if the house is open.
- So also, if the earth receives more energy from the sun, the temperature might not increase if no greenhouse cover is available.
Other analogies shows heating(global warming) and cover(greenhouse gases) except of C.
