An example of a hypothesis for an experiment might be: “A basketball will bounce higher if there is more air it”
Step one would be to make an observation... “hey, my b-ball doesn’t have much air in it, and it isn’t bouncing ver high”
Step two is to form your hypothesis: “A basketball will bounce higher if there is more air it”
Step three is to test your hypothesis: maybe you want to drop the ball from a certain height, deflate it by some amount and then drop it from that same height again, and record how high the ball bounced each time.
Here the independent variable is how much air is in the basketball (what you want to change) and the dependent variable is how high the b-ball will bounce (what will change as a result of the independent variable)
Step four is to record all of your results and step five is to analyze that data. Does your data support your hypothesis? Why or why not?
You should only test one variable at a time because it is easier to tell why the results are how they are; you only have one cause.
Hope this helps!

An object is lifted from the surface of a spherical planet to an altitude equal to the radius of the planet.
As a result, the object's <em>mass remains the same</em>, and its <em>weight decreases</em> to 1/4 of whatever it is when the object is on the planet's surface.
Answer:
the correct one is the first, the refractive index of the two materials must be the same
Explanation:
When a beam of light passes through two materials, it must comply with the law of refraction
n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂
where n₁ and n₂ are the refractive indices of each medium.
In this case, it indicates that the light does not change direction, so the input and output angle of the interface must be the same,
θ₁ = θ₂ = θ
substituting
n₁ = n₂
therefore the refractive index of the two materials must be the same
