Why is it important to use placebos and a double-blind approach in some studies

1 answer:

6 0

Another name for these two words is "constant" and you want to have a "constant", because you want something to compare your experimental group to, to see whether data had changed or not. So you have placebos or a double- blind to compare your experimental group to it and also so you know you don't have a bias or anything in the study.

In the mobile m1=0.42 kg and m2=0.47 kg. What must the unknown distance to the nearest tenth of a cm be if the masses are to be

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

Explanation:

From he question we are told that

The first mass is $m_1 = 0.42kg$

The second mass is $m_2 = 0.47kg$

From the question we can see that at equilibrium the moment about the point where the string holding the bar (where $m_1 \ and \ m_2$ are hanged ) is attached is zero

Therefore we can say that

$m_1 * 15cm = m_2 * xcm$

Making x the subject of the formula

$x = \frac{m_1 * 15}{m_2}$

$= \frac{0.42 * 15}{0.47}$

$x = 13.4 cm$

Looking at the diagram we can see that the tension T on the string holding the bar where $m_1 \ and \ m_2$ are hanged is as a result of the masses ( $m_1 + m_2$ )

Also at equilibrium the moment about the point where the string holding the bar (where ( $m_1 +m_2$ ) and $m_3$ are hanged ) is attached is zero

So basically

$(m_1 + m_2 ) * 20 = m_3 * 30$

$(0.42 + 0.47) * 20 = 30 * m_3$

Making $m_3$ subject

$m_3 = \frac{(0.42 + 0.47) * 20 }{30 }$

$m_3 = 0.59 kg$

Decay of ______ waste present in waste water leads to unpleasant smell

victus00 [196]

Decay of Schizomycetes waste present in waste water leads to unpleasant smell.

These microorganisms, known as iron and sulfur bacteria, cause hydrogen sulfide to be found in water supplies. They include crenothrix and beggiatoa. Most often found in groundwater supplies, they produce an offensive odor of decaying matter. (I'm not sure)
