A researcher must only measure one variable at a time, and using a scientific control group gives reliable baseline data to compare their results with. For example, a medical study will use two groups, giving one set of patients the real medicine and the other a placebo, in order to rule out the placebo effect.

You're driving your new sports car at 85 mph over the top of a hill that has a radius of curvature of 525 m.

Bumek [7]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of the sports car, v = 85 mph = 37.99 m/s

The radius of curvature, r = 525 m

Let $W_N$ is the normal weight and $W_A$ is the apparent weight of the person. Its apparent weight is given by :

$W_A=mg-\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

So, $\dfrac{W_A}{W_N}=\dfrac{mg-\dfrac{mv^2}{r}}{mg}$

$\dfrac{W_A}{W_N}=\dfrac{g-\dfrac{v^2}{r}}{g}$

$\dfrac{W_A}{W_N}=\dfrac{9.8-\dfrac{(37.99)^2}{525}}{9.8}$

$\dfrac{W_A}{W_N}=0.719$

$\dfrac{W_A}{W_N}=71.9\%$

Hence, this is the required solution.

When the temperature of the air is 50°C, the velocity of a sound wave traveling through the air is approximately?

noname [10]

The answer is:

C. 361 m/s

The explanation:

To calculate the speed of sound at a given temperature (50°C) we are going to use this formula:

v = 331 + 0.6T

when V is the velocity

and T is the temperature = 50°C

by substitution:

v = 331 + 0.6(50)

v = 361 m/s

So, The correct answer is C.

because of the variation of the motion of the molecules of air with change of temperature so, the velocity (V) of the sound in the air is change with temperature.
