Answer:
In a controlled experiment, an independent variable (the cause) is systematically manipulated and the dependent variable (the effect) is measured; any extraneous variables are controlled. The researcher can operationalize (i.e. define) the variables being studied so they can be objectivity measured.
Answer: 0.01 m
Explanation: The formulae for capillarity rise or fall is given below as
h = (2T×cosθ)/rpg
Where θ = angle mercury made with glass = 50°
T = surface tension = 0.51 N/m
g = acceleration due gravity = 9.8 m/s²
r = radius of tube = 0.5mm = 0.0005m
p = density of mercury.
h = height of rise or fall
From the question, specific gravity of density = 13.3
Where specific gravity = density of mercury/ density of water, where density of water = 1000 kg/m³
Hence density of mercury = 13.3×1000 = 13,300 kg/m³.
By substituting parameters, we have that
h = 2×0.51×cos 50/0.0005×9.8×13,300
h = 0.6556/65.17
h = 0.01 m
<em>weight = (mass) x (gravity)</em>
Weight = (5.00 kg) x (9.81 m/s²)
weight = (5.00 x 9.81) (kg-m/s²)
<em>Weight = 49.05 Newton</em>
