What is an independent variable

Physics
2 answers:
Iteru [2.4K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

An independent variable is a variable that is manipulated to determine the value of a dependent variable. The dependent variable is what is being measured in an experiment or evaluated in a mathematical equation and the independent variables are the inputs to that measurement.

a piece of metal with a mass of 15.3 grams has a temperature of 50.0°C. When the metal is placed in 80.2 grams of water at 21.0°
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

1.21

Explanation:

Heat rise in the body happens due to heat supplied by water to the body.

Heat rise in body = m₁ c₁ ΔT₁

Where m₁ is mass of body and c₁ is its specific heat of body

Heat lost from water to the body = m₂ c₂ ΔT₂

Where m₂ is mass of water and c₂ is its specific heat of water ( c₂ =1 (since water))

Equating both:

        15.3 x c₁ x 4.3 = 80.2 x 1 x 4.3

⇒   c₁ = 80.2 / (15.3 x 4.3) = 1.21

Calculate the recoil speed of a 1.4 kg rifle shooting 0.006 kg bullets with muzzle speed of 800 m/a.3.43 m/s
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

a) 3.43 m/s

Explanation:

Due to the law of conservation of momentum, the total momentum of the bullet - rifle system must be conserved.

The total momentum before the bullet is shot is zero, because they are both at rest, so:

p_i = 0

Instead the total momentum of the system after the shot is:

p_f = mv+MV

where:

m = 0.006 kg is the mass of the bullet

M = 1.4 kg is the mass of the rifle

v = 800 m/s is the velocity of the bullet

V is the recoil velocity of the rifle

The total momentum is conserved, therefore we can write:

p_i = p_f

Which means:

0=mv+MV

Solving for V, we can find the recoil velocity of the rifle:

V=-\frac{mv}{M}=-\frac{(0.006)(800)}{1.4}=-3.43 m/s

where the negative sign indicates that the velocity is opposite to direction of the bullet: so the recoil speed is

a) 3.43 m/s

n the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom (see Section 39.3), in the lowest energy state the electron orbits the proton at a speed o
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

(a) T=1.5*10^{-6}s

(b) I=1.1*10^{-3}A

(c) \mu=9.71*10^{-24}A\cdot m^2

Explanation:

(a) The orbital period is the time that the electron spend to travel the orbit of the atom. Thus, it is given by the length of the circular orbit divided by its velocity:

T=\frac{2\pi r}{v}\\T=\frac{2\pi(5.3*10^{-11}m)}{2.2*10^{6}\frac{m}{s}}\\T=1.5*10^{-6}s

(b) Current means charge over time, So, in this case is charge over period:

I=\frac{q}{t}\\I=\frac{e}{T}\\I=\frac{1.6*10^{-19}C}{1.5*10^{-6}s}\\\\I=1.1*10^{-3}A

(c) Magnetic moment is given by:

\mu=IA

Here A is the area of the orbit.

\mu=I\pi r^2\\\mu=(1.1*10^{-3}A)\pi(5.3*10^{-11}m)^2\\\mu=9.71*10^{-24}A\cdot m^2
