Bob wanted to investigate the effects of plant fertilizer. He bought three identical plants and gave plant 1 fertilizer every mo

rning; plant 2 fertilizer once a week, and he didn't use any fertilizer on plant 3. Bob watered each plant every morning and set all three plants on the windowsill so they would all have the same amount of sunlight. He measured the height of each plant once a week . He plotted plant height (y-axis)vs time (x-axis) for each plant. What is the independent variable * 1 point

Answer:

TIME he applied the fertilizer to each plant

Explanation:

Independent variable in an experiment is the variable that is subject to change or manipulation by the experimenter. In this experiment, Bob wanted to investigate the effects of plant fertilizer. Bob sets up the experiment by applying the fertilizer to each plant at DIFFERENT TIMES i.e. plant 1-every morning, plant 2-once a week, plant 3-never.

Based on this, it is obvious that the independent or manipulated variable is the TIME at which he applied the fertilizer. On the other hand, the dependent or measured variable is the height of the plants.

What is the frequency of a wave
MAVERICK [17]
The frequency of a wave is the number of waves that passes through a point in a certain time. The less waves that pass in a period of time the lower the frequency of the wave. The more waves that pass in a period of time the higher the frequency of the wave. When measuring wave length the time period used is usually one second.

Neon signs use electricity to ____ electrons
Romashka [77]
Neon light recharge them self with more light and electricity, they rapidly give out the energy they absorbed to get themselves back to normal again. They do this by giving out tiny packets of light energy called photons. I;m not sure if this helps but you gave no info really on what you were asking like if there were choices that would have been helpful to see :p

The electric force on object A by object B is F. If the charge of object B were only half as large as it is, but everything else
nalin [4]

Answer:

The new electric force on object B by object A is one half of the magnitude of the original force F, in the opposite direction. Equals -F/2

Explanation:

We are asked to demonstrate what happens when you reduce the magnitude of the charge of an object in an interactive system.

Assumptions.

The new force is F'

The system is isolated from other external interferences

The distance between objects A and B remains unchanged

Analysis.

The force F on object A by object B is given by the formula

F=(k*q,a*q,b)/d^2

where k is the Coulomb's Law constant, and equals 9x10^9 N/m s

q,a and q,b equals the original charges of objects A and B

d is the distance between objects A and B

Now, we are to calculate the new force, let's call it F', and following the same reasoning.

F'=(k*q',a*q',b)/d'^2

Given that only q', b is different to the original, we have that

F'=(k*q,a*q',b)/d^2

Now, q',b=q,b/2 and replacing

F'=(k*q,a*q,b)/(2*d^2)

Now we find the relation between F' and F

F'/F=[(k*q,a*q,b)/(2*d^2)]/[(k*q,a*q,b)/d^2]

Reducing similar terms

F'/F=1/2

However, we should also consider that the forces F and F' are in oposite directions, so simplifying the vectorial notation,

F'/F=-1/2, meaning that F'=-F/2
