The roughness of the surface should be varied by the students tp test the hypothesis in the best possible way.

Explanation:

As the hypothesis stated the relation between roughness of the surface and the distance covered by the marble, students first need to find the independent variable among these two. The independent variable will be the one which will not depend on the result of the other variable. But there will be change in the dependent variable on changing the independent variable.

So here the independent variable is the roughness of the surface as per the hypothesis. And the dependent variable will be distance covered by the marble.

So the students should vary the independent variable and check for desired changes in the dependent variable for confirmation of hypothesis.

Thus, the roughness of the surface should be varied by the students tp test the hypothesis in the best possible way.

Cause and Effect :

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

The thyroid gland produces thyroxine (referred to as T4), which is a relatively inactive prohormone. The highly active hormone is triiodothyronine (referred to as T3).

Key actions of adrenaline include increasing the heart rate, increasing blood pressure, expanding the air passages of the lungs, enlarging the pupil in the eye (see photo), redistributing blood to the muscles and altering the body's metabolism, so as to maximise blood glucose levels (primarily for the brain).

How much kinetic energy does an 80 kg man have while running at 3 m/s?

Soloha48 [4]

Hello!

$\large\boxed{KE = 360 J}$

Use the equation KE = 1/2mv² to solve for the kinetic energy of the man.

We are given the mass and velocity, so plug these values into the equation:

KE = 1/2(80)(3²)

KE = 1/2(720)

KE = 360 J

Humans can see several thousand shades of color but have cone photoreceptors that are sensitive to only three (perhaps four) wav

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

B. Color perception is achieved by activation of various combinations between the tree cone types.

Explanation:

Human eye have only three photo receptor ( three wavelength) but they can see several thousands of shades of color because color perception is gained by combination of these three wave length cone types ( RED, BLUE AND GREEN) into various combinations. Our retina have two types of cell:- cone cells and cylindrical cells. Cone cells are responsible for the identification of color.

Particle 1 has mass 4.6 kg and is on the x-axis at x = 5.7 m. Particle 2 has mass 7.2 kg and is on the y-axis at y = 4.2 m. Part

Iteru [2.4K]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Gravitational Force, for this purpose it is understood that the gravitational force is described as

$F_g = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}$

Where,

G = Gravitational Universal Force

$m_i =$ Mass of each object

To solve this problem it is necessary to divide the gravitational force (x, y) into the required components and then use the tangent to find the angle generated between both components.

Our values are given as,

$m_1 =4.6 kg\\m_2 = 7.2 kg\\m_3 = 2.6 kg\\r_1 = 5.7 m\\r_2 = 4.2 m$

Applying the previous equation at X-Axis,

$F_x = \frac{Gm_1m_3}{R_{1}^2}\\F_x = \frac{6.67*10^{-11}*4.6*2.6}{5.7^2}\\F_x = 2.46*10^{-11}N$

Applying the previous equation at Y-Axis,

$F_y = \frac{Gm_2m_3}{R_2^2}\\F_y = \frac{6.67*10^{-11}*7.2*2.6}{4.2^2}\\F_y = 7.08*10^{-11} N$

Therefore the angle can be calculated as,

$tan\theta = \frac{F_y}{F_x}\\\theta = tan^{-1} \frac{F_y}{F_x}\\\theta = tan^{-1} \frac{7.08*10^{-11}}{2.46*10^{-11}}\\\theta = 71\°$

Then in the measure contrary to the hands of the clock the Force in the particle 3 is in between the positive direction of the X and the negative direction of the Y at 71 ° from the positive x-axis.
