The independent variable is changed by the experimentor, so it does not have to be changed.
Ann [662]3 years ago

Answer:

To match the cause to its effect

Explanation:

The experimenter alters the independent variable with the hopes of collecting data about how the dependent variable changes in response.Other variables have to be controlled so that any changes of the dependent variable are attributed to the known independent variable. If they are not controlled the experimenter has no way of knowing which variable caused the change. The scientific method would be crippled by that.

Besides adding adaptive optics to a telescope, what else can be done to reduce the effects of seeing?
anyanavicka [17]
<span>There is an low cost and quickest alternative available for adaptive optics. Name of this technique is wavefront coding. The numerical analysis pretends to show the robustness of the technique under changes in pupil diameter and wavefront shape including intersubject and intrasubject variability, using always the same restoration filter or image decoder .Using this technique it is possible to obtain high resolution images under different ocular aberrations and pupil diameters with the same decoder, opening the possibility of real time high resolution images.</span>

A locomotive is pulling 15 freight cars, each of which is loaded with the same amount of weight. The mass of each freight car (w
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

298,220 N

Explanation:

Let the force on car three is T_23-T_34

Since net force= ma

from newton's second law we have

T_23-T_34 = ma

therefore,

T_23-T_34 = 37000×0.62

T_23= 22940+T_34

now, we need to calculate

T_34

Notice that T_34 is accelerating all 12 cars behind 3rd car by at a rate of 0.62 m/s^2

F= ma

So, F= 12×37000×0.62= 22940×12= 275280 N

T_23 =22940+T_34= 22940+ 275280= 298,220 N

therefore, the tension in the coupling between the second and third cars

= 298,220 N

A 40kg skier starts at the top of a 12 meter high slope at the bottom she is traveling g 10m/a how much energy does she lose to
nikdorinn [45]
Energy at top = U = mgh = 40 * 9.8 * 12 = 4704 J

Energy at bottom = 1/2 mv² = 1/2 * 40 * 10² = 4000 / 2 = 2000 J

Energy Lost = Final - Initial = 4704 - 2000 = 2704 J

In short, Your Answer would be 2704 Joules

Hope this helps!

A ball has a mass of 10 Kg. Calculate the force of weight on the ball
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

98 N

Explanation:

Weight is mass times acceleration due to gravity.  Assuming the ball is near the surface of the earth, g = 9.8 m/s².

W = mg

W = (10 kg) (9.8 m/s²)

W = 98 N

A rocket car is developed to break the land speed record along a salt flat in Utah. However, the safety of the driver must be co
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

a = 45 m/s/s

Explanation:

As we know that total mass of the rocket is

M = 6000 kg

total mass of the fuel is given as

m = 2000 kg

all the fuel is burnt in 15 s

so rate of the fuel burning is given as

\frac{dm}{dt} = \frac{2000}{15}

\frac{dm}{dt} = 133.33 kg/s

now the thrust force on the rocket is given as

F_{th} = v\frac{dm}{dt}

(6000 - 133.33 t) a = (900 + v)(133.33)

so we have

\frac{dv}{900 + v} = (133.33)\frac{dt}{6000 - 133.33 t}

so we have

ln(\frac{900 + v}{900}) = - ln(\frac{6000 - 133.3 t}{6000})

1 + \frac{v}{900} = \frac{6000}{6000 - 133.3 t}

now acceleration is rate of change in velocity

\frac{1}{900}\frac{dv}{dt} = \frac{133.3\times 6000}{(6000 - 133.3t)^2}

so acceleration at t = 15 s

a = 45 m/s^2
