Suppose you are investigating how the day ends hamsters affect how much they run on the hamster wheel. In order to control the e

xperiment which of these should you do?
A. Change only the diet of each hampster.

B. Give all the hamsters the exact same diet.

C. Only allow some hampsters to run on the wheel.

D. Compare the behavior of hamsters and gerbils

Answer:

B

Explanation:

If you want to control the experiment, you want to make sure that no outside factor could potentially influence your results.

Hence, changing the diet of a hamster would significantly alter any results you may collect.

For example, if you allow hamster A to eat a nutritious diet, while not giving a proper diet to hamster B. Hamster A will perform better, and run further and for longer, because he has more energy.

The answer is B, because you want to make sure no hamster is at an advantage.

The answer is C because you need non running hamsters to compare running hamsters with.

On a sunny summer day, why does a white car with a light-colored interior stay cooler than a black car with a dark-colored inter

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer: Solar radiation reflects off the lighter colours, away from the car, thus keeping the car cool

Explanation: This is because lighter colors reflect a good amount of radiation while darker colors absorb it. Just like, Antarctica hasn't completely melted because it reflects a lot of the heat that is acting upon it. Or, you notice that you get hotter when you wear a black shirt opposed to a white one.

give an example of situation in which an automobile driver can have a centripetal acceleration but no tangential speed

Mars2501 [29]

There is no need for tangential acceleration when moving in a circle at a constant speed.

<h3>What is centripetal acceleration?</h3>

centripetal acceleration refers to the speed at which a body moves through a circle. Due to the fact that velocity is a vector quantity (i.e., it has both a magnitude, the speed, and a direction), when a body travels in a circle, its direction is constantly changing, which causes a change in velocity, which results in an acceleration.

<h3>Which is an example of centripetal acceleration?</h3>

Centripetal acceleration occurs when you spin a ball on a string above your head. A car experiences centripetal acceleration when it is being driven in a circle. Additionally, a satellite in orbit around the Earth experiences centripetal acceleration.

Two coherent sources of radio waves, A and B, are 5.00 meters apart. Each source emits waves with wavelength 6.00 meters. Consid

Korolek [52]

Answer:

a

$z= 2.5 \ m$

b

$z = (1 \ m , 4 \ m )$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Their distance apart is $d = 5.00 \ m$

The wavelength of each source wave $\lambda = 6.0 \ m$

Let the distance from source A where the construct interference occurred be z

Generally the path difference for constructive interference is

$z - (d-z) = m \lambda$

Now given that we are considering just the straight line (i.e points along the line connecting the two sources ) then the order of the maxima m = 0

so

$z - (5-z) = 0$

=> $2 z - 5 = 0$

=> $z= 2.5 \ m$

Generally the path difference for destructive interference is

$|z-(d-z)| = (2m + 1)\frac{\lambda}{2}$

=> $|2z - d |= (0 + 1)\frac{\lambda}{2}$

=> $|2z - d| =\frac{\lambda}{2}$

substituting values

$|2z - 5| =\frac{6}{2}$

=> $z = \frac{5 \pm 3}{2}$

So

$z = \frac{5 + 3}{2}$

$z = 4\ m$

and

$z = \frac{ 5 -3 }{2}$

=> $z = 1 \ m$

=> $z = (1 \ m , 4 \ m )$

A lightning bolt transfers 6.0 coulombs of charge from a cloud to the ground in 2.0 x 10-3 second. what is the average current d

AlladinOne [14]

The current is defined as the amount of charge transferred through a certain point in a certain time interval:
$I= \frac{Q}{\Delta t}$
where
I is the current
Q is the charge
$\Delta t$ is the time interval

For the lightning bolt in our problem, Q=6.0 C and $\Delta t= 2.0 \cdot 10^{-3}s$ , so the average current during the event is
$I= \frac{Q}{\Delta t} = \frac{6.0 C}{2.0 \cdot 10^{-3} s}=3000 A$
