An experiment is designed to test the relationship between the initial height of a basketball before it is dropped to the height

of its rebound bounce. The height of the rebound bounce is measured using a scale positioned behind the ball. In the above experiment, which condition would not be controlled?
A). the starting height of the ball
B). the surface the ball bounces on
C). the type of ball
D). the method to measure the rebound height of the ball

Answer:

A. The starting height of the ball

Explanation:

When we talk about controlled variables, we refer to the variable that should be kept the same throughout the experiment. The reason why we do this, is to limit anything else that is not being tested, that may affect the results of the experiment.

In the scenario given, the experiment is to see the relationship between the <u>initial height of a basketball</u> and the <u>height of its rebound bounce. </u>

So you the starting height of the ball should vary, meaning it is NOT controlled.

Continent jig-saw shapes when puzzled and combined together, formed one big continent - Pangea, and was separated by drifts.

Fossil comparisons of different species were discovered into two different, separated continents in which when you combine them, they were one in the past.

Seismic, volcanic, and geothermal activity are found along imagined plate boundaries. 

Plates were actually rubbing against each other as evidence is seen on the formed mountain ranges.

Water is flowing in a pipe with a circular cross section but with varying cross-sectional area, and at all points the water comp
slamgirl [31]

(a) 5.66 m/s

The flow rate of the water in the pipe is given by

Q=Av

where

Q is the flow rate

A is the cross-sectional area of the pipe

v is the speed of the water

Here we have

Q=1.20 m^3/s

the radius of the pipe is

r = 0.260 m

So the cross-sectional area is

A=\pi r^2 = \pi (0.260 m)^2=0.212 m^2

So we can re-arrange the equation to find the speed of the water:

v=\frac{Q}{A}=\frac{1.20 m^3/s}{0.212 m^2}=5.66 m/s

(b) 0.326 m

The flow rate along the pipe is conserved, so we can write:

Q_1 = Q_2\\A_1 v_1 = A_2 v_2

where we have

A_1 = 0.212 m^2\\v_1 = 5.66 m/s\\v_2 = 3.60 m/s

and where A_2 is the cross-sectional area of the pipe at the second point.

Solving for A2,

A_2 = \frac{A_1 v_1}{v_2}=\frac{(0.212 m^2)(5.66 m/s)}{3.60 m/s}=0.333 m^2

And finally we can find the radius of the pipe at that point:

A_2 = \pi r_2^2\\r_2 = \sqrt{\frac{A_2}{\pi}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.333 m^2}{\pi}}=0.326 m
