Answer:

An independent variable is one which can be changed or manipulated in an experiment. The effect of the independent variable is observed on the dependent variable. The dependent variable is the one which does not change or manipulated in an experiment by the investigator. The changes that occur in the dependent variable with respect to the independent variable is the outcome of the experimentation process.

In the given situation, the medicine and the placebo drug are the independent samples whereas the effect of the medicine and placebo drug can be observed on the time they require to cure the headache is the dependent variable.

Yanni made a chart to compare the strong and weak forces. Which best describes Yanni’s error? Only the weak force is active in t
cluponka [151]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Nucleus of an atom consists of protons and neutrons. Protons are positively charged and neutrons have no charge. So, due to the like charges of protons there occurs electrostatic force of repulsion inside the nucleus of the atom.

But due to similar number of neutrons and protons a force that is able to bind both of them together is known as strong nuclear binding energy.

This force is strong enough that it is able to overcome electrostatic force of repulsion. But when there is great difference in the number of protons and neutrons then binding force is not strong enough.

Hence, the atom becomes unstable and undergoes radioactive decay. So, this means weak forces are responsible for radioactive decay.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement which best describes Yanni’s error is that the strong force is responsible for radioactive decay.

What's average temperature for a city fir a year
victus00 [196]

Answer:  

Average annual temperature in US cities would range between 50-70 degrees Fahrenheit  

Explanation:  

There are several factors that can influence the temperature of city in general. Higher altitude has a lower temperature because it has less air density and absorbs less sunlight. The city latitude coordinate also determines how much sunlight they will get. The closer the city to the equator, the more sunlight they can get.

Distance to the sea will influence the rate of rainfall and also influence temperature. Ocean currents can move hot water from other regions too.
