An experiment was devised to investigate the effects on the temperature of a cup of coffee when cream is added at different time

intervals. Hot and cold water were used instead of coffee and cream. First, a container of water heated to 80°C was allowed to sit for 15 minutes. Its temperature was measured at regular intervals. Next, similar temperature measurements were taken for 15 minutes on a new container of heated water, but this time some cold water was added after the 2-minute reading. Finally, the procedure was repeated except that for this last test, the cold water was added after the 12-minute reading. The resulting recorded temperatures were plotted on the graph shown here.  
1. What question was asked in the experiment?


 2. What was the hypothesis, expressed as an if-then statement? 



 3. What were the independent and dependent variables?


 4. What was the control in the experiment? 



 5. There is one thing that is wrong about this graph. What is it?

Hypotheses followed by a conclusion is called an If-then statement or a conditional statement.

This is noted as

p→q

This is read - if p then q.

A conditional statement is false if hypothesis is true and the conclusion is false.

A dependent variable is what you measure in the experiment and what is affected during the experiment. The dependent variable responds to the independent variable. It is called dependent because it "depends" on the independent variable.

A scientific control is an experiment or observation designed to minimize the effects of variables other than the independent variable. This increases the reliability of the results, often through a comparison between control measurements and the other measurements.

Hi Babylilith32,

Your Question:

An experiment was devised to investigate the effects on the temperature of a cup of coffee when cream is added at different time intervals. Hot and cold water were used instead of coffee and cream. First, a container of water heated to 80°C was allowed to sit for 15 minutes. Its temperature was measured at regular intervals. Next, similar temperature measurements were taken for 15 minutes on a new container of heated water, but this time some cold water was added after the 2-minute reading. Finally, the procedure was repeated except that for this last test, the cold water was added after the 12-minute reading. The resulting recorded temperatures were plotted on the graph shown here.  

Answers:

1. If you have cool water then you have to add it to the hot water after a few minutes.

2. The independant variable is the cold water

3. The dependant variable is the temperature

4. The control is the hot water without the cold water.

5. The 2 min cold water drops way to much.

What is the significance of the nose end marking on a rocket or missile?
Gemiola [76]
If you're referring to the different colors that usually occur at the tip of missles, rockets and some other aircraft, it either a) signifies the end of a particular plate of metal, fabricated specifically to be for the nose. Sometimes these can even be a different alloy or metal all together. or b) this shows where the curved surface begins, so in the case of damage or imperfections due to wear, they can be repaired and measured more easily. The shape of the nose is extremely important for smooth flight, and a dent or bump formed on it can make the aircraft unstable. If you can measure from where the curve starts by the difference in color, it makes repairing or re-fabricating the part much easier. Many of these curves aren't as simple as they appear.

an audio CD has a diameter of 120 mm and spins at up to 540 rpm. When a CD is spinning at its maximum rate, how much time is req
Andru [333]

Answer:

 t = 0.1111 s

Explanation:

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

    d = 120 mm (1m / 1000 mm)

    d= 0.120 m

    w = 540 rpm (2pi rad / 1 rev) (1 min / 60s)  

     w= 56.55 rad / s

When at maximum speed we can use angular kinematic relationships to find the time for a sperm revolution with zero angular acceleration

     W = θ / t

     t = θ / w

     t = 2π / 56.55

     t = 0.1111 s
