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.

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 quantity does the Hamiltonian correspond to? Rest mass Potential energy Total energy Kinetic energy Bohr frequency Lagrangi
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

The correct option is: Total energy

Explanation:

The Hamiltonian operator, in quantum mechanics, is an operator that is associated with the<u> total energy of the system.</u> It is equal to the sum of the total kinetic energy and the potential energy of all the particles of the system.

The Hamiltonian operator was named after the Irish mathematician, William Rowan Hamiltonis denoted and is denoted by H.

A camcorder has a power rating of 15 watts. If the output voltage from its battery is 5 volts, what current does it use?
MrMuchimi

Formula

W = E * I

Givens

E = 5 volts

W = 15 watts

I = ?

Solution

W = E * I

15 = 5 * I

15/5 = I

I = 3 amps.   Answer

The information on a can of soda indicates that the can contains 355 mL. The mass of a full can of soda is 0.369 kg, while an em
Vilka [71]

Answer:

\rho=995.50\ kg.m^{-3}

\bar w=9765.887\ N.m^{-3}

s=0.9955

Explanation:

Given:

  • volume of liquid content in the can, v_l=0.355\ L=3.55\times 10^{-4}\ L
  • mass of filled can, m_f=0.369\ kg
  • weight of empty can, w_c=0.153\ N

<u>So, mass of the empty can:</u>

m_c=\frac{w_c}{g}

m_c=\frac{0.153}{9.81}

m_c=0.015596\ kg

<u>Hence the mass of liquid(soda):</u>

m_l=m_f-m_c

m_l=0.369-0.015596

m_l=0.3534\ kg

<u>Therefore the density of liquid soda:</u>

\rho=\frac{m_l}{v_l} (as density is given as mass per unit volume of the substance)

\rho=\frac{0.3534}{3.55\times 10^{-4}}

\rho=995.50\ kg.m^{-3}

<u>Specific weight of the liquid soda:</u>

\bar w=\frac{m_l.g}{v_l}=\rho.g

\bar w=995.5\times 9.81

\bar w=9765.887\ N.m^{-3}

Specific gravity is the density of the substance to the density of water:

s=\frac{\rho}{\rho_w}

where:

\rho_w= density of water

s=\frac{995.5}{1000}

s=0.9955
