What is a controlled factor in an experiment?

1 answer:

3 0

Sorry this will probably be pretty long.

So think of the "control" as being something you yourself add to increase or decrease the effects in an experiment.
I'll give you an example so it is not as confusing.
Say you have decided to make an experiment on plants. Which plant can grow the fastest on which type of liquid? What is being added to this experiment? The liquid! Or all of the liquids you used. Like if you used Coke, Lime Gatorade, Orange Gatorade, and Water. Each drink will EFFECT each plant differently.
Hope I was of any hope?

What past or current environments allowed Nuclear Power to form?

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

creation of radioactive wastes such as uranium mill tailings, spent (used) reactor fuel, and other radioactive wastes.

Explanation:

Nuclear energy produces radioactive waste

A major environmental concern related to nuclear power is the creation of radioactive wastes such as uranium mill tailings, spent (used) reactor fuel, and other radioactive wastes. These materials can remain radioactive and dangerous to human health for thousands of years.

Flourine is found to undergo 10% radioactivity decay in 366 minutes determine its halflife

yuradex [85]

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{2408 min}}$

Explanation:

The integrated rate law for radioactive decay is

$\ln\dfrac{N_{0}}{N_{t}} = kt$

1. Calculate the decay constant

$\begin{array}{rcl}\ln \dfrac{100}{90} & = & k \times 366\\\\1.054 & = & 366k\\\\k & = & \dfrac{1.054 }{366}\\\\k & = & 2.879 \times 10^{-4} \text{ min}^{-1}\\\end{array}\\\\$

2. Calculate the half-life

$t_{\frac{1}{2}} = \dfrac{\ln2}{k}\\\\t_{\frac{1}{2}} = \dfrac{\ln2}{2.879 \times 10^{-4} \text{ min}^{-1}} = \text{2408 min}\\\\\text{The half-life for decay is } \boxed{\textbf{2408 min}}$
