Controls or controlled variables are variables that should remain unchanged in the experiment. These variables can have a direct effect on the dependent variable. Take note that controlled variables are NOT what is being tested but can alter results. Three possible controls for this experiment would mainly be features of the ball and the ramp.

Examples and possible answers to your question would be:

1. Mass of the ball
2. Size of the ball
3. The density of the ball
4. Type of ball
5. Length of the ramp
6. Type of ramp
7. The thickness of the ramp

Other controls that you can consider also is the environment. Wind can also affect the ball that is being rolled.</span>

The early workers in spectroscopy (Fraunhofer with the solar spectrum, Bunsen and Kirchhoff with laboratory spectra) discovered
Anestetic [448]

The hot gases produce their own characteristic pattern of spectral lines, which remain fixed as the temperature increases moderately.

<h3><u>Explanation: </u></h3>

A continuous light spectrum emitted by excited atoms of a hot gas with dark spaces in between due to scattered light of specific wavelengths is termed as an atomic spectrum. A hot gas has excited electrons and produces an emission spectrum; the scattered light forming dark bands are called spectral lines.

Fraunhofer closely observed sunlight by expanding the spectrum and a huge number of dark spectral lines were seen.  "Robert Bunsen and Gustav Kirchhoff" discovered that when certain chemicals were burnt using a Bunsen burner, atomic spectra with spectral lines were seen. Atomic spectral pattern is thus a unique characteristic of any gas and can be used to independently identify presence of elements.

The spectrum change does not depend greatly on increasing temperatures and hence no significant change is observed in the emitted spectrum with moderate increase in temperature.

Between ball B and ball C, ball ____ has LESS potential energy because ___
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer: b

Explanation:

Ec= (1/2)m × v^2

By the formula, you can see that the bigger the mass, the bigger the Cinetic Energy.

During a solar eclipse our tiny moon totally blocks the sun because of .....
Vaselesa [24]

During a total solar eclipse, the moon passes between Earth and the sun. This completely blocks out the sun’s light. However, the moon is about 400 times smaller than the sun. How can it block all of that light?

An electric travel blanket uses a car's 12V supply. The current is 3A.
snow_lady [41]

For electrical devices . . .

           Power dissipated = (voltage) x (current) =

                                             (12 V)  x  (3.0 A) = 36 watts .

1 watt means 1 joule per second

           (36 joule/sec) x (60 sec/min) x (10 min)  =  21,600 joules
