Answer:

The time it takes particles to form sediment on the bottom of a containers

Explanation:

The dependent variable would be <u>the time it takes different particle sizes to settle out of water in order to form sediment on the bottom of containers.</u>

<em>The dependent variable is an experimental variable whose value varies according to the independent variable supplied by the researcher during the course of an experiment. The value either increases or decreases with each value of the independent variable. </em>

In order to answer the question in the illustration, different particle sizes would have to be supplied by the student as an input - the independent variable - and the time it takes for each particle size to settle and form sediment recorded - the dependent variable.

What forms at the boundary between two different air masses of different properties?
Agata [3.3K]
The weather of the United States east of the Rocky Mountains is dominated by large masses of air that travel south from the wide expanses of land in Canada, and north from the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Not surprisingly, the term air mass means a large body of air (sometimes as large as one million square miles!) that can be characterized by their temperature and humidity. Such large bodies of air form over large portions of the surface of the Earth, and we use the term source region to describe the areas of the Earth over which large air masses form. The diagram below shows the major source regions and air masses for the United States:
