A student runs a simulation of resource consumption in which cereal is used to model a resource. the student spends 15 seconds u

sing a fork and an index card to pick up pieces of cereal and transfer them to a cup. the student runs the simulation two times, keeping all factors the same except the amount of cereal that cant be picked up at one time. what variable is the student most likely testing?
a. harvesting time
b. population size
c. rate of harvesting
d. evenness of distribution

Answer:


The most appropriate answer would be c. the rate of harvesting.


The rate of harvesting would be best considered as an dependent variable of the experiment that is, it is the variable that is being tested in the experiment.


The student wants to set a relation between "time is taken to pick up cereal and transfer them to a cup" and "amount of cereal picked up at one time".


The rate of harvesting in this case depends upon the amount of cereals picked up at one time.

Thus, he or she wants to test the rate (number of cereals per unit time) at which cereals can be transferred to the cup.

After cooking the hot dogs, your friend's mom reminds you not to leave the grill out, or the iron (Fe) in the grill will react w
sammy [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Oxygen gas and water must be present for iron to rust.

A region of the metal’s surface serves as the anode, where oxidation

occurs:

Fe(s) → Fe²⁺ (aq) + 2 e⁻

The electrons given up by iron reduce atmospheric oxygen to water at the cathode, which is another region of the same metal’s surface:

O₂ (g) + 4H⁺ (aq) + 4 e⁻ → 2 H₂O (l)

The overall redox reaction is:

2 Fe(s) + O₂(g) → 4H⁺(aq) + 2Fe²⁺ (aq) + 2 H₂O(l)

The Fe²⁺ ions formed at the anode are further oxidized by oxygen:

4 Fe²⁺ (aq) + O₂(g) 1 (4 + 2x) H₂O (l) → 2 Fe₂O₃ . xH₂O(s) + 8 H⁺(aq)

This hydrated form of iron(III) oxide is known as rust. The amount of water associated with the iron oxide varies, so we represent the formula as 2 Fe₂O₃ . xH₂O.

Point A is the same distance from the epicenter as point B. Using what you know about the movement of waves, how would you
never [62]

A.  The waves would be exactly the same at points A and B.

Explanation:

The seismic waves at both point A and B would be exactly the same at the two points.

Seismic waves are elastic waves that spreads out concentrically in all directions from their source.

  • Both S and P waves are body waves that moves within the earth.
  • In a seismic station, the p-waves or primary waves arrives first before the s-waves or secondary waves.
  • At any point equidistant from the epicenter, baring any geologic differences in the subsurface, the waves would be exactly the same at all points.
