The constant is the temperature of the air that the plants get.
The independent variable is the thing that YOU control. That's the amount of sunlight each plant gets.
The <em>dependent variable</em> is anything that's caused by changes in the independent variable. That's the growth of the plants.
The one fact that needs to be mentioned but isn't given anywhere on or around the graph is: The distance, on the vertical axis, is the distance FROM home. So any point on the graph where the distance is zero ... the point is in the x-axis ... is a point AT home.
Segment D ...
Walking AWAY from home; distance increases as time increases.
Segment B ...
Not walking; distance doesn't change as time increases.
Segment C ...
Walking away from home, but slower than before; distance increases as time increases, but not as fast. Slope is less than segment-D.
Segment A ...
Going home; distance is DEcreasing as time increases. Walking pretty fast ... the slope of the line is steep.
Current is inversely proportional to the resistance of the resistor and directly to the potential difference across it.
I = V/R = 6/12 = 0.5 A
<span>I believe this question has additional detail which stated
that during the 1st half, his speed was 2.01 m/s. From this we can
calculate his speed during the second half, v2, using the formula:</span>
v_ave = (v1 + v2) / 2
2.05 m/s = (2.01 m/s + v2) / 2
<span>v2 = 2.09 m/s</span>
