Anita was using steel to make rusted sculptures. After building each sculpture, she caused the steel in the sculpture to rust by

placing it into a tub filled
with salt water for eight hours. Anita wondered if steel would rust faster submerged in vinegar instead of salt water. To find out, Anita cut ten squares of

steel sheet metal and split them into two equal groups. She put one group of squares into a tub filled with salt water and the other group of squares

into a tub filled with vinegar. Once an hour for eight hours, Anita counted the number of rusted steel squares in each group.

What is the manipulated independent variable in Anita's experiment?

Answer:

The type of liquid in the tub (salt water or vinegar)

Explanation:

<em>The manipulated independent variable in Anita's experiment is </em><em>the type of liquid in the tub. </em>

The independent variable is the controlled or manipulated variable in the course of an experiment. It can also be referred to as the 'cause' variable which has the capacity to produce 'effects' on another variable - the dependent variable.

In this case, the type of liquid the tub is filled (salt water or vinegar) will hypothetically affect the rusting period of the steel. Hence, the dependent variable is the type of liquid the tub is filled while the dependent variable would be the time it takes for the steel to get rusted.

What is the best description of what Becquerel observed in his experiment?
myrzilka [38]

The answer is: D.unstable nuclei emitting high-energy particles as they formed more stable compositions.

Those high-energy particles are alpha particles , beta particles , gamma radiation.

For example, the decay chain of ²³⁸U is called the uranium series.

Decay start with U-238 and ends with Pb-206. There are several alpha and beta minus decays.

Antoine Henri Becquerel (1852 – 1908) was a French physicist and the first person to discover evidence of radioactivity.

Becquerel wrapped fluorescing crystal (uranium salt potassium uranyl sulfate) in a cloth, along with the photographic plate and a copper Maltese cross.

Several days later, he discovered that a image of the cross appeared on the plate.

The uranium salt was emitting radiation.

Because of this discovery, Becquerel won a Nobel Prize for Physics in 1903, which he shared with Marie Curie and Pierre Curie.

Can any of you guys help me with this. Can y’all give me some facts about nucleus protons netrons and electrons :)
Mumz [18]

Answer:

the nucleus is the center of the atom, made up of protons and neutrons, without the nucleus you'd just have a bunch of electrons floating around; the nucleus is positively charged

protons are the positively charged particles that sit within the nucleus

neutrons are particles of no charge that sit within the nucleus, and because they have no charge, they do not cancel out the positive charge of the protons, making the nucleus positive

electrons are negatively charged particles that float around the nucleus in an area known as the electron cloud, they orbit around the nucleus because they are attracted to the positive charge of the nucleus (caused by the protons), with charges, opposites attract
