Oysters are filter feeders. They get their food by moving large amounts of water through their bodies and filtering out whatever

is in it. They eat plankton, algae, and similar things that they find in the water. They also remove dirt and chemicals that they find in the water.
How do oysters help other things that live in the water with them?
A.
by removing harmful substances from the water
B.
by removing food from the water
C.
by adding air to the water
D.
all of these

A. Oysters, clams, and other shellfish are efficient filter feeders that help remove excess nitrogen from waters by incorporating it into their shells and tissue as they grow. ... Adult oysters reportedly can filter up to 50 gallons a day, while large quahogs (hard clams) can clean about 24 gallons of water a day

2. For each pair of variables, identify which is the independent and which is the dependent variable. a. How much gas is left in
Korvikt [17]

For each pair Independent variable and the dependent variable is -

a. How much gas is left in the gas tank vs. how far the car has traveled.

  • Independent variable =  how far the car has traveled
  • dependent variable = How much gas is left in the gas tank

b. How much money you've spent vs. how much money is in your wallet.

  • Independent variable =  How much money you've spent
  • dependent variable = how much money is in your wallet.

c. How far a toy car traveled vs. how much time went by​

  • Independent variable =  how much time went by​
  • dependent variable = How far a toy car traveled

An independent variable in any experiment or research is a variable that is manipulated or changed in the experiment, this change leads to a direct effect on the dependent variable.

A dependent variable is a variable that is directly affected by the independent variable and it is the variable that is measured or tested in an experiment.

Thus,

a. How much gas is left in the gas tank vs. how far the car has traveled.

  • Independent variable =  how far the car has traveled
  • dependent variable = How much gas is left in the gas tank

b. How much money you've spent vs. how much money is in your wallet.

  • Independent variable =  How much money you've spent
  • dependent variable = how much money is in your wallet.

c. How far a toy car traveled vs. how much time went by​

  • Independent variable =  how much time went by​
  • dependent variable = How far a toy car traveled

What is the equivalent resistance of a circuit that contains three 10.0  resistors connected in series to a 6.0 V battery
disa [49]
The equivalent resistance of n resistors in series is given by:
R_{eq} = R_1 + R_2 + ... + R_n
In our circuit, we have three resistors of 10.0 \Omega each, therefore the equivalent resistance of the circuit is
R_{eq} = R_1 + R_2 + R_3 = 10.0 \Omega + 10.0 \Omega + 10.0 \Omega =30.0 \Omega

At one instant, the center of mass of a system of two particles is located on the x-axis at 2.0 cm and has a velocity of (5.0 m/
Nata [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

At one instant,

Center of mass is at 2m

Xcm = 2m

And velocity =5•i m/s

One of the particle is at the origin

M1=? X1 =0

The other has a mass M2=0.1kg

And it is at rest at position X2= 8m

a. Center of mass is given as

Xcm = (M1•X1 + M2•X2) / (M1+M2)

2 = (M1×0 + 0.1×8) /(M1 + 0.1)

2 = (0+ 0.8) /(M1 + 0.1)

Cross multiply

2(M1+0.1) = 0.8

2M1 + 0.2 =0.8

2M1 = 0.8-0.2

2M1 = 0.6

M1 = 0.6/2

M1 = 0.3kg

b. Total momentum, this is an inelastic collision and it momentum after collision is given as

P= (M1+M2)V

P = (0.3+0.1)×5•i

P = 0.4 × 5•i

P = 2 •i kgm/s

c. Velocity of particle at origin

Using conversation of momentum

Momentum before collision is equal to momentum after collision

P(before) = M1 • V1 + M2 • V2

We are told that M2 is initially at rest, then, V2=0

So, P(before) = 0.3V1

We already got P(after) = 2 •i kgm/s in part b of the question

Then,

P(before) = P(after)

0.3V1 = 2 •i

V1 = 2/0.3 •i

V1 = 6 ⅔ •i m/s

V1 = 6.667 •i m/s
