Answer:
Independent.
Explanation: The <em>Independent</em> variable is sometimes called the "manipulative" because it refers to a quantity that is changed by the experimenter.
Answer:
e. TA>T>Tc
Explanation:
a) In this case, we cannot say for sure QA>QB>QC. This is because the magnitude of the heat flow will depend on the specific heat and the mass of each sample. Due to the equation:

if we did an energy balance of the system, we would get that>
QA+QB+QC=0
For this equation to be true, at least one of the heats must be negative. And one of the heats must be positive.
We don't know either of them, so we cannot determine if this statement is true.
b) We can say for sure that QA<0, because when the two samples get to equilibrum, the temperatrue of A must be smaller than its original temperature. Therefore, it must have lost heat. But we cannot say for sure if QB<0 because sample B could have gained or lost heat during the process, this will depend on the equilibrium temperature, which we don't know. So we cannot say for sure this option is correct.
c) In this case we don't know for sure if the equilibrium temperature will be greater or smaller than TB. This will depend on the mass and specific heat of the samples, just line in part a.
d) is not complete
e) We know for sure that A must have lost heat, so its equilibrium temperature must be smaller than it's original temperature. We know that C must have gained heat, therefore it's equilibrium temperature must be greater than it's original temperature, so TA>T>Tc must be true.
A concave lens is a lens that has at least one of its surfaces or both surfaces curved inwards. Due to this reason, this lens diverges the light that falls on it and hence is also called a diverging lens. The concave lens is thinner in the middle compared to its edges. These are used in flashlights, binoculars, telescopes, etc.

Answer:
work done by the force, W = -147.97 J
Given:
displacement of the box, s = 4.73 m
angle between force and displacement, 
Force, F = 39.7 N
Solution:
Work done by the force can be expressed as the dot product of Force, F and displacement 's' is given by:
W = Fscos
W = 39.7
W = -147.97 J
where negative sign indicates that work is done on the block
