You want to determine whether the mass of an object attached to a parachute affects the time it takes to fall to the ground. In

this investigation, would "the material the parachute is made out of" be a suitable control variable? no or yes​

Answer:

The Answer is below!!

Explanation:

The larger the area of the parachute, the more air needs to be pushed out of the way, and so the slower it descends. the independent variable is the shape of the parachutes' canopies. The dependent variable is the drop speeds of the parachutes. How long does it take for the parachutes to reach the ground? Measure this using a stopwatch.

Hope I Helped!!

A voltage V is applied to the primary coil of a step-up transformer with a 3:1 ratio of turns between its primary and secondary
Snezhnost [94]

Explanation:

Let N_p\ and\ N_s are the number of turns in primary and secondary coil of the transformer such that,

\dfrac{N_p}{N_s}=\dfrac{1}{3}

A resistor R connected to the secondary dissipates a power P_s=100\ W

For a transformer, \dfrac{N_s}{N_p}=\dfrac{V_s}{V_p}

V_s=(\dfrac{N_s}{N_p})V_p

V_s=3V_p...............(1)

The power dissipated through the secondary coil is :

P_s=\dfrac{V_s^2}{R}

100\ W=\dfrac{V_s^2}{R}

V_p^2=\dfrac{100R}{9}.............(2)

Let N_p'\ and\ N_s' are the new number of turns in primary and secondary coil of the transformer such that,

\dfrac{N_p'}{N_s'}=\dfrac{1}{24}

New voltage is :

V_s'=(\dfrac{N_s'}{N_p'})V_p'

V_s'=24V_p...............(3)

So, new power dissipated is P_s'

P_s'=\dfrac{V_s'^2}{R}

P_s'=\dfrac{(24V_p)^2}{R}

P_s'=24^2\times \dfrac{(V_p)^2}{R}

P_s'=24^2\times \dfrac{(\dfrac{100R}{9})}{R}

P_s'=6400\ Watts

So, the new power dissipated by the same resistor is 6400 watts. Hence, this is the required solution.

Periodic waves with a wavelength of 0.50 meter move with a speed of 0.30 meter in medium A. When the waves enter medium B, they
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

0.25 m

Explanation:

Refraction occurs when the velocity or wavelength of a wave changes at the interface between two media.

We know that refractive index=

Wavelength in medium A/wavelength in medium B = velocity in medium A/velocity in medium B

Let the wavelength of medium B be a

0.5/a = 0.3/0.15

0.5 × 0.15 = 0.3 × a

a= 0.5 × 0.15/0.3

a= 0.25 m

Amy crashed her bike into the fence. She was thrown over it onto the lawn. Which Newton law applies
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Newton's First Law of Motion applies here.

Explanation:

Before crashing into the fence, Amy was moving at a certain speed on her bike. As, she crashed her bike into the fence, the collision stopped the bike suddenly. But, Amy had the same speed due to inertia of her body. Due tot  his speed Amy did not stop and she was thrown over the fence onto the lawn. So, the force of inertia of Amy's body caused her to be overthrown in this case. We study about inertia in Newton's First Law of Motion, which is also known as Law of Inertia.

<u>Newton's First Law of Motion applies here.</u>
