Read the scenario below and identify the Independent Variable, Dependent Variable, the Control group, and at least two Constants. Suggest a hypothesis for each scenario: After studying about recycling in his new issue of Organic Compost Quarterly, members of Filbert's compost club decided to investigate the effect of various recycled products on plant growth. Filbert's friends finally decided to compare the effect of different aged grass compost on Jalapeno pepper plants. Because decomposition is necessary for release of nutrients, the group hypothesized that older grass compost would produce taller pepper plants. Three flats of pepper plants (25 plants/flat) were grown for 5 days. The plants were then fertilized as follows: Flat A: 450 g of three-month-old compost Flat B: 450 g of six-month-old compost Flat C: 0 g of compost The plants received the same amount of sunlight and water each day. At the end of 30 days the group recorded the height of the plants (cm) and then threw a party featuring Jalapeno peppers stuffed with cream cheese!

a. calculate the netforce
b. magnitude of force
c. coefficient of kinetic friction​

Answers

Explanation:

a. Net force is mass times acceleration (Newton's second law).

∑F = ma

∑F = (5.0 kg) (2.0 m/s²)

∑F = 10 N

b. The net force is the sum of the individual forces.

10 N = F − 5 N

F = 15 N

c. Friction force here is mgμ.

mgμ = 5 N

(5.0 kg) (10 m/s) μ = 5 N

μ = 0.1

1. If the front of the red car is used as a reference point, how far away is the white van?

Answers

Answer:

-36 m

Explanation:

In the diagram, the front of the black car is used as reference point which is point 0. The distance from the black car to the front of the red car is 15 m while the distance from the black car to the white van is - 21 m. The negative sign means the white van is behind the black car.

If the red car is used as the reference (point 0), the distance from the black car to the red car would be -15 m and the distance from the black car to the white van would be -21 m. Hence:

Distance from red car to white van = distance from the black car to the red car  + distance from the black car to the white van = -15 + (-21)

Distance from red car to white van = -15 - 21 = -36 m

Answer:

The answer is -36

A car is traveling at some speed when it accelerates at 6 m/s2 for 3 seconds. If the car travels 39 meters in this time, how fast was it going before it sped up?

Answers

Answer:

4 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Δx = 39 m

a = 6 m/s²

t = 3 s

Find: v₀

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

39 m = v₀ (3 s) + ½ (6 m/s²) (3 s)²

v₀ = 4 m/s

A giant armadillo moving northward with a constant acceleration covers the distance between two points 60 m apart in 6
seconds. Its velocity as it passes the second point is 15m/s.

Answers

Answer:

 a = 1.66 m /s²

Explanation:

This is a kinematics exercise

       v = v₀ + a t

        x = v₀ t + ½ a t²

we solve for the initial velocity in the first equation and substitute in the second

       v₀ = v - at

        x = (v- at) t + ½ a t²

        x = vt - a t² + ½ a t²

        x = v t - ½ a t²

we seek acceleration

       a = (v t -x) 2 / t²

let's calculate

        a = (15 6 - 60) 2/6²

        a = 1.66 m /s²

Given:

Object distance (u) = 25.0 cm

Image distance (v) = -50.0 cm

To Find:

Magnification (m)

Explanation:

[tex]\boxed{\bold{\sf Magnification \: (m) = - \frac{Image \: distance \: (v)}{Object \: distance \: (u)}}}[/tex]

Substituting values of Image distance(v) & Object distance (u) in the equation:

A weight lifter lifts a set of 212 kg weights to a height of 1.75 m. How much
potential energy to the weights now have?

Answers

Answer:

Potential energy = 3635.8 Joules

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight lifted by a weight lifter is 12 kg

It lifts to a height of 1.75 m

We need to find the potential energy to the wights now have. The energy possessed by an object due to its position or height above ground is called potential energy. Its formula is given by :

P = mgh

g is the acceleration due to gravity

[tex]P=212\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 1.75\ m\\\\P=3635.8\ J[/tex]

So, the potential energy is 3635.8 joules.

On arrival at a vehicle collision, you observe a small fire in the engine compartment. A bystander is attempting to smother the fire with a jacket as you approach with an A-B-C extinguisher from your ambulance. Which of the following is the best method of extinguishing the fire?
a. Sweep the nozzle of the extinguisher left and right using short bursts until you are out of extinguishing agent.
b. Aim at the base of the fire and use short bursts until the fire is out.
c. Close the hood to contain the fire within the engine compartment.
d. Aim the nozzle to the side of the fire and, with a sweeping motion, push the fire at its base

Answers

Answer:

Aim at the base of the fire and use short bursts until the fire is out.

Explanation:

Fire extinguishers use CO2 (Carbondioxide) as the extinguishing agent. This is because CO2 is denser than air, and does not support combustion.

Aiming at the base of the fire causes the CO2 to fall on the base of the fire, where the source of the fire is, trapping it, and preventing it from further reacting with air in a combustion reaction. Also, the short burst creates a strong wind that forces the flame to blow out.

What is the SI unit of gravitational constant?

Answers

Explanation:

The force between two bodies is given by :

[tex]F=G\dfrac{m_1m_2}{r^2}[/tex]

And this force is called the gravitational force

r is the distance between bodies

G is universal gravitational constant

[tex]G=\dfrac{Fr^2}{m_1m_2}[/tex]

SI unit of force is Newton or N

SI unit of r is meter or m

The SI unit of m₁ and m₂ is kg

[tex]G=\dfrac{\text{Nm}^2}{\text{kg}^2}\\\\G=Nm^2kg^{-2}[/tex]

Newton = kg m/s²

So,

[tex]G=\dfrac{kgm^3}{s^2kg^2}\\\\G=kg^{-1} m^3s^{-2}[/tex]

Hence, this is the required solution.

The scale is 1:30 and their are 10 boulders. How many boulders are their in the real pond
A:20
B:10
C:300
D:3

Answers

Answer:

the correct answer is C

Explanation:

When we express that the scale is 1:30 we mean that the objects of the realization are reduced by a factor of 30 in the graph, for example a distance of 30 cm in the graph is represented by a distance of 1 cm.

Therefore something that in the graph has n value to bring it to real size must be multiplied by the scale.

Applying this to our case if there is

               10 boulder on the chart

in reality there are #_boulder = 10 30

                                #_boulder = 300 boulder

so the correct answer is C

PLEASE HELP SOON AS POSSIBLE

Answers

Answer: 1,898 • 10^27 kg

Explanation:

A pex

The mass of Jupiter can be expressed in scientific notation as 1.898 ×10²⁷ Kg. Therefore, option (A) is correct.

What is scientific notation?

Scientific notation can be described as a form of representing very large numbers in a simpler form. As we know, whole numbers can be extended to infinity, but we cannot write such numbers on a piece of paper.

Scientific notation helps us to represent the numbers that are very huge in a form of multiplication of single-figure numbers and 10 raised to the power of the respective exponent.

To determine the exponent of 10, we should follow the rule such as the base must be always 10. The exponent should be a non-zero integer, which means it can be either positive or negative.

The absolute value of the coefficient should be greater than or equal to 1 but it must be less than 10.

Given the number is 1,898,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 Kg can be written as 1.898 ×10²⁷ Kg in scientific notation.

(b) If the straight-line distance from her home to the university is 10.3 km in a direction 25.0° south of east, what was her average velocity?

Answers

Answer:

The time taken is missing in the question. The time is 18 minutes.

The answer is 34.3 km/hr

Explanation:

Average velocity is the speed or the velocity which is required to cover a distance in a time interval.

The time taken is = 18 min

                            = 18/60 hours

The distance from the university to her home is = 10.3 km

Therefore, the average velocity is = displacement/time taken

                                                         = 10.3 / (18/60) km/hr

                                                         = 34.3 km/hr

Hence, the average velocity is 34.3 km/hr

If we increase the amount of work being done, and all other factors remain the same, the amount of power would​

Answers

Answer:

The power will increase

Explanation:

Power is the rate in which work is done or the rate of doing work

The formula for power is given as follows;

[tex]Power = \dfrac{Work \ done}{Time \ taken \ to \ do \ the \ work}[/tex]

Therefore, power is directly proportional to work, and when work is increased provided all other factors remain constant, the power will be increased proportionately.

As such, for example, when the work is doubled, and the time to do the work is the same, the power has also doubled.
