First, before determining which variable is which, we go over the definition of each.
The independent variable is the one which is intentionally changed in order to investigate its effect on the dependent variable.
The dependent variable is monitored and changes occur in it due to the changing conditions of the independent variable.
In this case, the location of the African violets is the independent variable as it is intentionally changed, while the rate of growth of the African violets is the dependent variable as it is being measured.
Answer:
Diameter of the cylinder will be 
Explanation:
We have given young's modulus of steel
Change in length 
Length of rod 
Load F = 11100 KN
Strain is given by 
We know that young's modulus 
So 

We know that stress 
So 

So 
We know that tangential acceleration is related with radius and angular acceleration according the following equation:
at = r * aa
where at is tangential acceleration (in m/s2), r is radius (in m) aa is angular acceleration (in rad/s2)
So the radius is r = d/2 = 1.2/2 = 0.6 m
Then at = 0.6 * 5 = 3 m/s2
Tangential acceleration of a point on the flywheel rim is 3 m/s2
Answer:
The work done on the gas is equal to the area under the curve pv diagram w = area of triangle = 1/2 (base)(height) = 1/2 (BC)(Ac) = 1/2 (3v - v)(3p - p) = 1/2 (9 vp - 3 vp - 3vp + vp) = 4 vp/2 W = 2 vp
