Which of the following best describes the dependant variable?

1 answer:

5 0

Hello!

The independent variable is the variable deliberately changed.

The dependent variable is the variable that responds to change. So the answer is A.

Hope this helps. Any questions please just ask! Thank you!

Springfield's "classic rock" radio station broadcasts at a frequency of 102.1 mhz. what is the length of the radio wave in meter

Mila [183]

The frequency of the radio wave is:
$f=102.1 MHz = 102.1 \cdot 10^6 Hz$

The wavelength of an electromagnetic wave is related to its frequency by the relationship
$\lambda= \frac{c}{f}$
where c is the speed of light and f the frequency. Plugging numbers into the equation, we find
$\lambda= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{102.1 \cdot 10^6 Hz}= 2.94 m$
and this is the wavelength of the radio waves in the problem.

James Cameron piloted a submersible craft to the bottom of the Challenger Deep, the deepest point on the ocean's floor, 11,000 m

Over [174]

Answer:

$4.1\cdot 10^8 N$

Explanation:

First of all, we need to find the pressure exerted on the sphere, which is given by:

$p=p_0 + \rho g h$

where

$p_0 =1.01\cdot 10^5 Pa$ is the atmospheric pressure

$\rho = 1000 kg/m^3$ is the water density

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the gravitational acceleration

$h=11,000 m$ is the depth

Substituting,

$p=1.01\cdot 10^5 Pa + (1000 kg/m^3)(9.8 m/s^2)(11,000 m)=1.08\cdot 10^8 Pa$

The radius of the sphere is r = d/2= 1.1 m/2= 0.55 m

So the total area of the sphere is

$A=4 \pi r^2 = 4 \pi (0.55 m)^2=3.8 m^2$

And so, the inward force exerted on it is

$F=pA=(1.08\cdot 10^8 Pa)(3.8 m^2)=4.1\cdot 10^8 N$

A gas station owner suspects that he is being overcharged for gasoline deliveries by a gasoline supplier. The overcharge seems p

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Explanation:

delta V = v * alpha * delta T

= V * 0.00053 * (92.2 - 55.0)

= 0.019716 V

percentage that the owner

= [delta V / V] * 100

= [0.019716 V / V] * 100

= 1.9716 %

A 250 GeV beam of protons is fired over a distance of 1 km. If the initial size of the wave packet is 1 mm, find its final size

Margarita [4]

Answer:

The final size is approximately equal to the initial size due to a very small relative increase of $1.055\times 10^{- 7}$ in its size

Solution:

As per the question:

The energy of the proton beam, E = 250 GeV = $250\times 10^{9}\times 1.6\times 10^{- 19} = 4\times 10^{- 8} J$

Distance covered by photon, d = 1 km = 1000 m

Mass of proton, $m_{p} = 1.67\times 10^{- 27} kg$

The initial size of the wave packet, $\Delta t_{o} = 1 mm = 1\times 10^{- 3} m$

Now,

This is relativistic in nature

The rest mass energy associated with the proton is given by:

$E = m_{p}c^{2}$

$E = 1.67\times 10^{- 27}\times (3\times 10^{8})^{2} = 1.503\times 10^{- 10} J$

This energy of proton is $\simeq 250 GeV$

Thus the speed of the proton, v $\simeq c$

Now, the time taken to cover 1 km = 1000 m of the distance:

T = $\frac{1000}{v}$

T = $\frac{1000}{c} = \frac{1000}{3\times 10^{8}} = 3.34\times 10^{- 6} s$

Now, in accordance to the dispersion factor;

$\frac{\delta t_{o}}{\Delta t_{o}} = \frac{ht_{o}}{2\pi m_{p}\Delta t_{o}^{2}}$

$\frac{\delta t_{o}}{\Delta t_{o}} = \frac{6.626\times 10^{- 34}\times 3.34\times 10^{- 6}}{2\pi 1.67\times 10^{- 27}\times (10^{- 3})^{2} = 1.055\times 10^{- 7}$

Thus the increase in wave packet's width is relatively quite small.

Hence, we can say that:

$\Delta t_{o} = \Delta t$

where

$\Delta t$ = final width
