A study finds that there is a positive correlation between height and math test scores. The researcher concludes that taller people are better at math. However, another researcher points out that height is also correlated with age, and age is correlated with greater knowledge of math. What issue does this example represent?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Spurious relationship

Explanation:

In statistics a spurious relationship is a correlated mathematical  relationship of covariation between two variables or more which by themselves have no cause and effect relationship as a result of a coincidence or the existence of a third or confounding factor

The variables have covariation due to their correlation but they don't have a cause and effect relationship

An example of a spurious relationship is the increase in ice cream sales when there is an observed increase in the rate of drowning.

Answers

Answer: 2858.7726N

Explanation:

Given that :

Charge 1 (q1) = -0.00125 C

Charge 2 (q2) = +0.00333 C

Distance (r) = 3.62 m

According to columb's Law: The magnitude of the force between any two charged objects :

Fe = (Kq1q2) / r^2

Coloumb's constant(k) = 9×10^9 Nm^2/C^2

Fe = (9×10^9 * 0.00125 * 0.00333) / 3.62^2

Fe = (0.0000374625 * 10^9) / 13.1044

Fe = 37462.5 / 13.1044

Fe = 2858.7726N

Write a report on the lap experiment: Motion with Constant Acceleration

Answers

Answer:

Purpose: To observe how an object’s position and velocity change while it is moving with a constant acceleration.

Question: How does an object’s position and velocity change as the object accelerates?

Hypothesis: If the fan speed increases, then the acceleration of the cart increases, because a greater fan speed supplies more energy to move the cart.

Variables:

• Independent variable: fan speed

• Dependent variable: acceleration of the cart

• Controlled variables: mass

Materials:

• Cart with Fan (1 kg)

• CM ruler (1 cm)

• Stop watch (0.0 cm pe sec)

• Flag

Procedure:

1. Use the setup on “Force and Fan Carts” Gizmo.

2. First, put the fan speed on low and no friction surface.

3. Press the start button and record the final time when the cart crosses the finished line. Record on table B.

4. Then, click on the data tab to record the speed data, total distance, average velocity, and acceleration. Record on table A and B.

5. After, observe the position vs. time graph with the speed and line graph toggled. Record on table C.

6. Repeat steps 2-5 on fan speed on medium and high with no friction surface.

7. Next, reset and put fan speed on low.

8. Press start and pause on 4 seconds.

9. On the same trial turn off the fan speed and hit start again.

10. Observe the graph and write observations on table D.

Analysis and Conclusion:

In conclusion, my hypothesis matches the data, because the data shows that increasing the fan speed increases the acceleration of the cart. The trends for all fan speeds are linear slope for speed. The higher the fan speed, the less time it took for the cart to cross the finish line.

Answers

Answer:

A. -50 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Velocity of Chairlift = +15m/s

Velocity of Skier = -35m/s

Required

Determine the velocity of the skier relative to the chairlift

Basically, relative velocity is the difference between the two velocities;

Having said that;

Relative velocity of the skier relative to the chairlift = Velocity of the Skier - Velocity of the Chairlift

Relative velocity of the skier relative to the chairlift = -35m/s - (+15m/s)

Open bracket

Relative velocity of the skier relative to the chairlift = -35m/s - 15m/s

Relative velocity of the skier relative to the chairlift = -50

Explanation:

The rate at which magma cools determines the size of the crystals in the new rock. Igneous rocks are formed from the cooling and solidification of molten magma which finds its way to the surface or depth of very low pressure beneath the surface. This place or depth of cooling of magma affects the cooling rate and hence the size of the crystals formed. Igneous rocks formed at depths below the surface have more time to cool and allows more time for Crystal growth and hence produce coarse grained crystal grains called Intrusive igneous rocks which have significantly larger crystals than those formed on the surface which cools rapidly and allowing very little time for crystal growth giving rise to the formation of fine grained crystals and are called extrusive igneous rocks.

car 2 has a mass of 150 kg and moves westward towards car 3 at a velocity of 2.2 m/s. car 3 has a mass of 265 kg and moves eastward towards car 2 at a velocity of 1.5 m/s. calculate the force of Car 3 and Car 2. dunno if I phrased this right so I included a screenshot too. pls help asap will give brainliest

Answers

Answer:

The force of car 3 on car 2 ≈ 1810.82 N

Explanation:

The equation for the change in momentum of the two cars are;

Conservation of linear momentum

150( 2.2 - v) = 265(1.5-v)

150 × 2.2 - 265×1.5 = (150+265)v

150 × 2.2 - 265×1.5 = -67.5 = 415×v

∴ v = -67.5/415 = -0.1627 m/s West = 0.1627 m/s East

The impulse of the net force is the amount of momentum change experienced given by the equation;

Impulse force = [tex]m \times v_f[/tex] - [tex]m \times v_0[/tex]

Where;

[tex]v_f[/tex] = The final velocity

[tex]v_0[/tex] = The initial velocity

For the the 265 kg mass, we have;

[tex]v_f[/tex] = 0.1627 m/s

[tex]v_0[/tex] = 1.5 m/s

Which gives the impulse a s F×Δt =  265×0.1627 - 265×1.5 = -354.38 kg·m/s

The change in kinetic energy of the collision = 1/2×265×(0.1627^2 - 1.5^2) =-294.62 J

Whereby the distance moved in one second is 0.1627 m, we have;

Work done = Force × Distance = Force × 0.1627 = 294.62

Force = 294.62/0.1627 = 1810.82 N.

Answers

Answer:

  q₁ = -6.54 10⁻⁵ C

Explanation:

Force is a vector quantity, but since all charges are on the x-axis, we can work in one dimension, let's apply Newton's second law

                F = F₁₂ + F₂₃

the electric force is given by Coulomb's law

                F = k q₁q₂ / r₁₂²

let's write the expression for each force

                F₂₃ = k q₂ q₃ / r₂₃²

                F₂₃ = 9 10⁹ 34.4 10⁻⁶ 72.8 10⁻⁶ / 0.1²

                F₂₃ = 2.25 10³ N

               

                F₁₂ = k q₁q₂ / r₁₂²

                F₁₂ = 9 10⁹ q₁ 34.4 10⁻⁶ / 0.1²

                F₁₂ = q₁   3,096 10⁷ N

we substitute in the first equation

                225 = q₁  3,096 10⁷ +2.25 10³

                q₁ = (225 - 2.25 10³) / 3,096 10⁷

                q₁ = -6.54 10⁻⁵ C

What is an electrons?

An electron is a subatomic particle. the other subatomic particles that constitutes an atom are neutrons and  protons. neutrons and protons are located inside the nucleus and electrons are revolving around the nucleus through circular paths of fixed energies.

Electrons are having negative charge and protons are positively charged particles. For an atom the number of protons and electrons are the same. Therefore, an element in its atomic state is neutral.

Neutrons are neutral. However both neutrons and protons are having significant mass compared to an electrons. Hence, the representation of electrons include zero mass and -1 charge. Hence, option A is correct.

b ) ( About ) 84°C

Explanation:

a ) We can solve this problem assuming that the dishwater remains a constant 78°C the entire duration.

Q = mass of the glass [tex]*[/tex] specific heat of the glass

The mass of the glass is given by 401 g, the specific heat by 840 J / kg [tex]*[/tex] C. Respectively the change in temperature would be the difference between the temperature of the dishwater, and that of the glass. As we want the units in Joules, we need to first convert the 401 g ⇒ kilograms.

401 g = 401 / 1000 kg = 0.401 kg,

Q = 0.401 kg [tex]*[/tex] 840 J / kg 19,536.72 J

b ) We know that the specific heat capacity of water is 4.184 J / g [tex]*[/tex] C. As the final temperature will be common between each substance, we can make their respective heat absorbed, the same. Note that the heat capacity is given in J / g

0.023 kg = 0.023 [tex]*[/tex] 1000 = 23 g,

0.18 kg = 180 g

[tex]- ( 180 )( 4.184 )( x - 93 ) = 23( 4.184 )( x - 14 )[/tex],

[tex]-753.12x+70040.16=96.232x-1347.248[/tex],
