An egg farmer is experimetnting with different feed rations with the aim of increasing his production whilst reducing the cost of the feed per egg produced. The data from two feeding experiments is given below.

What are the independent variable in each of the two experiments?

A

`{:("Experiment 1",,"Experiment 2"),("Maximum daily egg production",,"Maximum daily egg production"):}`

B

`{:("Experiment 1",,"Experiment 2"),("Protein concentration in the feed",,"Total vitamin level in the feed"):}`

C

`{:("Experiment 1",,"Experiment 2"),("Total vitamin level the in the feed",,"Protein concentration in feed"):}`

D

`{:("Experiment 1",,"Experiment 2"),("Cost of feed ration per egg produced",,"Cost of feed ration per egg produced"):}`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Variable used to an experiment can be dependent variables or independent variables. The 'dependent variable' represents the output or effect, or is tested to see if it is the effect. The 'independent variable' represents the inputs or causes, or are tested to see if it is the cause. Here, in experiment 1 protein concentration in the feed is independent variable while in experiment 2, total vitamin level in the feed is independent variable.

Read the following paragraph and answer the questions given below , Stable equilibrium is of various types . Mechanical equilibrium is achieved when all particles are at rest and total potential energy of the system is minimum . At any stage where particles are at rest but the system is not at stable equilibrium as it can reduce its potential energy by reverting to another position, is called metastable equilibrium . Thermal equilibrium is result from the absence of temperature gradients in the system. Chemical equilibrium is obtained when no further reaction occurs between reacting substances, i.e forward and reverse rates of reaction are equal. When steam with solid iron at high temperature Fe_3O_4(s) and hydrogen gas are produced . But the reaction never goes to completion. This is because as the products are formed the reaction proceeds in reverse direction and when rate of reverse reaction is equal to rate of forward reaction , the concentration of reactants and products become constant and equilibrium is reached. When two reactants (A) and (B) are mixed to give products (C) and (D) the concentration quotient (Q) at initial stage of the reaction

The given graph (Fig 15.8) describes the distances of a car from a city P at different times when it is travelling from City P to City Q, which are 350 km apart. Study the graph and answer the following:(i) What information is given on the two axes?(ii) From where and when did the car begin its journey?(iii) How far did the car go in the first hour?(iv) How far did the car go during (i) the 2nd hour? (ii) the 3rd hour?(v) Was the speed same during the first three hours? How do you know it?(vi) Did the car stop for some duration at any place? Justify your answer.(vii) When did the car reach City Q?

The Betatron was the first important machine for producing high energy electrons. The action of the betatron depends on the same fundamental principle as that of the transformer in which an alternating current applied to a primary coil induces an altermating current usually with higher or lower voltage in the secondary coil. In the betatron secondary coil is replaced by a doughnut shaped vacuum chamber.Electron produced in the doughnut from a hot filament, are given a preliminary acceleration by the application of an electric field having potential difference of 20 kV to 70 kV , when an alternating magnetic field is applied parallel to the axis of the tube, two effects are produced (1) an electromotive force is produced in the electron orbit by the changing magnetic flux that gives an additional energy to the electrons (2) a radial force is produced by the action of magnetic field whose direction is perpendicular to the electron velocity. Which keeps the electron moving in a circular path. Conditions are arranged such that the increasing magnetic field keeps the electron in a circular orbit of constant radius. The mathematical relation between the betatron parameters to ensure the above condition is called BETATRON condition. If the orbit radius of the circular path traced by the electron is R , magnetic field is B , speed of the electron is v , mass of the electron is m , charge on the electron is e and phi is the flux within the orbit of radius R . Then answer the following questions based on the above comprehension. What is the tangential force acting on the electron ?
