A student conducts an experiment to determine how the temperature of water affects the time for sugar to dissolve. In each trial, the student uses a different amount of water and a different temperature of water.
What is wrong with this experimental design?

The fact that the student used different amount of water (another independent variable) is wrong with the experimental design

WHAT ARE THE COMPONENTS OF AN EXPERIMENT?

In the experiment conducted by the student in this question, two independent variables were used i.e. the different amount of water and the different temperatures. This is what is wrong about the experimental design.

first let us lay out the formula for potential

and kinetic energy:

pe = mgh

ke = (mv^2)/2

where: m=mass, v=velocity, g=gravitational

acceleration, h=height

calculating for mass using the known values of

pe:

340j = m (9.81 m/s^2) (50ft) (1m/3.28ft)

m = 2.27 kg

the law of conservation of energy states that

energy is neither created nor destroyed. therefore, the change in kinetic

energy from 50 ft to 35 ft would be equal to the change in potential energy

from 50 ft to 35 ft. however it would be opposite in signs since one is losing

while other is gaining.

ke(35ft) – ke(50ft) = - [ pe(35ft) – pe(50ft]

ke(50ft) = 0 since the brick is initially at rest

ke(35ft) = 340j - 2.27kg (9.81 m/s^2) (35ft)

(1m/3.28 ft)

ke(35ft)

= 102.38 j
