How many independent variables does a good investigator use in his or her experiment?

In 1995 a research group led by eric cornell and carl wiemann at the university of colorado successfully cooled rubidium atoms to the 20-200 nk temperature range. assuming (incorrectly) that the rubidium atoms behave liké particles of a classical ideal gas, calculate the rms speed of a rubidium atom at a temperature of 112.0 nk. in the experiments one particular isotope of rubidium was used, rubidium-87. the molar mass of this isotope is 86.91 q/mol. tries 0/20 submit answer

Materials will have different energies associated with the electrons inside them. this is related to how strongly bound they are by their work function. if we sandwich a material with a very low energy between two materials with a high energy, we create a trap for an electron. if this trap is very narrow in one direction in comparison to the others, this is approximately a 1-dimensional box that confines the electron. what is the lowest energy of an electron in the box if the thinnest direction across the materials is 4.81 nm?

Suppose astronomers built a 140-meter telescope. how much greater would its light-collecting area be than that of the 10-meter keck telescope? express your answer using two sign
