Researchers at a university want to know if higher levels of nitrogen in fertilizer will increase the production of tomatoes per plant. Twenty plants are given normal levels of nitrogen and twenty other plants are given ten percent higher levels throughout the growing season. The plants receive the same levels of sunlight, water and are planted in the same soil on one farm. At the end of the experiment the average number of tomatoes produced is the same for each group. The scientists repeat the experiment on two additional farms further south that season. The researchers conclude that increasing nitrogen levels by 10% in tomatoes is not beneficial. Would this be a well-designed, reliable experiment? Support your decision with at least three reasons.

Answer from: Quest

weight of the box is given as

$w = 112.1 n$

here this is placed on the inclined of angle 42 degree

now this weight will have two components one is along the incline other is perpendicular to it

so here we need to apply a force parallel to incline opposite to its component of weight

so here the component of weight is given as

$w_x = w sin\theta$

here we have

$w = 112.1 n$

$w_x = 112.1 sin42$

$w_x = 75 n$

so it requires 75 n force to move it upwards

Answer from: Quest

All these statements are related to drake's equation. it is a probabilistic equation that shows an aproximate number of civilizations in our galaxy that we can communicate with. all the numbers that are inserted into equation are not precisely known so the result varies from 1000 to 100,000,000. the equations was not created to calculate exact number of extraterrestrial civilizations but to increase scientific knowledge how to find them.the equation is: $n= r_{*} *f_{p}*n_{e}*f_{l}*f_{i}*f_{c}*l$ where: n= represents the number of civilizations in our galaxy that we could in principle communicate with today. $r_{*} =$ the average rate of star formation in our galaxy $f_{p} =$ the fraction of those stars that have planets $n_{e} =$ represents the number of planets in the galaxy that are in principle capable of having surface liquid water and life. $f_{l} =$ essentially represents the probability that life eventually arises on a habitable planet. represents the number of life-bearing planets in the galaxy. $f_{i} =$ epresents the total number of planets on which intelligent beings have evolved and developed a communicating civilization at some time in the galaxy's history. $f_{c} =$ essentially represents the probability that on a planet with life, some organisms will eventually evolve to the point where they can build radio telescopes. $l =$ is a factor that depends on how long civilizations that reach our level of technology are able to survive.
