Janessa loves to collect scientific objects. In her collection, she has a magnet and several iron objects that are used to demonstrate center of gravity. When Janessa places her collection on a shelf together, however, the magnet keeps attracting the iron objects, thus knocking them over. She wonders how far away the magnet needs to be placed from the objects so they will no longer fall down. To determine this distance, Janessa performs an experiment in which she fastens her magnet to a table. Then, she holds one of her iron objects 1 cm away from the magnet. She lets go of the object and observes if the object falls down. If the object falls down, she increases the distance an additional centimeter. She repeats these steps until the object no longer falls down once it is released. What is the test variable (independent variable) in Janessa's experiment?
A. the distance between the magnet and the object
B. the force of attraction between the magnet and the object
C. the type of magnet that was used
D. the iron that made up the objects

Steam is generated in a boiler of a cogeneration plant at 10 mpa and 450°c at a steady rate of 5 kg/s. in normal operation, steam expands in a turbine to a pressure of 0.5 mpa and is then routed to the process heater, where it supplies the process heat. steam leaves the process heater as a saturated liquid and is pumped to the boiler pressure. in this mode, no steam passes through a condenser, which operates at 20 kpa. (a) determine the power produced in the turbine and the rate at which process heat is supplied in this mode. (b) determine the power produced in the turbine and the rate of process heat supplied if only 60 percent of the steam is routed to the process heater and the remainder is expanded to the condenser pressure.
