Answer:

C.) To indicate different versions of the same variable.

Explanation:

Variables in physics often include a subscript. These subscripts are used for indicating different versions of the same variable in physics.

Basically, subscripts are used to represent the beginning (initial) and ending (final) position or point of a variable in physics.

For example, we would look at Gay Lussac' Law of gases.

Gay Lussac law states that when the volume of an ideal gas is kept constant, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.

Mathematically, Gay Lussac's law is given by;

[tex] PT = K[/tex]

[tex] \frac{P1}{T1} = \frac{P_{2}}{T_{2}}[/tex]

Where;

[tex] T_{1} [/tex] represents the initial temperature.

[tex] T_{2} [/tex] represents the initial temperature.

[tex] P_{1} [/tex] represents the initial pressure.

[tex] P_{2} [/tex] represents the initial pressure.

Note: 1 and 2 are the subscript while T and P are the variables.
