JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The cognitive theory of depression states depression results from:

D. maladaptive interpretations of life events.

Explanation:

According to cognitive behavior theory, maladaptive cognitions lead to distorted thoughts and judgments, which would be the root for depression. People can learn such cognitions through observation. For example, they can learn by watching how their own parents cope with stress ineffectively. Another possibility is that people fail to develop coping skills due to lack of experiences that would help with it. Simply put, depressive people have a different way of thinking, of processing what happens to them.

A common method of estimating how far a lightning flash is from you is to count the seconds between the flash and the thunder, a
ella [17]

Answer:

FLASH TO BANG RULE.

Explanation:

The “Flash-To-Bang” theory measures the time from when you see lightning to the time you hear the associated thunder. A measure of 5 seconds from Flash-To-Bang means lightning is one mile (1.6km) away. Ten seconds equals 2 miles (3.2km); 15 seconds equals 3 miles(4.8km).

Light travels faster than sound, so lightning will be seen before hearing it (the thunder is the sound of the lightning strike).

The speed of sound travels at around 340m/s, multiplied by 3 is about 1kilometer. So the number of seconds divided by 3 is how many kilometers away the lightning struck is.

The number of miles away a thunder struck is, can be calculated by dividing the seconds by 5.
