Prejudice, as an unreasonable position of a hostile nature. A prejudice person may often present biased statistics to support his beliefs.

Bias as applied to statistics: "Statistics. a systematic as opposed to a random distortion of a statistic as a result of sampling procedure."

Hope that helps :)

Prejudice- not based on reason or actual experience.
Bias- Usually based off of relation/knowledge or favor

That's not true people that have a broken leg use crutches and the constant lifting of their own body weight will help them gain muscle

Which statement correctly describes the relationship between the volume of a gas and its temperature, in Kelvin, assuming pressu

nekit [7.7K]

The relationship is directly proportional; as temperature increases, volume increases in the same way.

Charles's law states that at a constant pressure, the volume of fixed a mass of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature or kelvin temperature.

Mathematically, this law can be written as follows;

$V = kT\\\\where;\\k \ \ is \ a \ constant \\\\T \ is \ kelvin \ temperature\\\\V \ is \ the \ volume \ of \ the \ gas$

This law explains the direct relationship between Volume of the gas and its Kelvin temperature. That is, as Temperature increases, the volume of the gas increases.

Thus, the correct statement is "The relationship is directly proportional; as temperature increases, volume increases in the same way".

A sprinter must average 24.0 mi/h to win a 100-m dash in 9.30 s. What is his wavelength at this speed if his mass is 84.5 kg?

crimeas [40]

Answer:

Wavelength λ = 7.31 × 10^-37 m

Explanation:

From De Broglie's equation;

λ = h/mv

Where;

λ = wavelength in meters

h = plank's constant = 6.626×10^-34 m^2 kg/s

m = mass in kg

v = velocity in m/s

Given;

v = 24 mi/h

Converting to m/s

v = 24mi/h × 0.447 m/s ×1/(mi/h)

v = 10.73m/s

m = 84.5kg

Substituting the values into the equation;

λ = (6.626×10^-34 m^2 kg/s)/(84.5kg × 10.73m/s)

λ = 7.31 × 10^-37 m
