People in todays society have a plethora of uncertainties toward the future. One major concern that commonly appears in the news is inflation. The idea that your dollar today will be worth less than that same dollar tomorrow is frightening to not only consumers, businesses too. Prices continue to rise while wages stagnate causing the wallets of consumers to be under a constant squeeze. Another major uncertainty that we face is the idea of informational wealth. Data that we all create about ourselves online is being bought and sold at increasing rates. Like George Orwell’s “1984”, privacy may become a luxury. Instead of the state having complete observance over your life it is now becoming companies solely focused on generating revenue using your personal data.

Answer:

As it starts swinging, the energy changes from potential energy to kinetic, or moving, energy. The total amount of energy, moving plus stored, stays the same; it only changes form. ...

Answer:a. shows low resistance to extinction; shows high resistance to extinction

Explanation:

According to psychology, extinction occurs when a conditioned response is slowly eliminated or weakned which over time will result to that behavior being extinct. This means a conditioned behavior is completely eliminated

An example is when you whistle to a dog all the time to come and get food and the dog starts to drool all time at the thought of whistling associated with food , if you gradually start to whistle without carrying the food with you the dog will stop salivating or drooling.

In classical conditioning, when a conditioned stimulus is provided without an unconditioned stimulus the conditioned response eventually get extinct.

Jeremy is not resistant towards getting rid of the gambling behaviour because when he start gambling and is no longer getting paid off he immediately stops so when an unconditioned stimulus is taken away , he stops gambling and if this keeps happening gradually his behavior of gambling will be extinct.

Jessica on the other side continues even when the unconditioned stimulus (being paid off )is taken away she still continues to gamble so she is resistance towards stoping her gambling behavior.
