Hull (1943) had rats push a lever that required 21 grams of force to budge. After they had learned to push the lever in order to

receive food, he increased the amount of force required to move the lever to 38 grams of force. Which of the following best describes how the rats responded to this new level of required intensity

Years of research have demonstrated that rats are intelligent creatures who experience pain and pleasure, care about one another, are able to read the emotions of others, and would assist other rats, even at their own expense.

<h3>Experiments:</h3>

In trials carried out at Brown University in the 1950s, rats were trained to press a lever for food, but they stopped pressing the lever when they noticed that with each press, a rat in an adjacent cage would scream in pain (after experiencing an electric shock).

Rats were trained to press a lever to lower a block that was hanging from a hoist by electric shocks administered by experimenters. A rat was subsequently hoisted into a harness by the experimenters, and according to their notes, "This animal normally shrieked and wriggled sufficiently while dangling, and if it did not, it was jabbed with a sharp pencil until it exhibited indications of discomfort." Even if it wasn't in danger of receiving a shock, a rat watching the scenario from the floor would pull a lever to lower the hapless rodent to safety.

A fuel pump sends gasoline from a car's fuel tank to the engine at a rate of 5.64 10-2 kg/s. the density of the gasoline is 735
Irina18 [472]
Given:
Gasoline pumping rate, R = 5.64 x 10⁻² kg/s
Density of gasoline, D = 735 kg/m³
Radius of fuel line, r = 3.43 x 10⁻³ m

Calculate the cross sectional area of the fuel line.
A = πr² = π(3.43 x 10⁻³ m)² = 3.6961 x 10⁻⁵ m²

Let v =  speed of pumping the gasoline, m/s
Then the mass flow rate is 
M = AvD = (3.6961 x 10⁻⁵ m²)*(v m/s)*(735 kg/m³) = 0.027166v kg/s

The gasoline pumping rate is given as 5.64 x 10⁻² kg/s, therefore
0.027166v = 0.0564
v = 2.076 m/s

Answer:  2.076 m/s
The gasoline moves through the fuel line at 2.076 m/s.

An object is thrown upward with some velocity. If the object rises 77.5 m above the point of release, (a) how fast was the objec
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

v_o=39\ m/s\\t_m=4\ s

Explanation:

<u>Vertical Launch Upwards</u>

In a vertical launch upwards, an object is launched vertically up from a height H without taking into consideration any kind of friction with the air.

If vo is the initial speed and g is the acceleration of gravity, the maximum height reached by the object is given by:

\displaystyle h_m=H+\frac{v_o^2}{2g}

The object referred to in the question is thrown from a height H=0 and the maximum height is hm=77.5 m.

(a)

To find the initial speed we solve for vo:

\displaystyle v_o=\sqrt{2gh_m}

v_o=\sqrt{2\cdot 9.8\cdot 77.5}

v_o=39\ m/s

(b)

The maximum time or the time taken by the object to reach its highest  point is calculated as follows:

\displaystyle t_m=\frac{v_o}{g}

\displaystyle t_m=\frac{39}{9.8}

t_m=4\ s

A bubble at the bottom of lake rises to surface within 10.0 seconds with an acceleration of 10.0 meters per second. What is the
amm1812
If the bubble travels 10 meters per second and it takes 10 seconds, then just multiply the distance per second by the total seconds to get the total depth.
10 • 10 = 100
The lake is 100 meters deep.

Think of it this way to clarify the answer:
It takes a bubble traveling at a speed of 10 meters per second 10 seconds to travel 100 meters.

An amateur astronomer looks at the moon through a telescope with a 15-cm-diameter objective. What is the minimum separation betw
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

  y = 128.0 km

Explanation:

The minimum separation of two objects is determined by Rayleygh's diffraction criterion, which establishes that two bodies are solved if the first minino of diffraction of one coincides with the central maximum of the second, with this criterion the diffraction equation remains

                       

the diffraction equation for the first minimum is

                       a sin θ = λ

In the case of circular openings, the equation must be solved in polar coordinates, leaving the expression, we use the approximation that the sine of tea is very small.

                    θ =  1.22 λ / d

                   d = 15 cm

to find the distance we can use trigonometry

             tan θ = y / L

             tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = θ

substituting

              y / L = λ / d

              y = L λ /d

let's calculate

              y = 384 10⁸ 500 10⁻⁹ / 0.15

              y = 1.28 10⁵ m

Let's reduce to km

             y = 1.28 10⁵ m (1km / 10³ m)

             y = 128.0 km

the correct answer is 120 km away
