The type of logical fallacy that Jonah has used is Hasty generalization. That is option D.

<h3>What is logical fallacy?</h3>

Logical fallacy is defined as those arguments that are based on false logics which may sound convincing but they are false.

Hasty generalisation is defined as the type of fallacy that is being made based on an insufficient evidence about another individual.

From the excerpt given, Jonah is a job seeker for the position of an editor of a school together with other applicants. He said that the other student who wants the position is a horrible writer.

There is no evidence to prove that the student is a bad writer therefore it's a Hasty generalization fallacy.

A car travels due east 14 miles in 18 minutes. Then, the car turns around and returns to its starting point, taking an additiona
N76 [4]

Answer:

(a) The average speed is 0.85 milles/minute

(b) The average velocity is zero

Explanation:

In order to answer part (a) and (b) you have to apply the formulas for average speed and average velocity which are:

<em>-Average speed formula:</em>

v=\frac{d}{t}

where d is the total distance traveled and t is the tota time

Replacing the given values:

v=\frac{14+14}{18+15}\\v=\frac{28}{33} \\v=0.85 milles/minute

Notice that you have to replace the total distance, which is 14 milles for the go plus 14 milles for the return. The same for the total time.

<em>-Average velocity formula:</em>

V = Δx/Δt

Where V is the velocity vector, Δx is the displacement and Δt is the change in time

V= \frac{X2-X1}{t2-t1}

Where X2 is the final position and X1 is the initial position

In this case X1= 0 i and X2=0 i (i is the unit vector in the x direction). So, the displacement is zero.

Therefore, the average velocity is:

V= 0 i [milles/minute]

How many drops of water are in a 1.0 L bottle? (Hint: Start by estimating the diameter of a drop of water.)
o-na [289]

Answer:

N = 2000 drops approx with 1 cm diameter each

Explanation:

Let the diameter of one drop is 1 cm

so volume of one drop is given by

V = \frac{1}{6}\pi d^3

now we have

V = \frac{1}{6}\pi(0.01)^3

V = 0.53 \times 10^{-6} m^3

now in 1L of liquid let say N drops are there

so we have

1L = 10^{-3} m^3

now we have

N = \frac{10^{-3}}{0.53 \times 10^{-6}}

N = 2\times 10^3

so it will have approx 2000 drops in it with diameter 1 cm each drop

A scientist observes rock masses that have moved past each other in opposite horizontal directions. Which feature
Reil [10]

Answer:

C. strike-slip fault

Explanation:

The scientist must have observed a strike- slip fault.

A fault is an evidence of brittle deformation of the crust in the presence of applied stress on earth materials. Here, the earth material is the rock subjected to tension.

Where a fault occurs, there must have been movement between two blocks of rocks. The direction of movement helps us to delineate the fault type.

  • When two blocks moves past each other horizontally, it is a strike-slip fault like rubbing your palms together.
  • When a block moves in the direction of the dip, it forms a dip-slip fault which results in a fault-block mountain characterized by graben and horst systems.

Option A, Plateau is a table landform usually a mountain with flat peak.

Option B is a bowl shaped stratigraphic pattern in which the youngest sequence is at the core of the strata or a fold.

So, the most fitting option is C, a strike-slip fault.

A ball is thrown upward from the top of a building at an angle of 30.0° to the horizontal and with
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Vertical position = 45 +  20 sin (30) t  - 4.9 t^2

 when it hits ground this = 0

               0 = -4.9t^2 + 20 sin (30 ) t + 45

                0 = -4.9t^2 + 10 t +45 = 0     solve for t =4.22 sec

  max height is at  t= - b/2a = 10/9.8 =1.02

     use this value of 't' in the equation to calculate max height = 50.1 m

      it has  4.22 - 1.02 to free fall = 3.2 seconds free fall

           v = at = 9.81 * 3.2 = 31.39 m/s VERTICAL

      it will <u>also</u> still have horizontal velocity =  20 cos 30 = 17.32 m/s

        total velocity will be sqrt ( 31.39^2 + 17.32^2) = 35.85 m/s

Horizontal range = 20 cos 30  * t  =  20 *  cos 30  * 4.22 = 73.1 m
