Difference between contrition and compunction

Physics
1 answer:
nordsb [41]3 years ago
8 0
<span>Compunction is similar to an obligation; if you are "under compunction," then you are bound by some debt or sentence to do something. Repentance is actually an action rather than a feeling or condition: it is an act of the will which disowns whatever behavior you regret, and to repent implies a determination not to make the same mistake again. Contrition is the expressed emotion of being sorry for something; if you went to a person you had wronged, to make amends and ask their forgiveness, you would be "contrite" toward them. Remorse is simply another word for regret - you feel bad within yourself, either for what you did or for how the consequences affected you.</span>

OLga [1]

Complete question is;

Which action would increase the strength of the electric force between the balloon and the water?

A. Holding a magnet near the stream of water

B. Holding the balloon closer to the stream of water

C. Holding a magnet near the balloon

D. Moving the balloon farther away from the stream of water

Answer:

B. Holding the balloon closer to the stream of water

Explanation:

When we take a charged balloon near water, what happens is that it makes electrons to be pushed away which in turn leaves the area to be positively charged. This area is now attracted to the balloon and thus the strength of the electric force between the balloon and the water is increased.

ivanzaharov [21]

B. initiate an action potential.

Action potentials are initiated when a depolarization reaches a threshold potential. This threshold potential varies, but is normally around 55 or 50 millivolts above the resting potential of the cell, which implies that the input current of sodium ions exceeds the output current of potassium ions.

The carpenter can separate the iron nails from the plastic nails using a magnet. The iron nails have magnetic properties therefore they would be attracted to the magnet living only the plastic nails. This process is known as magnetic separation because it is based on the physical properties of the mixed components separating a mixture of components containing magnetic and non magnetic materials.
