Let's see your options:

a) prominences are gas eruptions that can form an arch and do not look dark, therefore this statement is false;
<span>b) solar flares</span> are spots hotter than the surrounding, therefore they are brighter than the rest, and they form where prominences start or end on the surface, therefore this statement is true;
c) the number of sunspots may vary following an 11 years cycle, therefore this statement is false;
d) sunspots are colder spots on the surface and have nothing to do with solar winds, therefore this statement is false.

Correct answer choice is:

b) Solar flares are spots hotter than the surrounding, therefore they are brighter than the rest, and they form where prominences start or end on the surface.

Solar flares eject coronal mass, they eject electrons, protons, and ions from the Sun. They<span> produce high energy particles and radiation that are dangerous to living organisms. </span>The earth encompasses a natural protection against these charged particles. Earth's magnetic field and atmosphere protect us from these particles.

A builder drops a brick from a height of 15 m above the ground. The gravitational field strength g is 10 N/ kg. What is the spee
Basile [38]

The speed of the brick dropped by the builder as it hits the ground is 17.32m/s.

Given the data in the question;

Since the brick was initially at rest before it was dropped,

  • Initial Velocity; u = 0
  • Height from which it has dropped; h = 15m
  • Gravitational field strength; g = 10N/kg = 10 \frac{kg.m/s^2}{kg} = 10m/s^2

Final speed of brick as it hits the ground; v =  \ ?

<h3>Velocity</h3>

velocity is simply the same as the speed at which a particle or object moves. It is the rate of change of position of an object or particle with respect to time. As expressed in the Third Equation of Motion:

v^2 = u^2 + 2gh

Where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, h is its height or distance from ground and g is gravitational field strength.

To determine the speed of the brick as it hits the ground, we substitute our giving values into the expression above.

v^2 = u^2 + 2gh\\\\v^2 = 0 + ( 2\ *\ 10m/s^2\ *\ 15m)\\\\v^2 = 300m^2/s^2\\\\v = \sqrt{300m^2/s^2}\\ \\v = 17.32m/s

Therefore, the speed of the brick dropped by the builder as it hits the ground is 17.32m/s.

En la Tierra, una balanza muestra que tu peso es 585 N.
ra1l [238]

Answer:

a) m = 59.63 [kg]

b) Wm = 95.41 [N]

Explanation:

El peso de un cuerpo se define como el producto de la masa por la aceleración gravitacional. DE esta manera tenemos:

W = m*g

Donde:

m = masa [kg]

g = gravedad = 9.81 [m/s^2]

m = W / g

m = 585 / 9.81

m = 59.63 [kg]

Es importante aclarar que la masa se conserva independientemente de la ubicación del cuerpo en el espacio.

Por ende su masa sera la misma en la luna.

El peso en la luna se calcula como Wm y es igual a:

Wm = 59.63 * 1.6 = 95.41 [N]

List the elements of the APA's definition of a psychological disorder. (
Elina [12.6K]

What exactly is a psychological disorder? How is a psychological disorder diagnosed? Defining exactly what constitutes a mental disorder can be tricky and, definitions have changed over time.

The first problem is that psychologists must first decide exactly how to define disorder. How do you determine if there is something psychologically wrong or unhealthy about a person? How do you decide what's normal and what's abnormal?

If you were to define disorder as something that lies outside of the statistical norm, then people who are considered exceptionally talented or gifted in a particular area would be regarded as abnormal. So rather than focus on actions that are considered outside of the normal statistically speaking, psychologists tend to concentrate on the results of those behaviors. Behaviors that are considered maladaptive and cause significant personal distress and interrupt daily functioning are more likely to be labeled as abnormal.

Today many psychologists agree that psychological disorders are characterized by both personal distress and impairment in multiple areas of life.
