Answer:

The spring will stretch 1.05 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount a spring will stretch varies directly with the amount of weight attached to the spring.

Let the spring stretches x inches when 40 pound is attached.

we get the following relation;

\frac{2.1}{80} =\frac{x}{40}

=> 80x=2.1\times40

=> 80x=84

x = 1.05 inches

Hence, the spring will stretch 1.05 inches.

Plutonium–238 has a yearly decay constant of 7.9 × 10-3. If an original sample has a mass of 15 grams, how long will it take to
eduard
The answer is 28 years

At = A0 * e^(-k * t)
At = 12 g
A0 = 15 g
k = 7.9 × 10^-3 = 0.0079 
t = ?

12 = 15 * e^(-0.0079 * t)
12/15 = e^(-0.0079 * t)
0.8 = e^(-0.0079 * t)

Logarithm both sides (because ln(e) = 1:
ln(0.8) = ln(e^(-0.0079 * t))
ln(0.8) = (-0.0079 * t) * ln(e)
-0.223 = -0.0079 * t
t = -0.223 / -0.0079
t = 28.23
t ≈ 28 years

Explain the reliability with suitable examples.
ryzh [129]
The term reliability in psychological research refers to the consistency of a research study or measuring test. For example, if a person weighs themselves during the course of a day they would expect to see a similar reading. Scales which measured weight differently each time would be of little use.
