In his psychology class, Professor Adams said that fear of spiders and snakes are common in humans, but fear of automobiles is n

ot. This is true even though far more people are killed by automobiles than by spiders or snakes. According to the professor, the reason for this is that across the 200,000 years that humans have been on the planet, those who feared and avoided poisonous spiders and snakes were more likely to have children and raise them to an age where the children had kids of their own. This example illustrates which perspective of psychology? a. biopsychology b. behavioral c. evolutionary d. developmental

Answer:

Evolutionary

Explanation:

Because our ancestors were afraid of these poisonous spiders and snakes which lead to them to telling their kids of these dangers. Their kids will fear them without even encountering any and this will also be passed on to their future generations.

An object is 30 cm in front of a converging lens with a focal length of 10 cm. Use ray tracing to determine the location of the
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

i). Inverted  

ii). Magnification of the image = -0.5

iii). Real

Explanation:

As shown in the ray diagram attached,

An object AB has been placed in front of converging lens (convex lens) at u = 30 cm.

F (Focus) of the lens is at 10 cm. So F = 10 cm

By analyzing the ray diagram we can measure the distance of the image on the other side of the lens (By counting the small blocks of the graph)

V = 15 cm

Characteristics of the image is:

i) Inverted

ii) Magnification of the image = -\frac{v}{u}=-\frac{15}{30}

= -0.5

ii) Real

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.

Which of the following equations describes Newton’s second law
svp [43]
C.

Newton’s Second Law is F=ma (force is equal to the mass multiplied by acceleration), however, the equation can be rearranged to isolate and calculate mass from force over acceleration. Therefore, m=F/a

A 2. 0 μf and a 4. 0 μf capacitor are connected in series across an 8. 0-v dc source. what is the charge on the 2. 0 μf capacito
Nezavi [6.7K]

voltage across 2.0μf capacitor is 5.32v

Given:

C1=2.0μf

C2=4.0μf

since two capacitors are in series there equivalent capacitance will be

[tex] \frac{1}{c} = \frac{1}{c1} + \frac{1}{c2} [/tex]

c =  \frac{c1 \times c2}{c1 + c2}

=  \frac{2 \times 4}{2 + 4}

=1.33μf

As the capacitance of a capacitor is equal to the ratio of the stored charge to the potential difference across its plates, giving: C = Q/V, thus V = Q/C as Q is constant across all series connected capacitors, therefore the individual voltage drops across each capacitor is determined by its its capacitance value.

Q=CV

given,V=8v

= 1.33 \times 10 {}^{ - 6}  \times 8

= 10.64 \times 10 {}^{ - 6}

charge on 2.0μf capacitor is

\frac{Qeq}{2 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} }

=  \frac{10.64 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} }{2 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} }

=5.32v
