Answer:

negative punishment

Explanation:

Punishment  (positive or negative) decreases the chances that a particular behavioral reoccurs.

Handing a prison sentence to anyone that offends the laws of the state is an example of negative punishment based on available research. This is because, serving a prison sentence makes it more likely that the convict will commit the same crime again.

While many experts in criminal justice have observed that many ex-convicts tend to re-offend, the principles of positive punishment for convicts have been set out by Peter B. Wood in his paper titled "Exploring the Positive Punishment Effect Among Incarcerated Adult Offenders

"; American Journal of Criminal Justice 31(2):8-22; 2007; .

In his submission;

<em> "As the U.S. has pursued a policy of mass imprisonment for nearly  three decades, now boasts the highest incarceration rate in the world and returns  nearly 800,000 ex-convicts into our communities each year, more attention to this  issue is called for-particularly since it could be argued that, for many offenders,  criminal justice punishments promote future offending."</em>

If the divisor is 40 what is the least three digit number that would have a remainder of 4
miss Akunina [59]
1.       <span>Find the least 3 digit dividend that would give a remainder of 4, in where the divisor is 40
=> x + 4 / 40
Since the quotient is not given, it doesn’t matter what the quotient is as long as we have a remainder of 4 when we divide it with 40
=> Let’s try multiplying 40 first to find a 3 digit number
=> 40 x 2 = 80, not the anser
=> 40 x 3 = 120, this is a 3 digit number and the least 3 digit number
Thus the equation and the answer would be
=> 120  + 4 / 40
=> 124 / 40
=> 3 remainder of 4</span>

uncharged particle located in the nucleus; the number of these that an atom has is equal to its mass number minus its atomic num
zzz [600]

The correct answer is Neutron

Explanation:

As shown in the diagram the sub-particles in atoms are electrons, neutrons, and protons. From these, the two types of particles that are in the nucleus or center of the atom are neutrons and protons. Moreover, neutrons differ from protons because these are neutral or are not charged. According to this, the uncharged particles in atoms are neutrons.

Moreover, the number of neutrons can be calculated by subtracting the atomic number (number of protons) to the mass number (number of atoms and protons). For example, if in an atom the mass number is 12 (protons and neutrons)and the atomic number is 6 (number of protons), the neutrons are 6 (12 - 6 = 6). According to this, the correct answer is the neutron.
