Confirmation bias "is caused by other people's ideas and opinions about a subject". (Answer D).
It is a common problem and occurs when a person seeks out evidence to support their preconceived opinions or views on a particular topic. This causes the 'bias' in the term 'confirmation bias' as the person is seeking to reinforce their preexisting view, rather than accept a more probable outcome. A classic example would be climate change skeptics seeking out source material that is anti-climate change in spite of overwhelming international consensus over the core aspects of climate change from the global scientific community. A person who seeks out and depends for their opinion on a very small component of the available evidence and chooses to ignore the mainstream literature is someone who has succumbed to confirmation bias.
Answer:
X-linked recessive inheritance
A male with a mutation in a gene on the X chromosome is typically affected with the condition. Because females have two copies of the X chromosome and males have only one X chromosome, X-linked recessive diseases are more common among males than females.
Answer:
2 a) it is less dense than the water
2 b) it is more dense than the water
3 a ping pong ball is hollow and less dense than the water so it quickly bounces up to the surface of the water
Answer: (a) t = 5.44 sec
(b) vf = 53.31 m/s
(c) s = 5.0m
Explanation: from the question, given data
the Height of the tower, h = 145m
from question
(a)
the initial velocity, v₁ = 0 m/s
s = v₁t + 1/2 gt²
-145 m = 0(t) + 1/2 (-9.8t²)
t² = 145/4.9
t² = 29.59
t = 5.44 sec
(b)
the speed of the sphere at the bottom of the tower is
vf² = vi² +2as
vf² = 0 + 2(-9.8 × -145)
vf² = 2842
vf = 53.31 m/s
(c)
when caught, the sphere experiences a deceleration of;
a = -29.0g
the time it would take to decelerate becomes;
vf = vi + at
0 = (53.31) + (-29 ×9.8)t
where t = 53.31 / 284.2
t = 0.1876 sec
∴ the distance travelled during the deceleration becomes;
vf² = vi² + 2as
s = (vf² - vi²) / 2a
s = (0 - 53.31²) / 2×-29×9.8
s = -2841.9561 / -568.4
s = 4.99 ≈ 5.0m
i hope this helps, cheers
F = m . g = 76.5 x 9..8 = 749.7
Net Force = 3225 - 749.7 = 2475.3
F = m.a
2475.3 = 76.5 a
a = 32.35
V = at + v1
V = at + 0
V = 32.35 x 0.15
V = 4.8525
Hope this helps
