The D.A.R.E. program (“Drug Abuse Resistance Education”) began in 1983. In this program, police officers taught special 45-minut

e lessons in classrooms about the dangers of drugs. However, the program was shown to have very little effect; there was only a small, short-term reduction in tobacco use, but no reduction in alcohol or marijuana use. Long-term rates of teen substance abuse did not change significantly.
In 1998, behavioral scientists began looking for different ways to teach this program. The new D.A.R.E. curriculum is called “keepin’ it REAL,” and students spend most of their time practicing refusal strategies with friends rather than being lectured on the possible effects of drugs. The “REAL” acronym stands for the four main strategies the students practice: Refuse, Explain, Avoid, and Leave. There is also much more emphasis on teaching students how to make safe and responsible decisions in all areas of life.

This approach has been shown to be much more effective. Studies of thousands of students show that those who have been through the program use drugs and alcohol less than students who have not been through the program. Additionally, those who were already abusing substances before beginning the program were more likely to stop using the substances. The effects on students’ antidrug attitudes also lasted much longer.

Based on the excerpt, which statement is true?

Antidrug campaigns have little effect on how much students use drugs.
Lots of students use tobacco, but very few use alcohol or marijuana.
Antidrug campaigns can help prevent substance abuse, but cannot reduce it.
Practicing refusal strategies can help students stay sober.

The distance that a spring will stretch varies directly as the force applied to the spring. A force of 8080 pounds is needed to
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

F₂= 210 pounds

Explanation:

Conceptual analysis

Hooke's law

Hooke's law establishes that the elongation (x) of a spring is directly proportional to the magnitude of force (F) applied to it, provided that said spring is not permanently deformed:

F= K*x   Formula (1)

Where;

F  is the magnitude of the force applied to the spring in Newtons (Pounds)

K is the elastic spring constant, which relates force and elongation. The higher its value, the more work it will cost to stretch the spring. (Pounds/inch)

x the elongation of the spring (inch)

Data

The data given is incorrect because if we apply them the answer would be illogical.

The correct data are as follows:

F₁ =80 pounds

x₁= 8 inches

x₂= 21  inches

Problem development

We replace data in formula 1 to calculate  K :

F₁= K*x₁

K=( F₁) / (x₁)

K=( 80) / (8) = 10 pounds/ inche

We apply The formula 1 to calculate  F₂

F₂= K*x₂

F₂= (10)*(21)

F₂= 210 pounds
