Past experiences and our knowledge help shape our understaing of a situation as well as how to react to it.

Hope this helped.

The statement that external factors such as prior knowledge and experience influence how incoming information is perceived is true.

Our perception depends on the way the brain interprets the stimuli, and past experiences, past events and knowledge has huge impact how we select, organize and interpret information.

An electric field is described by the vector e=yj -xi. what is the electric flux through a rectangular box in the x-z plane that

Varvara68 [4.7K]

The flux of $\vec E = -x\,\vec\imath + y\,\vec\jmath$ is given by the surface integral

$\displaystyle \iint_S \vec E \cdot d\vec\sigma$

where $S$ is the given square region, which we can parameterize by

$\vec s(x, z) = x\,\vec\imath + z\,\vec k$

with $0\le x\le 1$ and $0\le z\le 1$ . The area element is

$d\vec\sigma = \vec n \, dx\,dz$

where $\vec n$ is the normal vector to $S$ . Depending on the orientation of $S$ , this vector could be

$\vec n = \dfrac{\partial\vec s}{\partial x} \times \dfrac{\partial\vec s}{\partial z} = -\vec\jmath$

or $-\vec n = \vec \jmath$ ; either way, the integral reduces to

$\displaystyle \iint_S \vec E \cdot d\,\vec\sigma = \int_0^1 \int_0^1 (-x\,\vec\imath + z\,\vec k) \cdot (\pm\vec\jmath) \, dx\,dz = \boxed{0}$

The wattage marked on a lightbulb is not an inherent property of the bulb but depends on the voltage to which it is connected, u

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

The current that flows through the lamp is 0.5 A.

Explanation:

A lamp functions like a resistor and the real power absorbed by a resistor is given by the product of the voltage drop across it's terminals and the current that flows through it. If we wish to find the current that this lamp draws we should divide the wattage given (60 W) by the voltage drop provided (120 V). We then have:

i = P/V = 60/120 = 0.5 A.

a net force of 1,800 N is applied to a boat causing it to accelerate at 1.5 m/s^2. what is the mass of the boat?

Xelga [282]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 1200 kg</h3>

Explanation:

The mass of an object can be found by using the formula

$m = \frac{f}{a} \\$

f is the force

a is the acceleration

From the question we have

$m = \frac{1800}{1.5} \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you
