According to ____, the ability to detect a stimulus depends not only on the intensity of the stimulus but also on other variable

s such as the level of noise in the system and your expectations.

Answer:

Signal detection theory

Explanation:

Signal detection theory states that stimulus ca be detected according to its intensity and a person's psychological and/or physical state. This means that we can notice things according to how strong they are but also, a person's characteristics like experience and physiological state like fatigue can affect the ability to detect them.

Because of this, the answer is that according to signal detection theory, the ability to detect a stimulus depends not only on the intensity of the stimulus but also on other variables such as the level of noise in the system and your expectations.

Traveling with an initial speed of a car accelerates at along a straight road. How long will it take to reach a speed of Also, t
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

A) 30 s, 792 m

B) 10.28 s, 4108.2 m = 4.11 km

Explanation:

A) Traveling with an initial speed of 70 km/h, a car accelerates at 6000km/h^2 along a straight road. How long will it take to reach a speed of 120 km/h? Also, through what distance does the car travel during this time?

Using the equations of motion.

v = u + at

v = final velocity = 120 km/h

u = initial velocity = 70 km/h

a = acceleration = 6000 km/h²

t = ?

120 = 70 + 6000t

6000t = 50

t = (50/6000) = 0.0083333333 hours = 30 seconds.

Using the equations of motion further,

v² = u² + 2ax

where x = horizontal distance covered by the car during this time

120² = 70² + 2×6000×x

12000x = 120² - 70² = 9500

x = (9500/12000) = 0.79167 km = 791.67 m = 792 m

B) At t = 0 bullet A is fired vertically with an initial (muzzle) velocity of 450 m/s. When t = 3 s, bullet B is fired upward with a muzzle velocity of 600 m/s. Determine the time t, after A is fired, as to when bullet B passes bullet A. At what altitude does this occur?

Bullet A is fired upwards with velocity 450 m/s

Bullet B is fired upwards with velocity 600 m/s too

Using the equations of motion, we can obtain a relation for when vertical distance covered by the bullets and time since they were fired.

y = ut + ½at²

For the bullet A

u = initial velocity = 450 m/s

a = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s²

y = 450t - 4.9t² (eqn 1)

For the bullet B, fired 3 seconds later,

u = initial velocity = 600 m/s

a = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s²

t = T

y = 600T - 4.9T²

At the point where the two bullets pass each other, the vertical heights covered are equal

y = y

450t - 4.9t² = 600T - 4.9T²

But, note that, since T starts reading, 3 seconds after t started reading,

T = (t - 3) s

450t - 4.9t² = 600T - 4.9T²

450t - 4.9t² = 600(t-3) - 4.9(t-3)²

450t - 4.9t² = 600t - 1800 - 4.9(t² - 6t + 9)

450t - 4.9t² = 600t - 1800 - 4.9t² + 29.4t - 44.1

600t - 1800 - 4.9t² + 29.4t - 44.1 - 450t + 4.9t² = 0

179.4t - 1844.1 = 0

t = (1844.1/179.4) = 10.28 s

Putting this t into the expression for either of the two y's, we obtain the altitude at which this occurs.

y = 450t - 4.9t²

= (450×10.28) - (4.9×10.28×10.28)

= 4,108.2 m = 4.11 km

Hope this Helps!!!!

A 62 kg bungee jumper jumps from a bridge. She is tied to a bungee cord whose unstretched length is 12 m. She falls a total of 3
Andrew [12]

Answer:

k = 104.46 N/m

Explanation:

Here we can use energy conservation

so we will have

initial gravitational potential energy = final total spring potential energy

as we know that she falls a total distance of 31 m

while the unstretched length of the string is 12 m

so the extension in the string is given as

x = L - L_o

x = 31 - 12 = 19 m

so we have

mgH = \frac{1}{2}kx^2

62(9.81)(31) = \frac{1}{2}k (19^2)

k = 104.46 N/m
