<h2><u>Self-serving bias</u> tends to be caused by a desire to protect an individual’s self-esteem. </h2>

Explanation:

Self-serving bias is a conceptual perception where a person attributes oneself for his/her own successes to his/her own efforts, hard work, intelligence etc., but blame others or other situations for any failures.
It acts as a defensive mechanism to protect an individual’s self-esteem.
This makes a person to favor oneself more, attribute only positive events to self, boost self confidence, feel proud about self; at the same time, blaming others or luck or other situations for failures is simply done to protect one’s self-esteem.
This behavior will make a person to move away from one’s responsibilities or cannot accept mistakes or failures and detrimental to one’s personal behavior and relationships as well as any learning outcome.
For eg., a student praising oneself for his/her success in an exam but blaming the teacher or the question paper for failure in another exam .

Which of the following BEST describes a body in equilibrium?

$\textsf {\large{\underline { \underline {SOLUTION:-}}}}$

⇰Let O be the point of observation on the ground OX.

⇰Let A and B be the two positions of the jet.

$\bf➠Then, \angle XOA=60⁰ \: and \: \angle \: XOB=30⁰ \\ \\$

$\bf ➠Draw \: AL \perp \: OX \: and \: BM \perp \: OX \\ \\$

$\bf \:⇰ Let \: AL=BM=h \: meters. \\ \\$

$\bf \: ⇰ \: Speed \: of \: Jet = 720 \: km/hr\\$

$\bf = \huge( \small \: 720 \times \frac{5}{18} \huge) \small \: m / s\\$

$\bf = 200 \: m/s$

$\bf \:➥ Time \: taken \: to \: cover \: the \: distance \: AB=15 \: sec \\ \\$

$\bf➥ Distance \: covered =(speed×time) \\ \\$

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \bf = (200 \times 15)m = 3000m \\ \\$

$\bf \therefore LM=AB=3000m \\ \\$

${ \bf \: ⇰ \: Let \: OL} = x \: \bf m \\ \\$

$\bf➥From \: right \: \triangle OLA, \: we \: have: \\$

$\bf \frac{OL}{AL} =cot \: 60⁰= \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} } \implies \frac{x}{h} = \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} } \\ \\$

$\bf \implies \: x = \frac{h}{ \sqrt{3} } \: \: \: \: \: \: \: ....(1) \\ \\$

$\bf \:➥ From \: right \: \triangle \: OMB,we \: have: \\$

$\bf\frac{OM}{BM} =cot30⁰= \sqrt{3} \\ \\$

$\bf \implies \: \frac{x + 3000}{h} = \sqrt{3} \\ \\$

$\bf[ \boxed{➯OM=OL+LM=OL+AB=(x+3000)m \: and \: BM=h \: m]}$

$\bf \implies \: x + 3000 = \sqrt{3} h \\$

$\bf \implies \: x = ( \sqrt{3} h - 3000) \: \: \: \: \: \: ....(2) \\$

⇰ Equating the value of x from (1) and (2),we get;

$\bf \: \sqrt{3} h - 3000 = \frac{h}{ \sqrt{3} } \\ \\$

$\implies \bf \: 3h - 3000 \sqrt{3} = h \\$

$\bf \implies \: 2h = (3000 \times \sqrt{3} ) = (3000 \times 1.762) \\$

$\bf \implies \: h = (3000 \times 0.866) = 2598 \\ \\$

$\bf \:➥ Hence \: ,the \: required \: height \: is \: \boxed{ \boxed{ \bf2598 \: m.}} \\ \\$
