8. What’s the influence of bias in forensic science

Physics
1 answer:
USPshnik [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Confirmation bias, described in 1998 [3] as “seeking or interpreting evidence in ways that are partial to existing beliefs, expectations, or a hypothesis in hand,” is one type of cognitive bias with the potential to undermine the objective evaluation of forensic evidence.

How is the force of gravity mathematically related to the factors<br> that answer Question I?
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Probably the more correct version of the story is that Newton, upon observing an apple fall from a tree, began to think along the following lines: The apple is accelerated, since its velocity changes from zero as it is hanging on the tree and moves toward the ground. Thus, by Newton's 2nd Law there must be a force that acts on the apple to cause this acceleration. Let's call this force "gravity", and the associated acceleration the "acceleration due to gravity". Then imagine the apple tree is twice as high. Again, we expect the apple to be accelerated toward the ground, so this suggests that this force that we call gravity reaches to the top of the tallest apple tree.

A 30,000-kg freight car is coasting at 0.850 m/s with negligible friction under a hopper that dumps 110,000 kg of scrap metal in
erica [24]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a freight car, m_1=30,000-kg

Speed of a freight car, u_1=0.85\ m/s

Mass of a scrap metal, m_2=110,000\ kg

(a) Let us assume that the final velocity of the loaded freight car is V. The momentum of the system will remain conserved as follows :

30000\times 0.85=(30000+110000)V\\\\V=\dfrac{30000\times 0.85}{30000+110000}\\\\=0.182\ m/s

So, the final velocity of the loaded freight car is 0.182 m/s.

(b) Lost on kinetic energy = final kinetic energy - initial kinetic energy

\Delta K=\dfrac{1}{2}[(m_1+m_2)V^2-m_1u_1^2)]\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}\times [(30,000+110,000 )0.182^2-30000(0.85)^2]\\\\=-8518.82\ J

Lost in kinetic energy is 8518.82. Negative sign shows loss.
