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.

A hot-air balloon is ascending at the rate of 12 m/s and is 80 m above the ground when a package is dropped over the side. (a) H
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

balloon is ascending at the rate of u=12\ m/s

Balloon is at a height of s=80\ m

As the package is dropped from the balloon it must possess the same initial velocity as the balloon

using

v^2-u^2=2as  

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

s=displacement

v^2=12^2+2\times 9.8\times 80

v^2=1712

v=41.37\ m/s

time taken is  given by

v=u+at

substituting values

41.37=-12+9.8\times t

as we consider downward direction as positive

t=\frac{53.37}{9.8}

t=5.44\ s

therefore time taken to reach the bottom is t=5.44 s

Horseshoe bats (genus Rhinolophus) emit sounds from their nostrils, then listen to the frequency of the sound reflected from the
Triss [41]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

This is the step by step explanation to the above question:

v_i = v [ f_L *(v - v_b) - f_s*(v + v_b)] / [f_L * (v - v_b) + f_s*(v +v_b)]

= v * (83.1 * (v-4.3) - 80.7 ( v+4.3))/ [83.1 *(v - 4.3) + 80.7*(v + 4.3)]

v = 344 m/s

vi = 344 * ( 83.1* (344-4.3) - 80.7*(344+4.3) ) / (83.1 *(344 - 4.3) + 80.7*(344 + 4.3))

= 0.74 m/s
