The drawing shows a hydraulic chamber with a spring (spring constant = 1600 N/m) attached to the input piston and a rock of mass

40.0 kg resting on the output plunger. The piston and plunger are nearly at the same height, and each has a negligible mass. By how much is the spring compressed from its unstrained position?

Answer:

\Delta x=245\ mm

Explanation:

Given:

  • spring constant of the spring attached to the input piston, k=1600\ N.m^{-1}
  • mass subjected to the output plunger, m=40\ kg

<u>Now, the force due to the mass:</u>

F=m.g

F=40\times 9.8

F=392\ N

<u>Compression in Spring:</u>

\Delta x=\frac{F}{k}

\Delta x=\frac{392}{1600}

\Delta x=0.245\ m

or

\Delta x=245\ mm

1 .how did the methods of early structuralists and functionalists differ? name a psychologist that took each approach.
MrMuchimi

Answer

Structural psychology was first described by Tichener. He was student of wilhelm Wundt. Wilhelm wundt was the first person who has established psycholoogical laboratory. In this laboratory structuralist approach of  psychology was used. Structuralism is supposed to be first formal theory in psychology. Structuralism  separated psychology from biology and philosophy into its own discipline.structuralist method suggested that psychology is purely theoretical.

William James was a scientist who has established a laboratory in which Functionalism approach is used. Functionalism was not accepted in America. Functionalism was a reaction to structuralism. William James was not satisfied with structuralism and then he proposed Functionalist method. William James  suggested that psychology should be practical instead of theoretical as was proposed in the structuralist method. He also suggested that the existence of  consciousness and mind has a particular purpose, which should be the focus of the study.
