<span>Answer: Burrhus Frederic Skinner's Operant Conditioning.
</span><span>B.F. Skinner believed that to understand behavior, in the best way, is to look at the root causes or reasons of an action and its outcomes.
</span>
Skinner proposes the Law of Effect-Reinforcement. Here,he differentiated the positively reinforced behavior or the strengthened behavior, the negatively reinforced behavior (removal of the unpleasant experience), and weakened behavior because of punishment.
<span>
In positive reinforcement, behavior is strengthened through providing an outcome, an effect that an individual finds rewarding. Negative reinforcement also strengthens behavior because the unpleasant experience was removed. Punishment on the other hand is an opposite to reinforcement. Instead of increasing the response, it eliminates it or weakens it.

a) 32.3 N
The force of gravity (also called weight) on an object is given by
W = mg
where
m is the mass of the object
g is the acceleration of gravity
For the ball in the problem,
m = 3.3 kg
g = 9.8 m/s^2
Substituting, we find the force of gravity on the ball:
b) 48.3 N
The force applied
The ball is kicked with this force, so we can assume that the kick is horizontal.
This means that the applied force and the weight are perpendicular to each other. Therefore, we can find the net force by using Pythagorean's theorem:
And substituting
W = 32.3 N
Fapp = 36 N
We find
c) 
The ball's acceleration can be found by using Newton's second law, which states that
F = ma
where
F is the net force on an object
m is its mass
a is its acceleration
For the ball in this problem,
m = 3.3 kg
F = 48.3 N
Solving the equation for a, we find
Work = (force) x (distance)
The worker does (40N) x (4m) = 160 joules of work.
Friction eats up (27N) x (4m) = 108 joules of that energy,
generating 108 joules of heat.
The remaining (160J - 108J) = 52 joules of energy moves the box.
