Answer:

Both attempt to explain human behavior

Explanation:

Psychology is generally regarded as the science of human behavior. Behaviourism is the psychological theory which holds that behaviour can be fully understood in terms of conditioning, without actually considering thoughts or feelings. The theory holds that psychological disorders can be aptly handled by simply altering the behavioural patterns of the individual. It involves the study of stimulus and responses.

Cognitive psychology attempts to decipher what is going on in people's minds. That is, it looks at the mind as a processor of information. Hence we can define cognitive psychology as the study of the internal mental processes. This according to behaviorists, cannot be studied in measurable terms as in behaviourism (stimulus response approach) even though mental processes are known to influence human behavior significantly.

Hence, both behaviourism and cognitive psychology attempt to study human behavior from different perspectives.

A spy in a speed boat is being chased down a river by government officials in a faster craft. Just as the officials’ boat pulls

babunello [35]

Answer:

They are 7.4m apart.

Explanation:

Here we have a parabolic motion problem. we need the time taken to land so:

$Y=Yo+Vo*t+\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2$

considerating only the movement on Y axis:

$0=4.6-(9.81)*t^2\\t=0.68s$

Because we have a contant velocity motion on X axis:

$xs=vs*t\\xs=17m/s*(0.68s)\\xs=11.6m$

and

$xg=vg*t\\xg=28m/s*(0.68s)\\xg=19m$

the distance between them is given by:

$d=|xg-xs|\\d=7.4m$

A high jumper jumps 2.04 m. If the jumper has a mass of 67 kg, what is his gravitational potential energy at the highest point i

Mariulka [41]

Answer: 1339.5 joules

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy, GPE is the energy possessed by the jumper as he moves against gravity.

Thus, GPE = Mass m x Acceleration due to gravity g x Height h

Since Mass = 67kg

g = 9.8m/s^2

h = 2.04 metres

Thus, GPE = 67kg x 9.8m/s^2 x 2.04m

GPE = 1339.5 joules

Thus, the gravitational potential energy at the highest point is 1339.5 joules

Determine the Mutual Inductance per unit length between two long solenoids, one inside the other, whose radii are r1 and r2 (r2

Triss [41]

Answer:

M' = μ₀n₁n₂πr₂²

Explanation:

Since r₂ < r₁ the mutual inductance M = N₂Ф₂₁/i₁ where N₂ = number of turns of solenoid 2 = n₂l where n₂ = number of turns per unit length of solenoid 2 and l = length of solenoid, Ф₂₁ = flux in solenoid 2 due to magnetic field in solenoid 1 = B₁A₂ where B₁ = magnetic field due to solenoid 1 = μ₀n₁i₁ where μ₀ = permeability of free space, n₁ = number of turns per unit length of solenoid 1 and i₁ = current in solenoid 1. A₂ = area of solenoid 2 = πr₂² where r₂ = radius of solenoid 2.

So, M = N₂Ф₂₁/i₁

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

M = N₂Ф₂₁/i₁

M = N₂B₁A₂/i₁

M = n₂lμ₀n₁i₁πr₂²/i₁

M = lμ₀n₁n₂πr₂²

So, the mutual inductance per unit length is M' = M/l = μ₀n₁n₂πr₂²

M' = μ₀n₁n₂πr₂²

What factor causes atmospheric pressure

bagirrra123 [75]

Atmospheric pressure is caused by the weight of the atmosphere pushing down on itself and on the surface below it.
Pressure is defined as the force acting on an object divided by the area upon witch the force is acting.
