• A prejudice is an opinion, prejudgment or attitude about a group or its individual members.  

• A prejudice can be positive, but in our usage refers to a negative attitude.

• Prejudices are often accompanied by ignorance, fear or hatred.  

• Prejudices are formed by a complex psychological process that begins with attachment to a close circle of acquaintances or an "in-group" such as a family.  

• Prejudice is often aimed at "out-groups."

 

• Discrimination is behaviour that treats people unequally because of their group memberships.  

• Discriminatory behaviour, ranging from slights to hate crimes, often begins with negative stereotypes and prejudices.

• A stereotype is defined as a social perception of an individual in terms of group membership or physical attributes.  

• It is a generalization that is made about a group and then attributed to members of that group.  

• Such a generalization may be either positive or negative.  

• For example: women are:

 ○ talented speakers  

 ○ bad drivers.  

Stereotyping is a form of social categorization that affects the behaviour of those who hold the stereotype, and those who are labelled by a stereotype.

Answer:

A stereotype is a belief about a certain group of people. Prejudice is a feeling about a person based on their membership in a group. Both stereotypes and prejudice can be either positive or negative. Discrimination is an action that denies the rights of a person due to their membership in a group.

Answer:

1. Newton’s first law of motion also know as the law of inertia.

2. Newton's First Law states that an object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force. It may be seen as a statement about inertia, that objects will remain in their state of motion unless a force acts to change the motion.

3.inertia is a tendency to do nothing or to remain unchanged.

4. The tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion varies with mass. Mass is that quantity that is solely dependent upon the inertia of an object. The more inertia that an object has, the more mass that it has. A more massive object has a greater tendency to resist changes in its state of motion.

5. According to Newton s Second Law of Motion, also known as the Law of Force and Acceleration, a force upon an object causes it to accelerate according to the formula net force = mass x acceleration. So the acceleration of the object is directly proportional to the force and inversely proportional to the mass.

6. Newton's second law of motion pertains to the behavior of objects for which all existing forces are not balanced. The second law states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables - the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object.

7.the greater force that is applied, the Greater the acceleration.

8. The lesser force that is applied, the less the acceleration.
