Who is the founder of operant conditioning?

1 answer:

7 0

Operant conditioning, sometimes called <em>instrumental learning</em>, was first extensively studied by Edward L. Thorndike, who observed the behavior of cats trying to escape from home-made puzzle boxes.

Hope this helps!

Rank these electromagnetic waves on the basisof their speed (in vacuum). Rank from fastest to slowest. To rank items as equivale

adelina 88 [10]

Answer: On the basis of speed they are all equivalent.

Yellow light = Fm radio wave = Green light = X-ray = AM radio wave = Infrared wave

Explanation:

Yellow light, Fm radio wave, Green light ,X-ray, AM radio wave and Infrared wave are all electromagnetic waves, and all electromagnetic waves move at the same vacuum speed which is the speed of light and is approximately 3.0x10^8 m/s.

They only differ in wavelength and frequency

c = λf

c (speed of light) = λ (wavelength) x f (frequency)

Therefore; on the basis of speed they are all equivalent.

Yellow light = Fm radio wave = Green light = X-ray = AM radio wave = Infrared wave

It is 5.00 km from your home to the physics lab. As part of your physical fitness program, you could run that distance at 10.0 k

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

a. Walking burns up more energy.

b. 1740 kJ

c. This is because more intense exercise releases a lot of energy in a short period of time, whereas, less intense energy releases it energy gradually over a long period of time.

Explanation:

a. We know energy W = Pt where P = power and t = time.

Now for walking, t = d/v where d = distance = 5.00 km and v = speed = 3.00 km/hr and P = 290 W

So, t = d/v = 5.00 km/3.00 km/hr = 5/3 hr = 5/3 × 3600 s = 6000 s

W = Pt = 290 W × 6000 s = 1740000 = 1740 kJ

Now for running, t = d/v where d = distance = 5.00 km and v = speed = 10.00 km/hr

So, t = d/v = 5.00 km/10.00 km/hr = 0.5 hr = 0.5 × 3600 s = 1800 s and P = 700 W

W = Pt = 700 W × 1800 s = 1260000 = 1260 kJ

Since walking burns up 1740 kJ and running burns up 1260 kJ, walking burns up more energy.

b. It burns up 1740 kJ

c. This is because more intense exercise releases a lot of energy in a short period of time, whereas, less intense energy releases it energy gradually over a long period of time.

1 point<br> You throw a ball up in the air with a velocity of 30 m/s. How high does it<br> go?

choli [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

2as=vf^2-Vi^2

vf=30 m/s

vi= 0 m/s

a=g=9.8 m/s^2

s=vf^2-Vi^2/2a

s=(30)²-(0)²/2*9.8
