Answer: Extinction

Explanation: Extinction simply means cessation. A condition whereby an action or behavior exhibited by an individual or organism eventually stops. In psychological parlance, extinction is usually attributed to the discontinuance of a certain behavior usually due to non - reinforcement or eventual absence of the conditioned stimulus.

In the scenario above, the point at which Mary stopped sneezing is called extinction which is due to the removal of the cat which is the cause of Mary's sneezing behavior.

Radon-220 is a radioactive gas. It escapes from underground rocks and causes a large part of the natural background radiation in
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer: 134 neutrons are there in the nucleus of Radon-220

Explanation:

Atomic number : It is defined as the number of electrons or number of protons present in a neutral atom.

Thus, number of protons = atomic number = 86

Mass number is the number of the entities present in the nucleus which is the equal to the sum of the number of protons and electrons.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

220 = 86 + Number of neutrons

Number of neutrons = 134

Calculate the electric field at the center of a square
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

E_y=1175510.2\ N.C^{-1}

The Magnitude of electric field is in the upward direction as shown directly towards the charge q_1.

Explanation:

Given:

  • side of a square, a=52.5\ cm
  • charge on one corner of the square, q_1=+45\times 10^{-6}\ C
  • charge on the remaining 3 corners of the square,q_2=q_3=q_4=-27\times 10^{-6}\ C

<u>Distance of the center from each corners</u>=\frac{1}{2} \times diagonals

diagonal=\sqrt{52.5^2+52.5^2}

diagonal=74.25\cm=0.7425\ m

∴Distance of center from corners, b=0.3712\ m

Now, electric field due to charges is given as:

E=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\times \frac{q}{b^2}

<u>For charge q_1 we have the field lines emerging out of the charge since it is positively charged:</u>

E_1=9\times 10^9\times \frac{45\times 10^{-6}}{0.3712^2}

  • E_1=2938775.5\ N.C^{-1}

<u>Force by each of the charges at the remaining corners:</u>

E_2=E_3=E_4=9\times 10^9\times \frac{27\times 10^{-6}}{0.3712^2}

  • E_2=E_3=E_4=1763265.3\ N.C^{-1}

<u> Now, net electric field in the vertical direction:</u>

E_y=E_1-E_4

E_y=1175510.2\ N.C^{-1}

<u>Now, net electric field in the horizontal direction:</u>

E_y=E_2-E_3

E_y=0\ N.C^{-1}

So the Magnitude of electric field is in the upward direction as shown directly towards the charge q_1.

How much water will flow in 30 secs through 200 mm of capillary tube of 1.50 mm in diameter, if the pressure difference across t
Paladinen [302]

The water outflow in 30 secs through 200 mm of the capillary tube is mathematically given as

Qo=1.6 \times 10^{2} \mathrm{~mL}

<h3>What is the water outflow in 30 secs through 200 mm of the capillary tube?</h3>

\begin{aligned}\Delta P &=6660 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{m}^{2} \\\mu &=8.01 \times 10^{-4} \text { Pas } \\t &=30 \mathrm{~s} \\L &=200 \mathrm{~mm}=200 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~m} \\D &=1.5 \mathrm{~mm}=1.5 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~m} \Rightarrow \gamma=\frac{1.5 \times 10^{-3}}{2} \mathrm{~m}\end{aligned}

Generally, the equation for Rate of flow of Liquid is  mathematically given as

\\$$Q=\frac{\pi r^{4} \times \Delta P}{8 \mu L}

$$

Where dP is pressure difference r is the radius

\mu is the viscosity of water

L is the length of the pipe

Q=\frac{\pi \times\left(\frac{1.5 \times 10^{-3}}{2}\right)^{4} \times 6660}{8 \times 8.01 \times 10^{-4} \times 200 \times 10^{-3}}

Q=5.2 \mathrm{~mL} / \mathrm{s}

In $30s the quantity that flows out of the tube

&Qo=5.2 \times 30 \\&Qo=1.6 \times 10^{2} \mathrm{~mL}

In conclusion, the quantity that flows out of the tube

Qo=1.6 \times 10^{2} \mathrm{~mL}
