An experiment was done in which human subjects recognize a pattern within a matrix of abstract designs and then select another d

esign that completes that pattern. The results of the experiment were surprising. The lowest expenditure of energy in neurons in the brain was found in those subjects who performed most successfully in the experiments.Which of the following hypotheses best accounts for the findings of the experiment?(A) The neurons of the brain react less when a subject is trying to recognize patterns than when the subject is doing other kinds of reasoning.(B) Those who performed best in the experiment experienced more satisfaction when working with abstract patterns than did those who performed less well.(C) People who are better at abstract pattern recognition have more energy-efficient neural connections.(D) The energy expenditure of the subjects brains increases when a design that completes the initially recognized pattern is determined.(E) The task of completing a given design is more capably performed by athletes, whose energy expenditure is lower when they are at rest.

Answer: the correct answer is (C) People who are better at abstract pattern recognition have more energy-efficient neural connections

Explanation:

The excerpt mentions efficiency when it says the lowest expenditure of energy and it was found in the best performers.

A 25-year old woman burns 300 − 80 t 300-80t cal/hr while walking on her treadmill. Her caloric intake from drinking Gatorade is
seraphim [82]

Answer:

The net decrease in calories after walking 3 hours is 210 cal (if the Gatorade intake is discrete) or 765 cal ( if the Gatorade intake is continuous)

Explanation:

The net decrease N in calories after 3 hours will be

N=Net decrease = Decrease due to walking - Increase because of Gatorade

= 300 - 80*t + 50*t = 300 - 30*t

- if the Gatorade intake is discrete ( 1 gatorade each hour with 30 calories intake , so there is total intake of 30*t at time t) , then for t = 3 hours

Net decrease = 300 cal - 30 cal/hour * 3 hours = 300 cal - 90 cal = 210 cal

Net decrease =  210 cal

- if the Gatorade intake is continuous ( continuously drinking Gatorade during the walk) , then

N = ∫(300 - 30*t) dt =  300*t - 30*t²/2 (integrated between t and t=0)

then for t=3 hours

N = 300*3 - 30*3²/2 = 765 cal

What must the continuous neutral-current rating be for an autotransformer used to create a three-phase, 4-wire distribution syst
o-na [289]

The continuous neutral-current rating be for an autotransformer used to create a three-phase, it must be sufficient to handle the maximum possible neutral unbalanced load. 450.5.

<h3 /><h3>What is meant by autotransformer?</h3>

A grounding autotransformer is used to create a three-phase, 4-wire distribution system from a three-phase, 3-wire ungrounded system.

A three-phase autotransformer is a special type in which common winding is shared by the high voltage and low voltage. Three-phase AC is supplied at primary and output is collected at secondary. Three phase autotransformer is used for such applications where a small voltage is used in the distribution system.

Autotransformers are frequently used in power applications to interconnect systems operating at different voltage classes, for example, 132 kV to 66 kV for transmission. Another application in industry is to adapt machinery built (for example) for 480 V supplies to operate on a 600 V supply.
