Answer:

The acceleration due to gravity on zarth = 0.8m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration due to gravity on earth = 9.8m/s^2

We know that time taken(t) by an object to fall a distance (d) is given by

t = \sqrt{ (2d/g)}

We are given the height from which the ball is dropped = 10m and the time taken by the ball to fall = 5.0s

So, substituting the given values

d = height of dropping the ball = 10m, t = 5.0 s

i.e. time taken for fall ,in the equation,

t^2 = 2d/g

g= 20/5^2 = 20/25 = 0.8

Therefore (g) = 0.8m/s^2 which gives the acceleration due to gravity on planet Zarth.

Answer:

0.8 m/s^2

Explanation:

The motion of an object in free fall is a uniformly accelerated motion, so we can analyze it using the following suvat equation:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where, taking downward as positive direction:

s is the vertical displacement

u is the initial velocity

t is the time of flight

g is the acceleration of gravity

For the ball dropped in this problem,

s = 10 m

t = 5.0 s

u = 0

Therefore, solving the equation for g, we find the acceleration due to gravity:

g=\frac{2s}{t^2}=\frac{2(10)}{5^2}=0.8 m/s^2

Bradley gets an x-ray at a radiology clinic that employs its own technologists and radiologists. Would the coder at the clinic r
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Explanation:

If Bradley examination was done and interpreted in the same facility, the radiologist code is used example- procedure code 72100- Radiologic examination, spine, lumbosacral, 2 or 3 views is reported.

if the X-ray was taken by Dr X but Dr X does not read or interpret the image but forward it to the radiologist for initial report, then a 26- modifier is used. E.g A reports by the technologist would be, procedure code 72050-Radiologic examination, spine, cervical, 2 or 3

views or 72050- TC in certain situations and the consulting radiologist would report 72050-26.

if Bradley’s x-ray were sent to an independent radiologist for interpretation, then the procedure code 76140 is used in reporting.

Briefly describe the three intelligences included in Robert Sternberg’s triarchic theory of human intelligence.
pshichka [43]
The triarchic theory of intelligence<span> was formulated by </span>Robert J. Sternberg<span>, a prominent figure in research of human </span>intelligence<span>. The theory by itself was among the first to go against the </span>psychometric<span> approach to intelligence and take a more </span>cognitive approach<span>. The three meta components are also called triarchic components. These are the triarchic theory of human intelligence.
</span>1. Analytical - Analytical Intelligence similar to the standard psychometric definition of intelligence e.g. as measured by Academic problem solving: analogies and puzzles, and corresponds to his earlier componential intelligence. Sternberg considers this reflects how an individual relates to his internal world.

Sternberg believes that Analytical Intelligence (Academic problem-solving skills) is based on the joint operations of metacomponents and performance components and knowledge acquisition components of intelligence

2. Practical - Practical Intelligence: this involves the ability to grasp, understand and deal with everyday tasks. This is the Contextual aspect of intelligence and reflects how the individual relates to the external world about him or her.

<span>Sternberg states that Intelligence is: </span>"Purposive adaptation to, shaping of, and selection of real-world environments relevant to one's life" (Sternberg, 1984, p.271)

3. Creative - Creative Intelligence: this involves insights, synthesis and the ability to react to novel situations and stimuli. This he considers the Experiential aspect of intelligence and reflects how an individual connects the internal world to external reality.

<span>Sternberg </span>considers the Creative facet to consist of the ability which allows people to think creatively and that which allows people to adjust creatively and effectively to new situations.

<span>Sternberg believes that more intelligent individuals will also move from consciously learning in a novel situation to automating the new learning so that they can attend to other tasks.</span>
