Answer:

In 1 hour it will cover a distance of 15°

Explanation:

We know that for each rotation earth takes 24 hour

In 24 hour its travels 360° of rotation

We have to find how much we travel in 1 hour in degree

We know that 1 rotation = 360° which is completed in 24 hours

So distance traveled in 1 hour in degree will be = =\frac{360}{24}=15^{\circ}

So in 1 hour it will cover a distance of 15°

Which of the following is TRUE concerning operant conditioning principles?
nignag [31]

<em>Fading also is known as Extinction occurred as Pavlov's dogs were no longer given food, so even if the sound they associated kept ringing, their saliva stopped in the absence of the food after a while. (which initially reinforced the conditioning) </em>

Research on decision making suggests that, compared with a single person, a group is more likely to generate the correct solutio
Sonbull [250]

There are several reasons why group problem-solving and decision making is more likely to produce the correct answer than in an individual setting.

One reason is that groups who act in a cooperative manner tend to do better than individuals, who are in a more competitive atmosphere. Group interaction facilitates collaboration, fresh ideas, and improved solutions.

Another reason why groups tend to do better is that a group has a better collective memory than one person does.

Lastly, a group working together can draw upon each other's strengths and talents, making the group more well-rounded and resource rich.

2 Points<br> Which statement best describes a difference between a democracy and a<br> republic?
Hoochie [10]
In both a republic and a democracy, citizens are empowered to participate in a representational political system. They elect people to represent and protect their interests in how the government functions. Republics and democracies both provide a political system in which citizens are represented by elected officials who are swon to protect their interests.However in a pure democracy, laws are made directly by the voting majority leaving the rights of the minority largely unprotected. And in a
republic, laws are made by representatives chosen the people and must comply with a constitution which specifically protects the rights of the minority from the will of the majority.
