What exactly is a psychological disorder? How is a psychological disorder diagnosed? Defining exactly what constitutes a mental disorder can be tricky and, definitions have changed over time. The
first problem is that psychologists must first decide exactly how to
define disorder. How do you determine if there is something
psychologically wrong or unhealthy about a person? How do you decide
what's normal and what's abnormal? If you were to define disorder
as something that lies outside of the statistical norm, then people who
are considered exceptionally talented or gifted in a particular area
would be regarded as abnormal. So rather than focus on actions that are
considered outside of the normal statistically speaking, psychologists
tend to concentrate on the results of those behaviors. Behaviors that
are considered maladaptive and cause significant personal distress and
interrupt daily functioning are more likely to be labeled as abnormal.
Today
many psychologists agree that psychological disorders are characterized
by both personal distress and impairment in multiple areas of life.
Answer:
Because cosmic disaster are so vast, astronomers use light-years as their unit of distance. One light-year is defined as <u>the distance a beam of light travels in one year</u>. The nearest star is a little more than <u>4.37 light-years</u> away from us. When we see light from a galaxy 2 million light-years away, it has taken<u> 2 million Earth years</u> to reach us. Light from the Sun takes <u>approximately 8.4269 minutes</u> to reach us
Explanation:
i) One light-year is defined as the distance a light beam travels in a time of one Earth year. One light year is equivalent to 6 × 10¹² miles or 9.7 × 10¹² km
ii) The distance to the nearest star = 4.37 light-years
iii) When a star located in a galaxy that is 2.3 million light years away is seen, it has taken 2.3 million light years to reach us
iv) The distance of the Sun to the Earth = 151.58 million kilometers
The speed of light, c = 299792.458 km/s
The time it will take light to reach us from the Sun, 't', is given as follows;
t = 151.58 × 10⁶ km/(299792.458 km/s) ≈ 8.4269 minutes.

And i think this should be under Chemistry, not Physics. Have a nice day :)
Perspective is the evaluation or analysis of something, the way we think.
perception is a way of interpreting and understanding something.
Work is the result when force ( F ) acts on object ( here: desk ) and moves it by some distance ( d ).
The formula is: W = F * d
Work = Force * Distance
We have : F = 20 N, d = 10 m
W= 20 N * 10 m = 200 J
Answer: The amount of work is 200 Joules.
