The significant feature of a Cepheid variable is that there is a relationship between two intrinsic parameters, one of which can

be easily measured, while knowledge of the other parameter is required. These parameters are:

Answer:

Period of brightness variation and luminosity.

Explanation:

The Cepheid variables are used as distance indicators. This requires estimation of periods and (usually) intensity-mean magnitudes in order to establish a period—apparent luminosity relation. It is particularly important for the techniques employed to be as accurate and efficient as possible.

Answer:Habituation is a simple learned behavior in which an animal gradually stops responding to a repeated stimulus.

Imprinting is a specialized form of learning that occurs during a brief period in young animals—e.g., ducks imprinting on their mother.

In classical conditioning, a new stimulus is associated with a pre-existing response through repeated pairing of new and previously known stimuli.

In operant conditioning, an animal learns to perform a behavior more or less frequently through a reward or punishment that follows the behavior.

Some animals, especially primates, are capable of more complex forms of learning, such as problem-solving and the construction of mental maps.

Introduction

If you own a dog—or have a friend who owns a dog—you probably know that dogs can be trained to do things like sit, beg, roll over, and play dead. These are examples of learned behaviors, and dogs can be capable of significant learning. By some estimates, a very clever dog has cognitive abilities on par with a two-and-a-half-year-old human!

calculate the force required to take away a flat corcular plate of radius 0.01m from the surface of water. the surface tention o
leonid [27]

Answer:

Force = 0.0047175\ N

Explanation:

Given

T = 0.075N/m --- Surface Tension

r = 0.01m --- Radius

Required

Determine the required force

First, we calculate the circumference (C) of the circular plate

C= 2\pi r

C= 2 * \frac{22}{7} * 0.01m

C= \frac{2 * 22 * 0.01}{7}m

C= \frac{0.44}{7}m

C= 0.0629 m

The applied force is then calculated using;

Force = C * T

Force = 0.0629m * 0.075N/m

Force = 0.0047175\ N

A sample of ore containing radioactive strontium 38Sr90 has an activity of 8.2 × 105 Bq. The atomic mass of strontium is 89.908
ahrayia [7]

From the activity values and the decay constant, the mass of of Strontium in the sample is:

1.62 × 10^{-7}g

<h3>What is the decay constant of an element?</h3>

The decay constant of an element is the probability of decay of a nucleus per unit time.

{λ = ln 2 / t1/2 

where;

t1/2 is the half-life of the isotope.

The half-life is converted to seconds since the decay constant is asked in per seconds.

28.8 years = 28.8 × 3.156 × 10^{7} = 908928000 s \\

Hence;

λ = \frac{ln2}{90892800s} = 7.626 s^{-1}

                                       

The activity of the element, A, the decay constant, λ and the number of nuclei, N are related as follows:

  • A = (–) λN

N = \frac{8.25 ×10^{5}}{7.626×10^{-10}} = 1.082 × 10^{15}              

Molar mass of Strontium-90 is 90 g.

1 mole of Strontium-90 contains 6.02×10^23 nuclei.

The mass, m of Strontium in the sample is calculated:

m = 1.082 × 10^{15} × \frac{90 g}{6.02 × 10^{23}} = 1.62 × 10^{-7}g \\

Therefore, the mass of of Strontium in the sample is:

1.62 × 10^{-7} \: g
