Answer:

External locus of control

Explanation:

External locus of control is an attitude people possess that makes them attribute their failures or successes to factors other than themselves. The opposite of this type of attitude is the Internal locus of control where the individuals take responsibility for the outcomes of their actions whether good or bad. One good thing about the external locus of control is that when the individuals with this characteristic record successes, they attribute it to others and this presents them as people with team spirit. However, when they record failures, they do not want to take the blame, but rather attribute it to others.

Fred exhibits an external locus of control because he attributed his speeding to other factors like the road signs and GPS instead of fully admitting that it was his fault.

Tarzan swings on a 26.2 m long vine initially inclined at an angle of 28° from the vertical. (a) What is his speed at the bottom
Marianna [84]

Answer

given,

length of the swing = 26.2 m

inclined at an angle = 28°

let, the initial height of the Tarzan be h

h = L (1 - cos θ)

a) initial velocity v₁ = 0 m/s

   final velocity of Tarzan = v_f

law of conservation of energy

  PE_i + KE_i = PE_f + KE_f

mgh_i + \dfrac{1}{2}mv_i^2= mgh_f + \dfrac{1}{2}mv_f^2

       mgh_i + 0 = 0 + \dfrac{1}{2}mv_f^2

          mgh_i = \dfrac{1}{2}mv_f^2

             v_f = \sqrt{2gh_i}

                   = \sqrt{2gL(1- cos\theta)}

                   = \sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times 26.2(1- cos 28^0)}

                          = 7.75 m/s

the speed tarzan at the bottom of the swing

v_f = 7.75 m/s

b)initial speed of the  = 3 m/s

mgh_i + \dfrac{1}{2}mv_i^2= mgh_f + \dfrac{1}{2}mv_f^2

       mgh_i + 0 = 0 + \dfrac{1}{2}mv_f^2

          mgh_i+ \dfrac{1}{2}mv_i^2 = \dfrac{1}{2}mv_f^2

          gh_i+ \dfrac{1}{2}v_i^2 = \dfrac{1}{2}v_f^2

             v_f = \sqrt{v_1^2+2gh_i}

             v_f = \sqrt{3^2+2\times 9.8 \times (1- cos 28^0)}

                       v_f= 11.29 m/s

An ocean wave has a wavelength of 10 m and a frequency of 4.0 Hz. What is the velocity of the
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

The velocity of the wave is 40 m/s

Explanation:

The relationship between the velocity of a wave and its frequency and wavelength is given by

v=f \lambda

where

v is the velocity

f is the frequency

\lambda is the wavelength

For the ocean wave in this problem, we have:

\lambda = 10 m (wavelength)

f = 4.0 Hz (frequency)

Therefore, its velocity is

v=(4.0)(10)=40 m/s
