An electron gains energy when powered by solar energy, so the first option of it dropping to a lower electron shell isn't possible. It can however, move out to a higher electron shell. It cannot collide with the nucleus, nor would it remain in its original shell, as it has gained energy.

There are two possible answers:
<span>- it can move out to a higher electron shell
- </span><span> it can stay in its original shell
</span><span>
In fact, sunlight consists of photons. When sunlight hits an electron, the electron can absorbs a photon, so it gains energy: as a result, the electron can move to a higher electron shell, which corresponds to a high energy level in the atom, if the energy given by the photon is at least equal to the energy difference between the two levels. However, if the photon energy is not large enough, the electron will stay in the same shell.</span>

On flat ground, a 70-kg person requires about 300 W of metabolic power to walk at a steady pace of 5.0 km/h (1.4 m/s). Using the
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

C 350W

Explanation:

Given power output to walk on a flat ground to be 300W, h = 0.05x, v = 1.4m/s

m = 70kg and g =9.8m/s².

x = horizontal distance covered

Total energy used = potential energy used in climbing and the energy used in a walking the horizontal distance.

E = mgh + 300t

Where t is the time taken to cover the distance

x = vt and h = 0.05vt

So

E = mg×0.05×vt + 300t

Substituting respective values

E = 70×9.8×0.05×1.4t +300t = 348t

P = E/t = 348W ≈ 350W.

Which group of theorists believe that we should study only what we can directly observe and measure?
mote1985 [20]

Learning Through Observation

Albert Bandura believed that associations and direct reinforcements simply could not account for all learning. "Learning would be exceedingly laborious, not to mention hazardous if people had to rely solely on the effects of their own actions to inform them what to do," he famously wrote in his 1977 book Social Learning Theory.

Instead, he proposed that much of learning takes place through observation. Children observe the actions of those around them, particularly caregivers and siblings, and then imitate these behaviors. In his well-known Bobo doll experiment, Bandura revealed just how easily children could be led to imitate even negative actions. Children who watched a video of an adult beating up a large inflatable doll were then much more likely to copy those same actions when given a chance.

Perhaps most importantly, Bandura noted that learning something does not necessarily result in a change in behavior. Children frequently learning new things through observation, but might not engage in such behaviors themselves until there is actually a need or motivation to utilize the information.
