Why did the “yielders” conform in Asch’s experiment?

Answer:

Asch's experiment showed that about 75% of people were "yielders" who conformed and 25% were "independent" who didn't conform. Asch concludes that people ignored reality and gave an incorrect answer in order to follow the rest of the group.

Sawyer launches his 180 kg raft on the Mississippi River by pushing on it with a force of 75N. How long must Sawyer push on the

Daniel [21]

Answer: 4.8 s

Explanation:

We have the following data:

$m=180 kg$ the mass of the raft

$F=75 N$ the force applied by Sawyer

$V=2 m/s$ the raft's final speed

$V_{o}=0 m/s$ the raft's initial speed (assuming it starts from rest)

We have to find the time $t$

Well, according to Newton's second law of motion we have:

$F=m.a$ (1)

Where $a$ is the acceleration, which can be expressed as:

$a=\frac{\Delta V}{\Delta t}=\frac{V-V_{o}}{t-t_{o}}$ (2)

Substituting (2) in (1):

$F=m\frac{V-V_{o}}{t-t_{o}}$ (3)

Where $t_{o}=0$

Isolating $t$ from (3):

$t=\frac{m(V-V_{o})}{F}$ (4)

$t=\frac{180 kg(2 m/s-0 m/s)}{75 N}$

Finally:

$t=4.8 s$

What is the speed of a horse in meters per second that runs a distance of 1.2 miles in 2.4 minutes

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Time t=2.4 minutes=2.4×60=144 seconds
distance s=1.2 miles=1.2×1609=1930.8 meters
speed v=s/t=1930.8÷144=[tex] \frac{1930.8}{144} = \frac{160.9}{12} =[/13.408m/s ~nearly]

Steam at 100°C is condensed into a 38.0 g aluminum calorimeter cup containing 280 g of water at 25.0°C. Determine the amount of

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

7.2g

Explanation:

From the expression of latent heat of steam, we have

Heat supplied by steam = Heat gain water + Heat gain by calorimeter

mathematically,

$m_{s}c_{w} \alpha _{w}$ + $m_{s}l$ = $m_{w}c_{w} \alpha _{w}$ + $m_{c}c_{c} \alpha c_{c}$

L=specific latent heat of water(steam)=2268J/g

$c_{w}$ =specific heat capacity=4.2J/gK

$c_{c}$ =specific heat capacity of calorimeter =0.9J/gk

$m_{w}$ =280g

$m_{c}$ =38g

α=change in temperature

$\alpha _{c}$ =(40-25)=15

$\alpha _{w}$ =(40-25)=15

$\alpha _{s}$ =(100-40)=60

Note: the temperature of the calorimeter is the temperature of it content.

From the equation, we can make $m_{s}$ the subject of formula

$m_{s}=\frac{m_{w}c_{w} \alpha +m_{c}c_{c}\alpha}{c_{w}\alpha +l}$

Hence

$m_{s}=\frac{(280*4.2*15) +(38*0.9*15)}{(4.2*60) +2268} \\m_{s}=\frac{18153}{2520}\\ m_{s}=7.2g$

Hence the amount of steam needed is 7.2g
