Answer:

So that the researchers know how much of the result is a trick of your mind and how much of the result is real.

Explanation:

So first, in order to answer this question we need to know what a placebo is.

Placebo: any treatment that has no active properties, like a sugar pill.

Now we ask ourselves, how could a placebo be something of interest in human studies?

Our brains are amazing things and can connivence themselves many things. Hints the phrase "placebo effect" that is very common in the medical field.

The placebo effect (a positive effect produced by a placebo drug or treatment, which cannot be attributed to the properties of the placebo itself, and must therefore be due to the patient's belief in that treatment) is a really good example as to why they are useful in human studies.

How else could you know was a true effect or just something someone believed would happen anyway?

Placebos are an important part of clinical studies as they provide researchers with a comparison point for new therapies, so they can prove they are safe and effective. They can provide them with the evidence required to apply to regulatory bodies for approval of a new drug.

Light of wavelength 600 nm passes though two slits separated by 0.22mm and is observed on a screen 1.1m behind the slits. The lo

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

$y(m=1)=\frac{(1)(600*10^{-9}m)(1.1m)}{0.22m}=3*10^{-6}m\\\\y(m=1)=\frac{(-1)(600*10^{-9}m)(1.1m)}{0.22m}=-3*10^{-6}m$

Explanation:

We have to take into account the expression for the position of the fringes

$dsen\theta=m\lambda\\y=\frac{m\lambda D}{d}$

where m is the number of the maximum, d is the separation of the slits, D is the distance to the screen.

(a) By replacing we obtain

$y(m=1)=\frac{(1)(600*10^{-9}m)(1.1m)}{0.22m}=3*10^{-6}m\\\\y(m=1)=\frac{(-1)(600*10^{-9}m)(1.1m)}{0.22m}=-3*10^{-6}m$

(b) more information is required to solve this point. Please complete the information.

Answer:

As the skydiver falls to the Earth, she experiences positive acceleration only due to gravity.

Explanation:

As the skydiver falls to the Earth, she experiences friction in the form of air resistance which tries to slow her down and is proportional to the her velocity. So it cannot have a positive acceleration as it acts in opposite direction to slow her down.

Inertia during skydiving is experienced when we open an parachute, the parachute slows down the speed of are descent hence changing our inertia of motion with a velocity.

Only the Earth's, gravitational field has an positive acceleration as it pulls us towards the Earth, hence increasing our velocity.
