Behaviorists generally claimed that conditioning occurred without thinking or reasoning ans was simply a result of consequences or reinforcement. Cognitive psychologists demonstrated that thinking and reasoning (cognition) influences the conditioning processes and that many behaviors that are conditioned depend on the type of cognitive reasoning that occurs during conditioning. Therefore, as one is being conditioned to respond to environmental stimuli or is responding to a consequence, they are also pondering and thinking about the process occuring. Cognition is often the reason individuals are not all conditioned in the same manner.
For this problem, we use the conservation of momentum as a solution. Since momentum is mass times velocity, then,
m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v₁' + m₂v₂'
where
v₁ and v₂ are initial velocities of cart A and B, respectively
v₁' and v₂' are final velocities of cart A and B, respectively
m₁ and m₂ are masses of cart A and B, respectively
(7 kg)(0 m/s) + (3 kg)(0 m/s) = (7 kg)(v₁') + (3 kg)(6 m/s)
Solving for v₁',
v₁' = -2.57 m/s
<em>Therefore, the speed of cart A is at 2.57 m/s at the direction opposite of cart B.</em>
Answer:
Explanation:
The speed of the water in the large section of the pipe is not stated
so i will assume 36m/s
(if its not the said speed, input the figure of your speed and you get it right)
Continuity equation is applicable for ideal, incompressible liquids
Q the flux of water that is Av with A the cross section area and v the velocity,
so,
the diameter decreases 86% so
Thus, speed in smaller section is 48.6 m/s
Answer:
To calculate the age of a piece of bone
Explanation:
Carbon 14 is an isotope of carbon that is unstable and decays into Nitrogen 14 by emitting an electron. The decay rate of radioactive material is normally expressed in terms of its "half-life" (the time required by half the radioactive nuclei of a sample to undergo radioactive decay). The nice thing about carbon 14 is that its "half-life" is about 5730 years, which gives a nice reference to measure the age of fossils that are some thousand years old.
Carbon 14 dating is used to determine the age of objects that have been living organisms long ago. They measure how much carbon 14 is left in the object after years of decaying without having exchange with the ambient via respiration, ingestion, absorption, etc. and therefore having renewed the normal amount of carbon 14 that is in the ambient.
A rock is not a living organism, so its age cannot be determined by carbon 14 dating.
