Correct answer: D). Working Memory

The short term memory is the part of the memory system in which the information is stored for 30 seconds. However, it can be increased by rehearsal. Short term memory is also called active memory or the working memory. The working memory is the part of the cognitive system that is responsible for storing information temporarily for processing. It is important for reasoning.

Hence, the correct answer would be option D.

A system contains a perfectly elastic spring, with an unstretched length of 20 cm and a spring constant of 4 N/cm.
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

a) When its length is 23 cm, the elastic potential energy of the spring is

0.18 J

b) When the stretched length doubles, the potential energy increases by a factor of four to 0.72 J

Explanation:

Hi there!

a) The elastic potential energy (EPE) is calculated using the following equation:

EPE = 1/2 · k · x²

Where:

k = spring constant.

x = stretched lenght.

Let´s calculate the elastic potential energy of the spring when it is stretched 3 cm (0.03 m).

First, let´s convert the spring constant units into N/m:

4 N/cm · 100 cm/m = 400 N/m

EPE = 1/2 · 400 N/m · (0.03 m)²

EPE = 0.18 J

When its length is 23 cm, the elastic potential energy of the spring is 0.18 J

b) Now let´s calculate the elastic potential energy when the spring is stretched 0.06 m:

EPE = 1/2 · 400 N/m · (0.06 m)²

EPE = 0.72 J

When the stretched length doubles, the potential energy increases by a factor of four to 0.72 J

A ball is dropped from the top of a cliff. By the time it reaches the ground, all the energy in its gravitational potential ener
Bingel [31]

The ball was dropped from a height 20 meters

Explanation:

The given is

1. A ball is dropped from the top of a cliff

2. By the time it reaches the ground, all the energy in its gravitational

   potential energy store has been transferred into its kinetic energy

   store, that mean K.E = P.E

3. The ball is travelling at 20 m/s when it hits the ground

4. The gravitational field strength is 10 N/kg

We need to find the height that the ball dropped from it

The ball dropped from the top of a cliff means the initial speed is 0

→ K.E = \frac{1}{2}m(v^{2}-v_{0}^{2})

where v is the final speed, v_{0} in the initial speed and m

is the mass

→ v = 20 m/s and v_{0} = 0 m/s

→ K.E = \frac{1}{2}m(20^{2}-0^{2})

→ K.E = \frac{1}{2}m(400)

→ K.E = 200 m joules ⇒ when the ball hits the ground

→ P.E = m g h

where g is the gravitational field strength, m is the mass and h is

the height

→ g = 10 N/kg

→ P.E = m(10)(h)

→ P.E = 10 m h joules

→ P.E = K.E

→ 10 m h = 200 m

Divide both sides by 10 m

→ h = 20 meters

The ball was dropped from a height 20 meters

An alloy is made of a material of specific gravity 7.87 and another material of specific gravity 4.50. The alloy of mass 750g ha
julsineya [31]

Answer:

13.9

Explanation:

Apparent weight is the normal force.  Sum of the forces on the alloy when it is submerged:

∑F = ma

N + B − W = 0

N + ρVg − mg = 0

6.6 + (0.78 × 1000) V (9.8) − (0.750) (9.8) = 0

V = 9.81×10⁻⁵

If x is the volume of the first material, and y is the volume of the second material, then:

x + y = 9.81×10⁻⁵

(7.87×1000) x + (4.50×1000) y = 0.750

Two equations, two variables.  Solve with substitution:

7870 (9.81×10⁻⁵ − y) + 4500 y = 0.750

0.772 − 7870 y + 4500 y = 0.750

0.0222 = 3370 y

y = 6.58×10⁻⁶

x = 9.15×10⁻⁵

The ratio of the volumes is:

x/y = 13.9

Sort the phrases based on whether they represent kinetic energy or potential energy.
alexandr1967 [171]
Kinetic energy:
*the energy of a moving body*
rising water vapor.
the wings of flying hummingbird.
rolling marble.

Potential energy:
*the energy that is stored in a body so that any small change in position or state of the body, will result in this body movement by transforming all this potential energy into kinetic energy*
stone resting.
disconnected battery (the potential energy is what called voltage here)
stretched rubber band.

Hope this helps.
