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.

You analyze a sample of a meteorite that landed on Earth and find that 15/16 of a certain type of radioactive atoms have decayed
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

The number of half-lives that have occurred are 4.

Explanation:

Formula used for number of half lives :

a=\frac{a_o}{2^n}

where,

a = amount of reactant left after n-half lives

a_o = Initial amount of the reactant

n = number of half lives

a_o=x

a = x-\frac{15}{16}x=\frac{1}{16}x=a

\frac{1}{16}x=\frac{x}{2^n}

2^n=16=2^4

n = 4

The number of half-lives that have occurred are 4.

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

Given that A 1.0 g plastic bead, with a charge of -6.0 nC, is suspended between the two plates by the force of the electric field between them.

Since it is suspended, it must have been repelled by the bottom negative plate and trying to be attracted to the top plate.

We can therefore conclude that the upper plate, is positively charged

B.) The charge on the positive plate of parallel-plate capacitor is constructed of two horizontal 12.0-cm-diameter circular plates must be less than 6.0 nC
