1 answer:

8 0

Answer- the correct option for the question would be choice number c which tells us about the natural selection process of human species.

Explanation- Evolution of psychology was studied under the given heads namely Behaviorism cognitive functionalism sociocultural Psychodynamic and structuralism.

On studying the facts under these prospects the evolution of psychology gives us the idea of the selection by nature of individuals and the pattern of their behavior shown in different aspects.

An object on a number line moved from x = 15 cm to x = 165 cm and then

olasank [31]

Answer:

v_avg = 2.9 cm/s

Explanation:

The average velocity of the object is the sum of the distance of all its trajectories divided the time:

$v_{avg}=\frac{x_{all}}{t}$

x_all is the total distance traveled by the object. In this case you have that the object traveled in the first trajectory 165cm-15cm = 150cm, and in the second one, 165cm - 25cm = 140cm

Then, x_all = 150cm + 140cm = 290cm

The average velocity is, for t = 100s

$v_{avg}=\frac{290cm}{100s}=2.9\frac{cm}{s}$

hence, the average velocity of the object in the total trajectory traveled is 2.9 cm/s

A 1500-kg car locks its brakes and skids to a stop on a slippery horizontal road, leaving skid marks that are 15 m long. How muc

Harman [31]

Answer:

$E=88200\ J$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of car, $m=1500\ kg$

distance of skidding after the application of brakes, $d=15\ m$

coefficient of kinetic friction, $\mu_k=0.4$

So, the energy dissipated during the skidding of car:

Frictional force:

$f=\mu_k.N$

where N = normal reaction by ground on the car

$f=0.4\ties 1500\times 9.8$

$f=5880\ N$

Now from the work-energy equivalence:

$E=f.d$

$E=5880\times 15$

$E=88200\ J$ is the dissipated energy.

Why does lifting one end of the track lead to constant acceleration?

Rainbow [258]

We put a motion detector at one end of the track and put a cart on the track. ... Next, we put a motorized fan on the cart and let it push the cart down the track. ... This is what I would expect based on the velocity graph, since acceleration equals the slope of the velocity graph, which remainsconstant in time.

The internal shear force V at a certain section of a steel beam is 80 kN, and the moment of inertia is 64,900,000 . Determine th

Luba_88 [7]

Here is the complete question

The internal shear force V at a certain section of a steel beam is 80 kN, and the moment of inertia is 64,900,000 . Determine the horizontal shear stress at point H, which is located L = 20 mm below the centriod

The missing image which is the remaining part of this question is attached in the image below.

Answer:

The horizontal shear stress at point H is $\mathbf{\tau_H \approx 42.604 \ N/mm^2}$

Explanation:

Given that :

The internal shear force V = 80 kN = 80 × 10³ N

The moment of inertia = 64,900,000

The length = 20 mm below the centriod

The horizontal shear stress $\tau$ can be calculated by using the equation:

$\tau = \dfrac{VQ}{Ib}$

where;

Q = moment of area above or below the point H

b = thickness of the beam = 10 mm

From the centroid ;

Q = $Q_1 + Q_{2}$

Q = $A_1y_1 + A_{2}y_{2}$

Q = ( ( 70 × 10) × (55) + ( 210 × 15) (90 + 15/2) ) mm³

Q = ( ( 700) × (55) + ( 3150 ) ( 97.5) ) mm³

Q = ( 38500 + 307125 ) mm³

Q = 345625 mm³

$\tau_H = \dfrac{VQ}{Ib}$

$\tau_H = \dfrac{80*10^3 * 345625}{64900000*10 }$

$\tau_H = \dfrac{2.765*10^{10}}{649000000 }$

$\tau_H = 42.60400616 \ N/mm^2$

$\mathbf{\tau_H \approx 42.604 \ N/mm^2}$

The horizontal shear stress at point H is $\mathbf{\tau_H \approx 42.604 \ N/mm^2}$

A photon is scattered from an initially stationary electron within a metal. How does the frequency of the photon change upon sca

sammy [17]

Answer:

The frequency of the photon decreases upon scattering

Explanation:

Here we note that when a photon is scattered by a charged particle, it is referred to as Compton scattering.

Compton scattering results in a reduction of the energy of the photon and hence an increase in the wavelength (from λ to λ') of the photon known as Compton effect.

Therefore, since the wavelength increases, we have from

λf = λ'f' = c

f = c/λ

Where:

f and f' = The frequency of the motion of the photon before and after the scattering

c = Speed of light (constant)

We have that the frequency, f, is inversely proportional to the wavelength, λ as follows;

f = c/λ

As λ = increases, and c is constant, f decreases, therefore, the frequency of the photon decreases upon scattering.
