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.

Suppose an electrical wire is replaced with one having every linear dimension doubled (i.e., the length and radius have twice th

Flauer [41]

Answer:

The new resistance becomes half of the initial resistance.

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire is given by :

$R=\dfrac{\rho L}{A}$

$\rho$ = resistivity of material

L and A are linear dimension

If the electrical wire is replaced with one having every linear dimension doubled i.e. l' = 2l and r' = 2r

New resistance of wire is given by :

$R'=\dfrac{\rho L'}{A'}$

$R'=\dfrac{\rho (2L)}{\pi (2r)^2}$

$R'=\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{\rho L}{A}$

$R'=\dfrac{1}{2}R$

The new resistance becomes half of the initial resistance. Hence, this is the required solution.

Two oppositely charged but otherwise identical conducting plates of area 2.50 square centimeters are separated by a dielectric 1

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

A). σ = 3.823 x $10^{-5}$ $C^{2}$ /N- $m^{2}$

B). $\sigma ^{'}=2.76\times 10^{-5}$ C/ $m^{2}$

C). $U=10.322$ J

Explanation:

A). We know magnitude of charge per unit area for a conducting plate is given by

$\sigma =k.\varepsilon _{0}.E$

where, E is resultant electric field = 1.2 x $10^{6}$ V/m

$\varepsilon _{0}$ is permittivity of free space = 8.85 x $10^{-12}$ $C^{2}$ /N- $m^{2}$

k is dielectric constant = 3.6

∴ $\sigma =k.\varepsilon _{0}.E$

= 3.6 x 8.85 x $10^{-12}$ x 1.2 x $10^{6}$

= 3.823 x $10^{-5}$ $C^{2}$ /N- $m^{2}$

B).Now we know that the magnitude of charge per unit area on the surface of the dielectric plate is given by

$\sigma ^{'}=\sigma\left ( 1-\frac{1}{k} \right )$

$\sigma ^{'}=3.823\times 10^{-5}\left ( 1-\frac{1}{3.6} \right )$

$\sigma ^{'}=2.76\times 10^{-5}$ C/ $m^{2}$

C).

Area of the plate, A = 2.5 $cm^{2}$

= 2.5 x $10^{-4}$ $m^{2}$

diameter of the plate, d = 1.8 mm

= 1800 m

∴ Total energy stored in the capacitor

$U=\frac{1}{2}k\varepsilon _{0}E^{2}Ad$

$U=\frac{1}{2}\times 3.6\times8.85 \times10^{-12}\times\left ( 1.2\times 10^{6} \right ) ^{2}\times 2.5\times 10^{-4}\times 1800$

$U=10.322$ J

160 students sit in an auditorium listening to a physics lecture. Because they are thinking hard, each is using 125 W of metabol

anastassius [24]

Answer:

minimum power should be used to operate the air conditioner is 4000 W

Explanation:

given data

students n = 160

power p = 125 W

COP = 5.0

to find out

what minimum power should be used

solution

we know the COP formula that is given below

COP = students × power / minimum power

minimum power = n × p / COP

put all value

minimum power = n × p / COP

minimum power = 160 × 125 / 5

minimum power = 4000 W

minimum power should be used to operate the air conditioner is 4000 W

A stone falls from rest from the top of a cliff. A second stone is thrown downward from the same height 2.7 s later with an init

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:4.05 s

Explanation:

Given

First stone is drop from cliff and second stone is thrown with a speed of 52.92 m/s after 2.7 s

Both hit the ground at the same time

Let h be the height of cliff and it reaches after time t

$h=\frac{gt^2}{2}$

For second stone

$h=52.92\times \left ( t-2.7\right )+\frac{g\left ( t-2.7\right )^2}{2}$ ---2

Equating 1 &2 we get

$\frac{gt^2}{2}=52.92\times \left ( t-2.7\right )+\frac{g\left ( t-2.7\right )^2}{2}$

$\frac{g}{2}\left ( t-t+2.7\right )\left ( 2t-2.7\right )-\left ( t-2.7\right )52.92=0$

$13.23\times \left ( 2t-2.7\right )-\left ( t-2.7\right )52.92=0$

$26.46t-35.721-52.92t+142.884=0$

$t=4.05 s$
