A scientist told his student assistants that he had sorted groups of mice by their intelligence and asked the assistants to assess the groups’ maze-solving abilities. The scientist had not actually sorted the mice by intelligence. The students rated the “highest intelligence” group of mice as the best maze solvers and the “lowest intelligence” group as the worst maze solvers. What was the scientist trying to demonstrate by doing this experiment?
Experimental subjects should never be put into groups.
Mice should not be judged by their intelligence.
Higher intelligence mice are better maze solvers.
People can introduce their own biases into an experiment.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: People can introduce their own biases into an experiment.

Explanation:

The scientist had not actually sorted the mice in terms of intelligence which means that the rats in all the groups possessed the same intelligence on average yet the students after assessment, still corroborated his false narrative by stating that the more intelligent mice were better at solving mazes.

This means that somehow, they must have altered the assessment to fit the narrative of the scientist and they might have done this either consciously or unconsciously. This therefore shows that people will usually introduce their own biases into an experiment in order for it to turn out a certain way.

Explanation:

the shock absorbers in a car act as a big spring with k= 21900 N/m. when a 92.5 kg person gets in, how far does the spring stretch?

Answers

Answer: 0.04139m

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the weight of the man which will be:

Weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity

Weight = mg

Weight = 92.5 × 9.8

Weight = 906.5N

Then, we calculate the force which will be:

F = kx

mg = kx

x = mg/k

x = 906.5/21900

x = 0.04139m.

The spring stretched for 0.04139m.

how do atoms relate to the periodic table?

Answers

Answer:

The organization of electrons in atoms explains not only the shape of the periodic table but also the fact that elements in the same column of the periodic table have similar chemistry. The same concept applies to the other columns of the periodic table.

The properties of an atom relate directly to the number of electrons in various orbitals, and the periodic table is much like a road map among those orbitals such that chemical properties can be deduced by the position of an element on the table.

A stun gun or TASER is designed to put out a few seconds worth of electric pulses that impress a
voltage of about 1200 V across the human body. This results in an average current of approximately 3
mA into a human body. Using these figures, estimate the resistance of the human body.

Answers

Answer:

Resistance = 400000 Ohms

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Voltage = 1200 V

Current = 3 mA = 3/1000 = 0.003 A

To find the resistance;

Voltage = current * resistance

Resistance = 1200/0.003

Resistance = 400000 Ohms

9. How is spring potential energy determined from a force versus position graph?

Answers

Answer: The potential energy associated with a mass attached to a spring depends on how much the spring is stretched or compressed. ... The gravitational force on the mass is −mg (“−” because the force points down). The force is the negative of the slope on the potential energy versus position graph.

Explanation:

:)

By getting the data from the graph of force versus displacement we can calculate the Potential energy of the spring.

What will be the potential energy?

As we know that potential energy is defined as the energy possessed by the body due to its position with respect to other positions.

For an example the potential energy of an object if it is placed at height h will be due to the gravitational acceleration of the earth and is given by  [tex]PE=mgh[/tex]

Similarly, for a spring-mass system, the potential energy will be due to the weight of the mass that will be the force exerted by the mass on the spring so there will be an extension in the spring.

So this extension will be found out by the force and displacement  graph as the position of the mass attached to the spring goes down so the potential energy can be calculated as the

[tex]PE= F\times X[/tex]

[tex]F=mg[/tex]  weight of the mass

X= deflection of the spring

Thus by getting the data from the graph of force versus displacement we can calculate the Potential energy of the spring.

What would be the effect of an increase in greenhouse gas concentration in the atmosphere on Earth's average temperatures?

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Greenhouse gases are those gases that are believed to trap infrared rays close to the earth surface. Infrared radiation is otherwise known as heat rays due its heating effect.

Increase in the concentration of these greenhouse gases will ultimately lead to a gradual increase in the earth's average temperature. This phenomenon is referred to as global warming.

A 4.03 x 10-5 F capacitor stores 5.15 x 10-3 J of energy. What is the voltage across the capacitor?​

Answers

Answer:

V = 0.06255 Volts

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Capacitance = 4.03 * 10^{-5} F

Energy = 5.15 * 10^{-3} J

To find the voltage across the capacitor;

Mathematically, the energy stored in a capacitor is given by the formula;

E = ½cv²

Where;

C is the capacitor

E is the energy stored

v is the voltage.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

5.15 * 10^{-3} = ½ * 4.03 * 10^{-5} * v²

0.00515 = 0.00002015 * v²

V² = 0.00002015/0.00515

V² = 0.003912

Taking the square root of both sides, we have;

V = √0.003912

V = 0.06255 Volts

16 V

Un tubo cilindrico hueco de cobre mide 3 m de longitud tienen un diametro exterior de 4cm y un diametro interior de 2 cm¿cuanto pesa?

Answers

Answer:

 W = 9.93 10² N

Explanation:

To solve this exercise we must use the concept of density

           ρ = m / V

the tabulated density of copper is rho = 8966 kg / m³

let's find the volume of the cylindrical tube

           V = A L

           V = π (R_ext  ² - R_int ²) L

let's calculate

          V = π (4² - 2²) 10⁻⁴  3

          V = 1.13 10⁻²  m³

         m = ρ V

        m = 8966 1.13 10⁻²

        m = 1.01 10² kg

the weight of the tube

        W = mg

         W = 1.01 10² 9.8

         W = 9.93 10² N

A ball experiences forces of 14 N [N] and 9.2 N [W]. A Free Body diagram is required. What is the acceleration of the ball if its mass is 225 g?

Answers

Answer:

First, we can define the North as the positive y-axis, and the East as the positive x-axis.

Here we have two forces:

F₁ = 14N to north

F₂ = 9.2 N to west.

Then the free body diagram will be the one that can be seen below:

Now we want to find the acceleration that the ball experiences if the mass is 225g

Knowing that 1k = 1000g, we can rewrite the mass as:

M = 0.225g

Here we also need to remember the second Newton's law:

F = M*a

Net force equals mass times acceleration.

First, let's find the net force:

F = F₁ + F₂ = 14N*(0, 1) + 9.2N*(-1, 0 )

F = (-9.2N, 14N)

The module of the force is then:

I F I = √( (-9.2N)^2 + (14N)^2) = 16.75 N

Then the acceleration is given by

16.75 N = 0.225kg*a

(16.75 N)/(0.225 kg) = a = 74 m/s^2
