A pendulum consists of a mass M hanging at the bottom end of a massless rod of length which has a frictionless pivot at its top end. A mass m, moving as shown in Fig. 735 with velocity v, impacts M and becomes embedded. What is the smallest value of v sufficient to cause the pendulum (with embedded m

A test-developer defines uniform testing procedures and meaningful scores by comparison with the performance of a pretested group. Which of the following best describes this process? a. Reliability testing b. Validation c. Content validation d. Standardization e. Predictive validity

Campbell Biology: Concepts & Connections 7
Neurons communicate at synapses. The transmission of signals between neurons or between neurons and effector cells occurs at junctions called synapses. At electrical synapses, electrical signals pass directly between cells. At chemical synapses, the sending (presynaptic) cell secretes a chemical sign

A number of amusement parks have rides that make vertical loops like the one shown in Figure 6.33. For safety, the cars are attached to the rails in such a way that they cannot fall off. If the car goes over the top at just the right speed, gravity alone will supply the centripetal force. What other

In a local bar, a customer slides an empty beer mug down the counter for a refill. The height of the counter is h. The mug slides off the counter and strikes the floor at distance d from the base of the counter. (a) With what velocity did the mug leave the counter? (b) What was the direction of

Essentials of Abnormal Psychology 8
Which of the following statements is true of cognitivebehavioral therapy (CBT) and interpersonal therapy (IPT) in the treatment of bulimia? a. CBT appears to work faster than IPT, but they both seem to have the same positive effect at a one-year follow-up. b. CBT and IPT appear to have the same impac

Mutations in the genes for clotting factor VIII and IX cause hemophilia A and B, respectively. A woman may be heterozygous for mutations in both genes, with a mutated factor VIII allele on one X chromosome, and a mutated factor IX allele on the other. All of her sons should have either hemophilia A o
