question 58

Multiple Choice

Suppose the period T of a pendulum of length L is $T = 2 \pi \sqrt { \frac { L } { g } } \text { where } g \text { is the }$ acceleration due to gravity. A pendulum is moved from the Canal Zone, where $g = 32.01 \text { feet per }$ second per second, to Greenland, where $g = 32.83$ feet per second per second. Because of the change in temperature, the length of the pendulum changes from 2.6 feet to 2.45 feet. Approximate the Change in the period of the pendulum. Round your answer to four decimal places.

• A)5.8508 seconds
• B)-0.0746 second
• C)0.9254 second
• D)7.9254 seconds
• E)-7.1492 seconds

Operant Conditioning

A method of learning that employs rewards and punishments for behavior, fostering the association between certain behaviors and consequences.

Observational Learning

The process of acquiring new behaviors or information by observing and imitating others.

Cognitive Learning

The process of acquiring new knowledge or understanding through thought, experience, and the senses.
