power is the ability to get someone to do something he or she would not otherwise do” Work-Energy PrincipleThe change in the kinetic energy of an object is equal to the net work done on the object.This fact is referred to as the Work-Energy Principle and is often a very useful tool in mechanics problem solving. It is derivable from conservation of energy and the application of the relationships for work and energy‚ so it is not independent of the conservation laws. It is in fact a specific application

cognitive process This essay will be discussing one particular cognitive process: the memory by evaluating two models‚ which are the Multi store model introduced by Atkinson and Shiffrin in 1968 and the Working memory model by Baddeley and Hitch in 1974. The first model is the multi store model. It was first proposed by Atkinson and Shiffrin in 1968 and is a typical example of the information-processing approach. According to this model‚ memory consists of three types of memory

hockey although we’ve never seen it we can conjure it up by manipulating information in the LTM to create scenarios. Baddely and Hitch 1974 ‘dual task study’ Participants were given digit strings to rehearse whilst at the same time carrying out verbal reasoning tasks. Participants recalled 6 digits on average and performed accurately on verbal reasoning. Baddely and Hitch findings suggest that STM or working memory consists of several different compartments that can work independentely and therefore

information is detected by the sense organs and enters the sensory memory. If attended to‚ this information enters the short-term memory. If rehearsed‚ information from the short-term memory is transferred to the long-term memory. However‚ Baddley and Hitch (1974) proposed that the MSM oversimplified the concept of short-term memory‚ arguing that it was more complex and versatile than a simple unitary system that holds limited amounts of information for short periods of time with relatively little
