Metallic Solids02:37

Metallic Solids

20.6K
Metallic solids such as crystals of copper, aluminum, and iron are formed by metal atoms. The structure of metallic crystals is often described as a uniform distribution of atomic nuclei within a “sea” of delocalized electrons. The atoms within such a metallic solid are held together by a unique force known as metallic bonding that gives rise to many useful and varied bulk properties.
All metallic solids exhibit high thermal and electrical conductivity, metallic luster, and malleability....

Structures of Solids02:22

Structures of Solids

17.7K
Solids in which the atoms, ions, or molecules are arranged in a definite repeating pattern are known as crystalline solids. Metals and ionic compounds typically form ordered, crystalline solids. A crystalline solid has a precise melting temperature because each atom or molecule of the same type is held in place with the same forces or energy. Amorphous solids or non-crystalline solids (or, sometimes, glasses) which lack an ordered internal structure and are randomly arranged. Substances that...

Network Covalent Solids02:18

Network Covalent Solids

16.1K
Network covalent solids contain a three-dimensional network of covalently bonded atoms as found in the crystal structures of nonmetals like diamond, graphite, silicon, and some covalent compounds, such as silicon dioxide (sand) and silicon carbide (carborundum, the abrasive on sandpaper). Many minerals have networks of covalent bonds.
To break or to melt a covalent network solid, covalent bonds must be broken. Because covalent bonds are relatively strong, covalent network solids are typically...

Molecular and Ionic Solids02:54

Molecular and Ionic Solids

20.0K
Crystalline solids are divided into four types: molecular, ionic, metallic, and covalent network based on the type of constituent units and their interparticle interactions.
Molecular Solids
Molecular crystalline solids, such as ice, sucrose (table sugar), and iodine, are solids that are composed of neutral molecules as their constituent units. These molecules are held together by weak intermolecular forces such as London dispersion forces, dipole-dipole interactions, or hydrogen bonds, which...

Velocity of an Object01:18

Velocity of an Object

199
Understanding how an object moves along a path requires distinguishing between motion over a time span and motion at a precise moment. A useful example is a vehicle traveling along a straight and level path, where its position at any given time is known. The initial step in analyzing this motion is to measure how far the vehicle travels over a fixed time period. This measurement, called average velocity, is computed by dividing the total change in position by the duration over which the change...

Potential Due to a Polarized Object01:29

Potential Due to a Polarized Object

770
A neutral atom consists of a positively charged nucleus surrounded by a negatively charged electron cloud. When placed in an external electric field, the external electric force pulls the electrons and nucleus apart, opposite to the intrinsic attraction between the nucleus and the electrons. The opposing forces balance each other with a slight shift between the center of masses of the nucleus and the electron cloud, resulting in a polarized atom. On the other hand, a few molecules, like water,...

Area of Science:

  • Cognitive Psychology
  • Experimental Design
  • Neuroscience

Background:

  • Stimulus selection is crucial for experimental rigor in cognitive sciences.
  • Lack of standardized item similarity control hinders reproducibility.
  • Existing databases lack a wide range of similarity levels and large stimulus sets.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel database, the Similar Object and Lure Image Database (SOLID).
  • To provide a unified scale for quantifying and controlling item similarity.
  • To improve experimental control and reproducibility in cognitive research.

Main Methods:

  • Developed SOLID with 201 categories of grayscale objects (approx. 17 exemplars/category).
  • Established a common scale of dissimilarity using spatial-arrangement and pairwise rating methods.
  • Validated dissimilarity scale in a recognition memory task.

Main Results:

  • SOLID contains 3,498 images with a wide range of comparable similarity levels.
  • Increased dissimilarity correlated with improved recognition memory performance.
  • Increased dissimilarity led to decreased response times in memory tasks.

Conclusions:

  • SOLID offers a large, standardized stimulus set for controlling similarity in cognitive experiments.
  • The unified dissimilarity scale enhances experimental control in memory, perception, and attention research.
  • This database facilitates high-level cognitive studies and neuroimaging research.
