Answer:

The reason is to allow the thermometer to respond relatively quickly, and relatively accurately. The glass contains the liquid being used in the thermometer, but if it is too thick, then it will not pass heat as quickly, and it will absorb some of the heat from whatever is being measured.

Jet aircraft maintenance crews are required to wear protective earplugs. Members of a particular crew wear earplugs that reduce

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

So the sound intensity level they would experience without the earplugs is 110.32dB.

Explanation:

Given data

Sound intensity by factor =215

Sound intensity level =87 dB

To find

Sound intensity level they would experience without the earplugs

Solution

First we need to find the new sound intensity level

$I_{n}=215(10^{\frac{87}{10} } )\\I_{n}=1.08*10^{11})$

The dB can be calculated as:

$dB=10log(I_{n})\\$

Substitute the given values

$dB=10log(1.08*10^{11})\\dB=110.32dB$

So the sound intensity level they would experience without the earplugs is 110.32dB.

3- (a) What is the period of rotation of Earth in seconds? (b) What is the angular velocity of Earth? (c) Given that Earth has a

ASHA 777 [7]

Explanation:

a) The Earth makes 1 rotation in 24 hours. In seconds:

24 hr × (3600 s / hr) = 86400 s

b) 1 rotation is 2π radians. So the angular velocity is:

2π rad / 86400 s = 7.27×10⁻⁵ rad/s

c) The earth's linear velocity is the angular velocity times the radius:

40075 km × 7.27×10⁻⁵ rad/s = 2.91 km/s

You are making a telephone out of two aluminum cans and some string. You can choose between two types of string: a 2-m length of

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

C)You should use the thin cooking twine.

Explanation:

A)You can choose either because they are the same length and will produce the same wave speed.

B)You should use the heavy rope.

C)You should use the thin cooking twine.

The speed of wave in a string is given by the following formula:

| $v$ | = $\sqrt{\frac{F_T}{u} }$

Where | $v$ | = speed of wave, $F_T$ = tension in the string, and μ = mass per length of the string.

Even though the two strings have the same length, the μ (mass/length) for the heavy rope will be more than the that of a thin rope. Consequently, the $F_T$ :μ for the thin rope will be higher than that of the heavy rope and as such, gives a bigger | $v$ |.

Therefore, the thin rope should be used in order to get a faster wave speed in the telephone.

The correct option is C.

A projectile lands at the same height from which it was launched. which initial velocity will result

Serhud [2]

The required initial velocity that will result if a projectile lands at the same height from which it was launched is V₀ = V cosθ

First, we must understand that the component of the velocity along the vertical is due to maximum height achieved and expressed as usin θ.

The component of the velocity along the horizontal is due to the range of the object and is expressed as ucosθ.

If the air resistance is ignored, the velocity of the object will be constant throughout the flight and the initial velocity will be equal to the final velocity.

Hence the required initial velocity that will result if a projectile lands at the same height from which it was launched is V₀ = V cosθ
