Start with basic concept that you have the same amount of watts it's just how far away you are dictates the watts/meter squared (per area). As the distance from the object is increased, the area increases as distance squared (think of a sphere of increasing radius, as you increase the radius, the surface area increases as r^2, double radius, you get 4 times area, triple radius, 9 times area, and so forth). so safe from acoustical effects (reflections off walls, etc) as you increase the distance from a speaker, the sound will decrease by a factor of the distance squared, as before 2x distance =1/4 power, 3x distance =1/9 power. 

<span>so the only thing left out of your questions is what distance from speaker is the level at 10^-6 W/m^2 and what distance is point B from the speaker, and apply the 1/distance^2 principle. </span>

<span>The power at point B (PB) is the following: </span>

<span>power at given power level (we will call this point A or PA). </span>

<span>PB=PA*(DA/DB)^2 </span>

<span>Where PB is power level at PB (in W/m^2) </span>
<span>PA=power at point A or 10^-6 W/m^2 </span>
<span>DA=distance from speaker to point A </span>
<span>DB=distance from speaker to point B. </span>

A doctor pushes the plunger of syringe down and then pulls it up to a draw liquid into a syringe? give reason please help me wit
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

When the doctor has the syringe, it is full of air. So, now after the doctor pushes the plunger, hence the air gets released into the medicine container. After this the doctor then takes the plunger and pull it back. Now , the air gets pulled up back into the syringe, but not only does the air come in but also the medicine because of the pressure build up.

If my answer helped, please mark me as the brainliest!!

Thank You!

A thin double convex glass lens with an index of 1.56 while surrounded by air has a 10 cm focal length. If it is placed under wa
bearhunter [10]

Explanation:

Formula which holds true for a leans with radii R_{1} and R_{2} and index refraction n is given as follows.

          \frac{1}{f} = (n - 1) [\frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}]

Since, the lens is immersed in liquid with index of refraction n_{1}. Therefore, focal length obeys the following.  

            \frac{1}{f_{1}} = \frac{n - n_{1}}{n_{1}} [\frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}]  

             \frac{1}{f(n - 1)} = [\frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}]

and,       \frac{n_{1}}{f(n - n_{1})} = \frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}

or,          f_{1} = \frac{fn_{1}(n - 1)}{(n - n_{1})}

              f_{w} = \frac{10 \times 1.33 \times (1.56 - 1)}{(1.56 - 1.33)}

                          = 32.4 cm

Using thin lens equation, we will find the focal length as follows.

             \frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{s_{o}} + \frac{1}{s_{i}}

Hence, image distance can be calculated as follows.

       \frac{1}{s_{i}} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{s_{o}} = \frac{s_{o} - f}{fs_{o}}

              s_{i} = \frac{fs_{o}}{s_{o} - f}

             s_{i} = \frac{32.4 \times 100}{100 - 32.4}

                       = 47.9 cm

Therefore, we can conclude that the focal length of the lens in water is 47.9 cm.

If the Sun suddenly went dark, we would not know it until its light stopped arriving on Earth. How long would that be, in second
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer: 500 s

Explanation:

Speed v is defined as a relation between the distance d and time t:

v=\frac{d}{t}

Where:

v=3(10)^{8}m/s is the speed of light in vacuum

d=1.5(10)^{11}m is the distance between the Earth and Sun

t is the time it takes to the light to travel the distance d

Isolating t:

t=\frac{d}{v}

t=\frac{1.5(10)^{11}m}{3(10)^{8}m/s}

Finally:

t=500 s
