The intensity of an earthquake wave passing through the earth is measured to be 2.5×106 j/(m2⋅s) at a distance of 43 km from the

source what was its intensity when it passed a point only 1.5 km from the source?

r₁ = distance of the point from the source = 43 km = 43000 m

I₁ = intensity of earthquake wave at distance "r₁" = 2.5 x 10⁶ W/m²

r₂ = distance of the point from the source = 1.5 km = 1500 m

I₂ = intensity of earthquake wave at distance "r₂" = ?

we know that , for a constant power , the intensity of wave is inversely proportional to the distance from the source .

I α 1/r²             where I = intensity of wave , r = distance from source

hence we can write

I₁/I₂ = r₂²/r₁²

inserting the values

(2.5 x 10⁶) /I₂ = (1500/43000)²

I₂ = 2.1 x 10⁹ W/m²

What’s the dependent variable?
Nikolay [14]

Answer: number of bacteria

Explanation:

A easier way. I like to remember it is that x axis = independent and yaxis = dependent variable, but if that doesn’t help think about this

Why would the number of bacteria effect the amount of time. It doesn’t make sense because time goes on forever and nothing can change about it but time can change the number of bacteria because if you had a timer of 30 seconds and the bacteria is for example 10 and if you had a timer of one minute then the number of bacteria change because of time, if you flip it, it doesn’t make sense

based on the law of conservation of energy. how can we reasonably improve a machines ability to do work? A.move the machine to a
natima [27]

The correct answer is

C. reduce the friction between its moving parts


In fact, by reducing the friction between the moving parts of the machine, it is possible to reduce the energy wasted due to this friction; therefore, more input energy is converted into useful work, and this will improve the efficiency of the machine.

At a point 1.2 m out from the hinge, 14.0 N force is exerted at an angle of 27 degrees to the moment arm in a plane which is per
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

\tau = 7.63 Nm

Explanation:

As we know that moment of force is given as

\tau = \vec r \times \vec F

now we have

\vec r = 1.2 m

\vec F = 14 N

now from above formula we have

\tau = r F sin\theta

here we know that

\theta = 27 degree

so we have

\tau = (1.2)(14) sin27

\tau = 7.63 Nm

A 24 liter tank contains ideal helium gas at 27 degrees C anda pressure of 22 atm. How many moles of gas are in the tank?
frozen [14]

Answer:

d)21.5 moles

Explanation:

Given that

L = 24 L

T = 27 °C = 300 K

P = 22 atm

We know that ideal gas equation

P V = n R T

P=Pressure ,V= Volume ,n=Moles ,R=Universal gas constant ,T=Temperature

Now by putting the values

22 x 24 = n x 0.08206 x 300

n= 21.447 moles

n= 21.5 moles

Therefore the number of moles will be 21.5 moles.

The answer is "d".
