The answer to this question would be Geocentric.

In the earlier day before heliocentric found, many people believe that earth is the core of the galaxy. That means the other planet and the sun are moving around it.  This theory was already proven wrong and the theory is now changed into heliocentric which state the sun is the center of the galaxy.

In a discussion person A is talking 1.2 dB louder than person B, and person C is talking 3.2 dB louder than person A. What is th
liberstina [14]

Answer: 3.84dB

Explanation:

Since person A is talking 1.2dB louder than B, we will have

A = 1.2B... (1)

Similarly, person C is talking 3.2 dB louder than person A, we have

C = 3.2A... (2)

From equation 1, B = A/1.2... (3)

To get the ratio of the sound intensity of person C to the sound intensity of person B, we will divide equation 2 by 3 to give

C/B = 3.2A/{A/1.2}

C/B = 3.2A×1.2/A

C/B = 3.2×1.2

C/B = 3.84dB

A bird sits on top of a 639 m tall tower. If it's gravitational potential energy up there is 2033 J, what is its mass?
iris [78.8K]

The mass of the bird is 0.32 kg.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Gravitational potential energy, the energy exhibited by an object at rest due to the influence of gravitational force. So the increase in distance of object from the surface of earth leads to increase in the gravitational potential energy. Thus,

       \text {Gravitational potential energy}=m \times \text { Acceleration } \times \text { Distance of bird from bottom }

So, as the gravitational potential energy is given as 2033 J and the position of bird placed on the tall tower is 639 m away from the bottom, then the mass (m) of the bird can be found as below.

       m o f \text { bird }=\frac{\text {Gravitational potential energy}}{a \times \text {Distance}}=\frac{2033}{9.8 \times 639}=\frac{2033}{6262.2}

So, finally we get the bird's mass as,

            m of bird = 0.32 kg

4. A cinder block is sitting on a platform 20 m high. It has a mass of 4 kg. The block has energy. Calculate it.
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since the block is at rest in an elevated position, we can assume that it only has potential energy.

U=mgh is the formula for potential energy where U=potential energy, m= mass, g=acceleration due to gravity, and h=height.

Plug in known variables....

U=4kg*9.8m/s^2*20m

U=784 joules of potential energy or letter A.

Yolanda is studying two waves. The first wave has an amplitude of 2 m, and the second has an amplitude of 3 m. Which statement a
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

a) Not Accurate

b) Not Accurate

c) Accurate

d) Accurate

Explanation:

Part a

Not Accurate, because destructive interference would lead to maximum possible magnitude of < 3 m

Part b

Not Accurate, because constructive interference would lead to minimum possible magnitude of > 2 m

Part c

Accurate, because destructive interference would lead to maximum possible magnitude of < 3 m by varying the phase difference between two waves she can achieve the desired results.

Part d  

Accurate, because constructive interference would lead to minimum possible magnitude of > 2 m by varying the phase difference between two waves she can achieve the desired results.
