You are doing an experiment to determine how many passengers would fit into a full-sized plane. If a scale model plane has space

for 87 scaled down passengers, how many would fit into the actual plane?

The real place should theoretically have space for 87 passengers if it is an exact model and doesn't have modifications in the seat numbers.

If the "scales" for the plane model and the people models were the same, then the experiment indicates that the real plane would hold 87 real people.

Earth is about 150 million kilometers from the Sun, and the apparent brightness of the Sun in our sky is about 1300 watts/m2. Us
nalin [4]

Answer:

13 W/m^2

Explanation:

The apparent brightness follows an inverse square law, therefore we can write:

I \propto \frac{1}{r^2}

where I is the apparent brightness and r is the distance from the Sun.

We can also rewrite the law as

\frac{I_2}{I_1}=\frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2} (1)

where in this problem, we have:

I_1 = 1300 W/m^2 apparent brightness at a distance r_1, where

r_1 = 150 million km

We want to estimate the apparent brightness at r_2, where r_2 is ten times r_1, so

r_2 = 10 r_1

Re-arranging eq.(1), we find I_2:

I_2 = \frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}I_1 = \frac{r_1^2}{(10r_1)^2}(1300)=\frac{1}{100}(1300)=13 W/m^2

A person hears a siren as a fire truck approaches and passes by. The frequency varies from 480Hz on approach to 400Hz going away
alekssr [168]

Answer:

31.2 m/s

Explanation:

f_{app} = Frequency of approach = 480 Hz

f_{aw} = Frequency of going away = 400 Hz

V = Speed of sound in air = 343 m/s

v = Speed of truck

Frequency of approach is given as

f_{app} = \frac{Vf}{V - v}                           eq-1

Frequency of moving awayy is given as

f_{aw} = \frac{Vf}{V + v}                          eq-2

Dividing eq-1 by eq-2

\frac{f_{app}}{f_{aw}} = \frac{V + v}{V - v}

\frac{480}{400} = \frac{343 + v}{343 - v}

v = 31.2 m/s

4. Explain how states of matter change in regards to<br> a. Temperature-<br> b. Pressure-
Alina [70]
Temperature can change the state from solid to liquid causing it to melting, liquid to gas causing vaporization or a solid to a gas causing sublimation. Pressure alone cannot change the state of matter.
