New sound intensity level after the move is

      10 log (1/3²)

   = -20 log (3)

   = -20 (0.4771) =   9.54 dB LOWER than before the move.

Why can gases and liquids both transmit heat by convection?

Firlakuza [10]

Basically, the temperature is a result of the average kinetic energy of all the atoms comprising the solid/liquid/gas. In solid, these atoms can just vibrate in place, leaving them to only be able to conduct and radiate heat. However, as you probably know liquids and solids take the shape of their container because the bonds between atoms are loose enough to allow them to freely move around. Due to each individual atom having its own energy, and these atoms being free to move about the liquid/gas they collide with other atoms in the substance. These collisions result in a transfer of energy. Finally, lower energy atoms "sink" and higher energy atoms "rise" thus creating a "convection current".

A shell of mass m and speed v explodes into two identical fragments. If the shell was moving horizontally (the positive x direct

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The velocity of the other fragment immediately following the explosion is v .

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of original shell , m .

Velocity of shell , + v .

Now , the particle explodes into two half parts , i.e $\dfrac{m}{2}$ .

Since , no eternal force is applied in the particle .

Therefore , its momentum will be conserved .

So , Final momentum = Initial momentum

$mv=\dfrac{mv}{2}+\dfrac{mu}{2}\\\\u=v$

The velocity of the other fragment immediately following the explosion is v .
