Answer:

Approximately 0.0898 W/m².

Explanation:

The intensity of light measures the power that the light delivers per unit area.

The source in this question delivers a constant power of \rm 104.0\; W. If the source here is a point source, that \rm 104.0\; W of power will be spread out evenly over a spherical surface that is centered at the point source. In this case, the radius of the surface will be 9.6 meters.

The surface area of a sphere of radius r is equal to 4\pi r^{2}. For the imaginary 9.6-meter sphere here, the surface area will be:

\rm 4\pi \times (9.6\; m)^{2} \approx 1158.12\; m^{2}.

That \rm 104.0\; W power is spread out evenly over this 9.6-meter sphere. The power delivered per unit area will be:

\displaystyle\rm  \frac{104.0\; W}{1158.12\; m^{2}}\approx 0.0898\; W\cdot m^{-2}.

Is the energy of a wave is calculated by squaring the frequency of the wave?
Misha Larkins [42]
Nope.
Energy is directly proportional to frequency. and when you calculate energy, you multiply frequency with a constant number called "Planck's Constant"

E = hf

Each time the heart beats,what does it do to the blood
Tom [10]
Your blood runs through your blood stream, every vein in your body. without that heartbeat the blood would not make it to the required places it needs to run to and you will lose oxygen and parts of your body and organs will shut down.

<em>Hey mate, here's ur answer</em>

<em>-------------------------------------------------------------</em>

<u><em>Loudness</em></u><em> refers to how a sound seems to a listener, whether it's loud or soft.  </em>

<em>___________________________</em>

<u><em>Intensity </em></u><em> is the sound power per unit area. It is independent of the sensitivity of the human ears.</em>

<em>___________________________</em>

<em>The loudness of a sound relates the intensity of any given sound to the intensity at the threshold of hearing. It is measured in decibels (dB).</em>
