Answer:
a) 10 dB, b) 20dB, c) 10², 10⁴, 10⁸
Explanation:
The logarithmic scale has a great advantage when measuring magnitudes of a large number of scales, since it converts these values to linear, allowing easier viewing.
Part A
Let's look for decibels for an intensity I = 10 Io
We calculate
β = 10 log (10Io / Io)
β = 10 dB
Part b
Let's find the intensity for I = 100 Io
We calculate
β = 10 log (100Io / Io)
β = 10 log 100
β = 10 2
β = 20 db
Part c
Δβ2 corresponds to an intensity change of 10² Io, therefore it corresponds to an intensity increase of 10²
Δβ4 corresponds to a change in intensity of 10⁴Io
Δβ8 is an intensity change of 10⁸ Io
Answer:
Distance of Alpha century in miles
Distance of Alpha century in Astronomical unit
Explanation:
Given
Distance of Alpha Centauri from the Solar System light year
Light year is the distance traveled by light in one year. Its a unit of measurement for distant celestial objects
One light year miles
Total number of miles in light years is equal to
Distance of Alpha century in miles
Number of astronomical units in one light year
Total number of astronomical units in light years is equal to
Distance of Alpha century in Astronomical unit

As solar wind approaches Earth, what happens to the charged electrons?
They are deflected as Earth’s magnetic field exerts force on them.
Which best describes how energy transferred from an electron in the solar wind compares with energy absorbed by an electron in the oxygen atom?
equal to
Which statement is accurate about how the aurora borealis is formed?
When the electrons fall to a lower energy state, they release energy as electromagnetic radiation, light.
How does the energy in the light of the aurora borealis compare to the energy as an excited electron returns to its original energy level?
equal to
During the formation of the aurora borealis, the electrons in an atom experience a change in energy levels. Which statement about this change is accurate?
First, the electron absorbs energy to move to a higher energy level.
Because tropical moist forests are used for agricultural, the thin soil cannot support continuous cropping, while deciduous forests can regrow quickly.
