Answer:

option (b)

Explanation:

According to the inverse square law,

Brightness \alpha \frac{1}{distance^{2}}

As the distance is doubles, the brightness becomes one fourth.

It means the brightness decreases by a factor of 4.

Option (b)

Answer:

a. decrease by a factor of 3.

Explanation:

The intensity of light is inversely proportional to the square of distance.

I ∝1/d^2

or

I= k/d^2

where k is a constant

so, if d becomes 2d , I will be come I/4

Therefore, intensity will a. decrease by a factor of 3.

camera was able to deliver 1.3 frames per second for this photo, and that the car has a length of approximately 5.3 meters. Usin
son4ous [18]

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

The image below was taken with a camera that can shoot anywhere between one and two frames per second. A continuous series of photos was combined  for this image, so the cars you see are in fact the same car, but photographed at differene times.

Let's assume that the camera was able to deliver 1.3 frames per second for this photo, and that the car has a length of approximately 5.3 meters. Using this information and the photo itself, approximately how fast did the car drive?

Answer: v = 6.5 m/s

Explanation: The question asks for velocity of the car. Velocity is given by:

v=\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}

The camera took 7 pictures of the car and knowing its length is 5.3, the car's displacement was:

Δx = 7(5.3)

Δx = 37.1 m

The camera delivers 1.3 frames per second and it was taken 7 photos, so time the car drove was:

1.3 frames = 1 s

7 frames = Δt

Δt = 5.4 s

Then, the car was driving:

v=\frac{37.1}{5.4}

v = 6.87 m/s

The car drove at, approximately, a velocity of 6.87 m/s

A body in simple harmonic motion has a displacement x that varies in time t according to the equation x = 5cos(π t + π/3) , wher
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

1/2 Hz

Explanation:

A simple harmonic motion has an equation in the form of

x(t) = Acos(\omega t - \phi)

where A is the amplitude, \omega = 2\pi f is the angular frequency and \phi is the initial phase.

Since our body has an equation of  x = 5cos(π t + π/3) we can equate \omega = \pi and solve for frequency f

2\pi f = \pi

f = 1/2 Hz

What will happen two temperatures if you increase particle motion
nalin [4]

If the temperature is increased the particles gain more kinetic energy or vibrate faster. This means that they move faster and take more space.
