Answer:
the intensity of the sun on the other planet is a hundredth of that of the intensity of the sun on earth.
That is,
Intensity of sun on the other planet, Iₒ = (intensity of the sun on earth, Iₑ)/100
Explanation:
Let the intensity of light be represented by I
Let the distance of the star be d
I ∝ (1/d²)
I = k/d²
For the earth,
Iₑ = k/dₑ²
k = Iₑdₑ²
For the other planet, let intensity be Iₒ and distance be dₒ
Iₒ = k/dₒ²
But dₒ = 10dₑ
Iₒ = k/(10dₑ)²
Iₒ = k/100dₑ²
But k = Iₑdₑ²
Iₒ = Iₑdₑ²/100dₑ² = Iₑ/100
Iₒ = Iₑ/100
Meaning the intensity of the sun on the other planet is a hundredth of that of the intensity on earth.

d₂ = 3d</h2><h2>
The diameter of the second wire is 3 times that of the initial wire.</h2>
Explanation:
Using the formula for calculating the resistivity of an object to find the diameter.
Resistivity P = RA/L
R is the resistance of the material
A is the cross sectional area
L is the length of the material
Since A = πd²/4
P = R( πd²/4)/L
P = Rπd²/4L ... 1
If the second wire of the same material and length is found to have resistance R/9, the resistivity of the second material will be;
P₂ = (R/9)A₂/L₂
P₂ = (R/9)(πd₂²/4)/L₂
P₂ = (Rπd₂²/36)/L₂
P₂ = (Rπd₂²)/36L₂
Since the length and resistivity are the same;
P = P₂ and L =L₂
Equating 1 and 2;
Rπd²/4L = (Rπd₂²)/36L₂
Rπd²/4L = (Rπd₂²)/36L
d² = d₂²/9
d₂² = 9d²
Taking the square root of both sides;
√d₂² = √9d²
d₂ = 3d
Therefore the diameter of the second wire is 3 times that of the initial wire
Answer:
A.
Explanation:
Earth is composed of different layers and one layer moves over another due to differences in the densities.
According to the physics of density, a substance having less density floats over a higher density substance. The oceanic crust has more density than the continental crust that is why continental crust float over oceanic crust.
So in the given example, plate B is moving below the plate A, it means plate B is more dense than plate A because plate B is composed of oceanic crust
. <u>For example : continents float over the asthenosphere (a layer below the lithosphere).</u>
Hence, the correct answer is "A
".
