Hi, I am having some difficulties in solving this question. Could someone please explain this question to me in detail. The thin
aniked [119]

Answer:

a) 3.0×10⁸ m

b) 0 m

Explanation:

Displacement is the distance from the starting position to the final position.

a) In half a year, the Earth travels from one point on the circle to the point on the exact opposite side of the circle (from 0° to 180°).  The distance between the points is the diameter of the circle.

x = 2r

x = 2 (1.5×10⁸ m)

x = 3.0×10⁸ m

b) In a full year, the Earth travels one full revolution, so it ends up back where it started.  The displacement is therefore 0 m.

How does mass and force affect the motion of an object?
djyliett [7]
The greater the mass of an object, the more inertia it has, so the object resists changes to its motion better.

One violin creates a sound whose intensity level is 60dB. Find the intensity level of 16 violins, each playing at this intensity
Yanka [14]

Answer:

72.04 dB.

Explanation:

The intensity level of 60dB corresponds to the sound intensity I given by the equation

60dB = 10log(\dfrac{I}{I_0} )

where I_0 = 1*10^{-12}W/m^2

solving for I we get:

6 = log(\dfrac{I}{I_0} )

10^6 =\dfrac{I}{1*10^{-12}}

\boxed{I = 1*10^{-6} W/m^2}

Now, when 16 violins are playing the intensity I becomes

{I = 16(1*10^{-6} W/m^2)

which on the decibel scale gives

dB = 10log(\dfrac{16*10^{-6}}{1*10^{-12}} )

dB = 72.04\: dB.

Thus, playing 16 violins together gives the intensity level of 72 dB.

Julli [10]
C. They don't have free electrons.
The only things capable of conducting a charge are things that have charged particles in them that are free to move, e.g free electrons, free positions, or dissociated ions
