Answer:

10 feet

Explanation:

In a standard procedure, there should be an approximate value of 10 feet between the water pipe and the Earth. This is to prevent the contamination of water and also the corrosion of the water pipe. Most pipes are made of iron and in the presence of water, there can be a chemical reaction between the iron and water in the presence of oxygen.

Suppose a large housefly 3.0 m away from you makes sound with an intensity level of 40.0 dB. What would be the sound intensity l
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the intensity of the noise be represented by I

Given that

40dB = 10 log 10 ⁡ ( I /I•) ........ 1

I• is the lowest or threshold intensity of sound made.

I represents the intensity of the sound/ noise

The intensity of noise of 1000flies will be

β = 10 log 10 ⁡(1000I/I•)

Open up the bracket

β = 10 log 10(1000)+ 10 log 10(I/I•)

10 log 10(10^3)+10 log 10(I/I•)

3×10(10 log 10) +10 log 10(I/I•)

Recall, 10 log 10 = 1

30×1 + 10 log 10(I/I•).........2

Put equation 1 into 2

β =30+40

= 70db

Which characeristic makes omasis different from diffusion.
Ksju [112]
 <span>haha I used to think biology was so hard, i find it quite easy now. 
Okay, so basically Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Diffusion is generally the movement of a gradient from higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Osmosis applies to water only, whereas diffusion, you have many types such as Passive transport [ movement of molecules from high- low, NO CELLULAR ENERGY needed! ] then you have faciliated diffusion ( basically uses a channel protein to allow big substances to go through the membrane : NO ENERGY needed] 
OSMOSIS, the important thing to remember is that water ALWAYS flow towards the region with the higher concentration of the solute (ex: Salt is solute, water is solvent) solute is the thing that is being dissolved. Solvent is the one doing the dissolving. Hope this helped!</span>

The main water line enters a house on the first floor. The line has a gauge pressure of 1.94 x 105 Pa. (a) A faucet on the secon
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer

given,

gauge pressure =   1.94 x 10⁵ Pa

Pressure due to 4.90 m column of water

= ρ g h

= (4.90) x  (1000)  x (9.8) Pa

= 48020 Pa

Gauge pressure of second floor faucet

= 1.94 x 10⁵Pa - 48020 Pa

P_g= 145980 Pa

( b )

Let h = height of faucet from which no water can flow even if open

P = ρ g h

1.94 x 10⁵  = h x(1000) x (9.8)

h = 19.79 m
