Answer:

3 times option (d) is correct

Explanation:

Initial intensity = Io

final intensity = 9 Io

initial amplitude = A

Final amplitude = ?

let the final amplitude is A'.

Intensity of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude of the wave.

I ∝ A²

So, Io ∝ A²   ... (1)

9Io ∝ A'²     .... (2)

Divide (2) by (1)

9 = A'²/A²

A' = 3 A

So, the amplitude becomes 3 times.

Answer:

option D

Explanation:

given,

intensity\ \alpha \ (Amplitude)^2

increase the intensity by factor of 9

    I₁ = I₀

    I₂ = 9 I₀

now,

\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{A_1^2}{A_2^2}

\dfrac{I_0}{9I_0}=(\dfrac{A_1}{A_2})^2

(\dfrac{A_1}{A_2})^2=\dfrac{1}{9}

\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}=\dfrac{1}{3}

      A₂ = 3 A₁

hence, amplitude increase with the factor of 3

so, the correct answer is option D

The tongue weight of a trailer should be what percent of the gross trailer weight rating
mario62 [17]

Answer:

between 10 and 15 percent

Explanation:

How to put your load

- First load the heavy

The safe trailer starts loading correctly. Uneven weight can affect steering, brakes and swing control.

In general, 60% of the weight of the load should be in the front half of the trailer and 40% in the rear half (unless the manufacturer indicates something different). When you place the load, you want it to be balanced from side to side, keeping the center of gravity near the ground and on the axle of the trailer.

-  Hold your load

After balancing the load, you must hold it in place. An untapped load can move when the vehicle is moving and cause trailer instability.

- Trailer weight

To avoid overloading the trailer, look for the recommended weight rating. It is located on the VIN plate in the trailer chassis, usually on the tongue. Confirm the Gross Vehicle Weight Classification (GVWR) before towing.

GVWR: is the total weight that the trailer can support, including its weight. You can also find this number as the Gross Trailer Weight (GTW). The weight of the tongue should be 10-15% of the GTW.

Energy energy can be transferred from one form to another we use many Indrajeet Converse in our daily life observe carefully to
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Find the list below.

Explanation:

Energy conversion imply the transformation of energy from one form to another. Examples of these conversions in my home include the following:

1. Chemical energy stored in food is converted to mechanical energy used in working(example sweeping)

2. Chemical energy stored in batteries are used to produce sound energy from the radio.

3. Electrical energy flowing through the wires are used to provide heat energy from the heating device.

4. Electric energy stored in the fan is converted to kinetic energy.

5. Chemical energy stored in petrol is converted to mechanical and electrical energies in the generator.

6. Electric energy supplied by the electric gas cooker is used to generate thermal energy after heating water.

7. Electrical energy flowing through the wires supply light energy in the bulbs.

8. Electric energy is converted to light and sound energy in the televisions.

9. Light energy from the sun is converted to chemical energy in the plants at the garden.

10. Electric energy is converted to sound and light energy in the kitchen blender.
