Both a fire blanket and the spray from a fire extinguisher put out a fire by pressing down on the fire and pushing any oxygen aw

ay. When there is no oxygen, the fire stops. Sometimes it is safe to pour water on a fire to put it out, but if a fire is ever caused by electrical energy, water will spread the fire.
With this in mind, what most likely explains why it is important to make sure hands are dry before working with any scientific electrical equipment?

Fires are started by water.
Germs should not be electrified.
Water can carry electricity.
Wet fire blankets will not work.

Answer:

Water can carry electricity

Explanation:

While pure water does not conduct electricity, ionized water does. It is common that water is ionized than is pure, unless it is purified. The dissolved ions in the water are what makes the water conduct electricity. Handling electric equipment with wet hands may lead to electrocution.

it is about 384,750 kilometers from earth to the moon. it took the apollo astronauts about 2 days and 19.5 hours to fly to the m
Jet001 [13]
We know, speed = Distance / Time
d = 384,750 Km
t = 2 days, 19.5 hours = 48+19.5 = 67.5 hour

Substitute their values, 
s = 384,750 / 67.5
s = 5700 Km/h

In short, Your Answer would be 5700 Km/h

Hope this helps!

At a rock concert, the sound intensity 1.0 m in front of the bank of loudspeakers is 0.10 W/m². A fan is 30 m from the loudspeak
Klio2033 [76]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Area, the power and the proportionality relationships between intensity and distance.

The expression for sound power is,

P = AI

Here,

A = Area

I = Intensity

P = Power

At the same time the area can be written as,

A = \frac{\pi d^2}{4}

Now the intensity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source, then

I \propto \frac{1}{r^2}

The expression for the intensity at different distance is

\frac{I_1}{I_2}= \frac{r^2_2}{r_1^2}

Here,

I_1 = Intensity at distance 1

I_2 = Intensity at distance 2

r_1 = Distance 1 from light source

r_2 = Distance 2 from the light source

If we rearrange the expression to find the intensity at second position we have,

I_2 = I_1 (\frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2})

If we replace with our values at this equation we have,

I_2 = (0.10W/m^2)(\frac{1.0m^2}{30.0m^2})

I_2 = 1.11*10^{-4} W/m^2

Now using the equation to find the area we have that

A = \frac{\pi (8.4*10^{-3}m)^2}{4}

A = 5.5*10^{-5}m^2

Finally with the intensity and the area we can find the sound power, which is

P = AI

P = (5.5*10^{-5}m^2)(1.11*10^{-4}W/m^2)

P = 6.1*10^{-9}J/s

Power is defined as the quantity of Energy per second, then

E = 6.1*10^{-9}J
