Answer:

1. It becomes 9 times.

2. it becomes one fourth times.

3. It becomes one hundredth times.

4. It becomes one ninth times.

Explanation:

Intensity of a wave is directly proportional to the square of amplitude of the wave and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the source and observation point.

1. As the amplitude of the wave is tripled, the intensity becomes 9 times.

2. As the amplitude becomes half, the intensity becomes one fourth.

3. As the distance between the source and the ear is one tenth, the intensity becomes one hundredth.

4. As the distance between source and ear is one third, the intensity becomes one ninth.

In the Millikan oil drop experiment the measured charge of any single droplet was always a whole number multiple of -1.60 x 10-1

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Number of electrons, n = 6

Explanation:

Total charge in a single droplet, $q=-9.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

The measured charge of any single droplet, $e=-1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

Let n is the number of excess electrons are contained within the drop. According to the quantization of charge :

$q=ne$

$n=\dfrac{q}{e}$

$n=\dfrac{-9.6\times 10^{-19}}{-1.6\times 10^{-19}}$

n = 6

So, there are 6 electrons contained within the drop. Hence, this is the required solution.

During anomalous expansion of water ,heat transfer is limited to conduction and radiation only ,explain.

aalyn [17]

Heat transfer is limited to conduction and radiation only in anomalous expansion of water simply because of the temperature at which the expansion occurs and density

<h3>What is anomalous expansion of water?</h3>

Anomalous expansion of water is a property of water in which water expands instead of contracting.

Anomalous expansion of water makes water less dense.
The major effect of this anomalous expansion it will still remain less dense and at the surface of water.
Interestingly, this expansion occurs when it is cooled from 4°C to 0°C.
