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.

Heights of men on a baseball team have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 166 cm 166 cm and a standard deviation of 5 cm

kaheart [24]

Answer:

95 %

99.7 %

Explanation:

$\mu$ = 166 cm = Mean

$\sigma$ = 5 cm = Standard deviation

a) 156 cm and 176 cm

$166-5\times 2=156$

$166+5\times 2=176$

From the empirical rule 95% of all values are within 2 standard deviation of the mean, so about 95% of men are between 156 cm and 176 cm.

b) 151 cm and 181 cm

$166-5\times 3 =151$

$166+5\times 3=181$

The empirical rule tells us that about 99.7% of all values are within 3 standard deviations of the mean, so about 99.7% of men are between 151 cm and 181 cm.
