Answer:

Non metals

Explanation:

Atoms of metals do not hold their electrons to themselves. Instead they allow them to float around them delocalised. This is important because it is this characteristic that allows metals to be good conductors of electricity since electrons are free to move around to carry a charge.

With the exception of carbon and silicon, non metals do not have this characteristic. Each atom hold on to its electrons within their orbits for the most part. This makes non metals very pour at allowing charges to flow through them.

A baseball has a mass of 0.145 kilograms, and a bowling ball has a mass of 6.8 kilograms. What is the gravitational force betwee

Olegator [25]

Quite low

Gravitation force = $\frac{6.67* 10^{-11}*0.145*6.8 }{ 0.5^{2} }$ = 26.3 * $10^{-11}$ = 2.63 * $10^{-10}$ N

You are trying to hear your friend give directions to new store in town. But from your distance (1 point) of 15 m you only hear

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

option D

Explanation:

given,

Intensity of sound = 20 dB

distance = 15 m

intensity of sound is increased to = 50 dB

distance between the sound level = ?

Using relation

$L_2 = L_1 - |20(log \dfrac{r_2}{r_1})|$

L₁ = 20 dB L₂ = 50 dB r₁ = 15 m r₂ = ?

$log (\dfrac{r_2}{r_1}) = \dfrac{L_1 -L_2}{20}$

$\dfrac{r_2}{r_1}= 10^{\dfrac{|L_1 -L_2|}{20}}$

$r_2 =r_1 10^{\dfrac{|L_1 -L_2|}{20}}$

$r_2 =15 \times 10^{\dfrac{|20-50|}{20}}$

$r_2 =15 \times 10^{-1.5}$

r₂ = 0.47 m

r₂ = 47 cm

hence, the correct answer is option D
