Answer:

 5 × 10¹⁰ or 5 billion times louder is the intensity of sound at a rock concert in comparison with that of a whisper

Explanation:

Given that at a rock concert;

the intensity of sound is 110 dB compared to a whisper of 3 dB

Now; how many times louder will that of the whisper be compared to the sound of the rock concert

Using the formula for calculating decibels (dB);

For 110 dB

dB = 10log₁₀(W)

110 dB =  10^{(110/10)}

110 dB = 10¹¹

For 3dB

dB = 10log₁₀(W)

3 dB = 10^{(3/10)}

3 dB = 2

Now:

(110/3)dB = 10¹¹/2

(110/3)dB =  5 × 10¹⁰ or 5 billion times louder is the intensity of sound at a rock concert in comparison with that of a whisper

Answer:

<h2>The magnitude of the magnetic is 0.145 T</h2>

Explanation:

Given :

Speed of proton v = 3.2 \times 10^{6}\frac{m}{s}

Mass of proton m = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} Kg

The force on the proton in magnetic field is given by,

  F = q (v \times B)

  F = qvB \sin \theta

But \sin 90 = 1    (∵ Force is perpendicular to the velocity so \theta = 90)

  F = qvB

When particle enter in magnetic field at the angle of 90° so particle moves in circle

So force is given by,

  F = \frac{mv^{2} }{r}

Where r = radius but in our case 0.23 m, q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

By comparing above two equation,

  B = \frac{mv}{qr}

  B = \frac{1.67 \times 10^{-27} \times 3.2 \times 10^{6}  }{1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 0.23 }

  B = 0.145 T

2. How have human activities and natural processes influenced the gradual or sudden change in global temperature? (You need a mi
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Human activities and natural processes have influenced the change in the global temperature by the following processes

1) Green house gas such as carbon dioxide, methane, ozone, nitrous oxide and fluorinated gases produced by the combustion of fossil fuels the use of  industrial chemicals, the production of coal, and natural gas

2) Deforestation which reduces the natural process of conversion of carbon dioxide to oxygen, thereby, increasing the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere

3) The accumulation of the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere results in the trapping of heat in the atmosphere, causing the atmospheric temperature to rise

4) Changes in the amount of energy produced by the Sun can result in an increase or decrease in the atmospheric temperature

5) Volcanic activity that occurs at a sufficiently large scale can produce sulfur dioxide that blocks the rays of the Sun from reaching the Earth, resulting in a change of atmospheric temperature.

Productivity increases when A. inputs increase while outputs remain the same. B. inputs decrease while outputs remain the same.
Blizzard [7]

Answer: Productivity increases when inputs and outputs increase proportionately.

Explanation:

Productivity increases when inputs and outputs increase proportionately. Input has to be directly proportional to output to be productive. This means increase in input to a system must leads to drastic increase in the output. When the output is not balanced with the amount of input, it leads to unproductivity.

Being productive can be business wise or in terms if personal growth and development.
