Answer:
1. Decibels
2. whisper - 20-decibels, normal talking - 60 decibels, rock concert - 120 decibels
3. 10,000
4. A Jet plane
Explanation:
1. The unit refers to what specifically is being measured. If the graph was of heights, it could be metres, centimetres, feet, or inches, for example. In this case, the graph is of sound level. We can see beside the Y axis label "Sound Level" that the unit is decibels.
2. Take each individual sound source and look at how tall the bars are (purple rectangles). For each one, we can look across to the Y axis (left side) and see the corresponding sound level for each
3. We were told in the introduction to the question that for every 10 decibel increase, the sound increases by 10 times. So going from 10 -> 20 decibels represents a 10x increase, and 10-> 30 represents a 100x increase.
To figure out the increase from whisper (20) to normal talking (60), take away 20 from 60 to see how many decibels difference there are between the two levels.
60-20 = 40
There is a 40 decibel increase. If 10 decibel difference = 10x and 20 decibel difference = 100x, then 30 = 1000x, and 40 = 10,000x (keep adding a 0 with every 10!)
4. We can see from the graph that the pain threshold is 120 decibels. The sound level that is greater than the pain threshold (meaning it would be painful) is the jet plane.
Answer:
The options are
A) electrical energy.
B) mechanical motion.
C) heat and light energy.
D) electrical and heat energy.
The answer is C) heat and light energy.
Explanation:
Chemical energy in the wood is lit up by fire and a burning process begins to occur. Burning involves a substance being consumed by fire and fire aids in the conversion of some forms of energy to mainly light energy as a result of the burning flames and also to heat energy as a result of the high temperature in the form of heat which the fire brings into play.
This validates the stored chemical energy in the logs being changed into light and heat energy.
Some scientists believe it was due to a sudden meteor impacts and others believe it was a gradual build up of a couple things like volcanic activity, climate change and the meteor impact was the final blow for total destruction.
