Answer:
Decreases by 
times
Explanation:
The intensity of a sound is defined as the energy of the sound that is flowing in an unit time through the unit area which is in the direction that is perpendicular to the direction of the sound waves movement.
The intensity of energy is described by the inverse square law. It states that the intensity varies inversely with the distance square of the distance.
In other words, the sound intensity decreases as inversely proportional to the squared of the distance. i.e. 
In the context when the distance was 3 m, the intensity of the sound was = 
But when the distance became 6 cm or 0.06 m, the sound intensity decreases by = 
= times
Answer:
13.6 cm
Explanation:
From Snell's law:
n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂
In the air, n₁ = 1, and light from the horizon forms a 90° angle with the vertical, so sin θ₁ = sin 90° = 1.
Given n₂ = 4/3:
1 = 4/3 sin θ
sin θ = 3/4
If x is the radius of the circle, then sin θ is:
sin θ = x / √(x² + 12²)
sin θ = x / √(x² + 144)
Substituting:
3/4 = x / √(x² + 144)
9/16 = x² / (x² + 144)
9/16 x² + 81 = x²
81 = 7/16 x²
x ≈ 13.6
To the Earth in less than ten minutes.

Explanation:
To find out the angular velocity of merry-go-round after person jumps on it , we shall apply law of conservation of ANGULAR momentum
I₁ ω₁ + I₂ ω₂ = ( I₁ + I₂ ) ω
I₁ is moment of inertia of disk , I₂ moment of inertia of running person , I is the moment of inertia of disk -man system , ω₁ and ω₂ are angular velocity of disc and man .
I₁ = 1/2 mr²
= .5 x 175 x 2.13²
= 396.97 kgm²
I₂ = m r²
= 55.4 x 2.13²
= 251.34 mgm²
ω₁ = .651 rev /s
= .651 x 2π rad /s
ω₂ = tangential velocity of man / radius of disc
= 3.51 / 2.13
= 1.65 rad/s
I₁ ω₁ + I₂ ω₂ = ( I₁ + I₂ ) ω
396.97 x .651 x 2π + 251.34 x 1.65 = ( 396.97 + 251.34 ) ω
ω = 3.14 rad /s
kinetic energy = 1/2 I ω²
= 3196 J
Eris is slightly more massive than Pluto. However, both of them are smaller than Earth's Moon.
This should conclude that Eris is a dwarf planet.
