Answer:

17.89 m/s

Explanation:

recall that one of the equations of motion can be expressed as:

v² = u² + 2as,

where

v = final velocity = given as 20 m/s

u = initial velocity = given as 7.0 m/s

a = acceleration. Since it is freefalling downwards, the acceleration it would experience would be the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

s = displacement (we are asked to find)

simply substitute the known values into the equation:

v² = u² + 2as

20² = 7² + 2(9.81)s

400 - 49 = 19.62s

19.62s = 351

s = 351/19.62

s = 17.8899

s = 17.89 m/s

Airida [17]

Answer:

\frac{I}{I_0}=113.68

Explanation:

P = Acoustic power = 63 µW

r = Distance to the sound source = 210 m

Acoustic power

P=IA\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{P}{A}\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{63\times 10^{-6}}{4\times \pi \times 210^2}

Threshold intensity = I_0=1\times 10^{-12}\ W/m^2

Ratio

\frac{I}{I_0}=\frac{\frac{63\times 10^{-6}}{4\times \pi \times 210^2}}{1\times 10^{-12}}\\\Rightarrow \frac{I}{I_0}=113.68

Ratio of the acoustic intensity produced by the juvenile howler to the reference intensity is 113.68

Which is true regarding the penetrating power of radiation? (2 points) Select one:
Monica [59]

Answer:d

Explanation:

Alpha particles are heaviest among alpha, beta and gamma so they have least amount of Penetration compared to both.

Gamma Particles are lightest among three so they can Penetrate most .

The order of Penetration is given by

Alpha< Beta < Gamma
