Answer:

5 candela

Explanation:

Let the candle brightness be B

Let the distance be d

The candle brightness is inversely proportional to the distance

B α 1/d

B = k/d

If my candle has a brightness of 15 candela from a distance of 2 meter, then;

15 = k/2

k = 30

To get the brightness when the distance is 6m;

B = k/d

B = 30/6

B = 5 candela

Hence the brightness will be 5 candela

Answer:

The water is stored in ice sheets and as snow

Explanation:

Temperature reduces with an increase in altitudes. The standard laps rate is 6.5°C per 1,000 m gained in elevation

At very high elevations, therefore,  the air is usually very cold such that when an elevation of 4,500 meters is reached at the equator, it is possible to observe snowfall and the water remain temporarily stored on the surface of the mountain as ice and snow

Answer:

An accelerometer is a tool that measures proper acceleration.[1] Proper acceleration is the acceleration (the rate of change of velocity) of a body in its own instantaneous rest frame;[2] this is different from coordinate acceleration, which is acceleration in a fixed coordinate system. For example, an accelerometer at rest on the surface of the Earth will measure an acceleration due to Earth's gravity, straight upwards[3] (by definition) of g ≈ 9.81 m/s2. By contrast, accelerometers in free fall (falling toward the center of the Earth at a rate of about 9.81 m/s2) will measure zero.

Accelerometers have many uses in industry and science. Highly sensitive accelerometers are used in inertial navigation systems for aircraft and missiles. Vibration in rotating machines is monitored by accelerometers. They are used in tablet computers and digital cameras so that images on screens are always displayed upright. In unmanned aerial vehicles, accelerometers help to stabilise flight.

When two or more accelerometers are coordinated with one another, they can measure differences in proper acceleration, particularly gravity, over their separation in space—that is, the gradient of the gravitational field. Gravity gradiometry is useful because absolute gravity is a weak effect and depends on the local density of the Earth, which is quite variable.

Single- and multi-axis accelerometers can detect both the magnitude and the direction of the proper acceleration, as a vector quantity, and can be used to sense orientation (because the direction of weight changes), coordinate acceleration, vibration, shock, and falling in a resistive medium (a case in which the proper acceleration changes, increasing from zero). Micromachined microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) accelerometers are increasingly present in portable electronic devices and video-game controllers, to detect changes in the positions of these devices.
