Why do you sometimes get shocked by static electricity? Explain how it happens and give an example.

Answer:

That tiny shock you feel is a result of the quick movement of these electrons. You can think of a shock as a river of millions of electrons flying through the air. ... Static electricity happens more often during the colder seasons because the air is drier, and it's easier to build up electrons on the skin's surface.

Explanation:

Don't copy excatly but here it is.

HELP ME PLEASE! according ohm's law if the resistance remains constant what would happen if you decrease the amount of voltage b

SpyIntel [72]

B.
technically it would depend if the resistors were in series or parallel but B is the answer.

You are trying to overhear a juicy conversation, but from your distance of 20.0 m , it sounds like only an average whisper of 30

12345 [234]

Answer:

r₂ = 0.2 m

Explanation:

given,

distance = 20 m

sound of average whisper = 30 dB

distance moved closer = ?

new frequency = 80 dB

using formula

$\beta = 10 log(\dfrac{I_1}{I_0})$

I₀ = 10⁻¹² W/m²

now,

$30 = 10 log(\dfrac{I_1}{10^{-12}})$

$\dfrac{I_1}{10^{-12}}= 10^3$

$I_1= 10^{-8}\ W/m^2$

to hear the whisper sound = 80 dB

$80 = 10 log(\dfrac{I_2}{10^{-12}})$

$\dfrac{I_2}{10^{-12}}= 10^8$

$I_2= 10^{-4}\ W/m^2$

we know intensity of sound is inversely proportional to square of distances

$\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{r_2^2}{r_1^2}$

$\dfrac{10^{-8}}{10^{-4}}=\dfrac{r_2^2}{20^2}$

$10^{-4}=\dfrac{r_2^2}{20^2}$

r₂ = 0.2 m
