Answer:

The eccentricity of an orbit is a single number, between 0 and 1, which describes how stretched out the orbit is. Zero means the orbit is perfectly circular. An eccentricity close to 1 means the orbit is extremely elongated; only comets coming from the outer reaches of the solar system get close to this value.

We have that Zero signifies a perfect circle shape and 1 shows it maximum out of order shape.

From the question we are told

What does it mean when the orbital eccentricity of a planet is close to 1

Generally

Eccentricity

This in its simplest definition means to be eccentric which means to be a bit out of order or for the given subject at hand means to be a bit out of shape

Naturally the Eccentricity that an object possess is defined by two number 0(zero) to 1(one)

Where

Zero signifies a perfect circle shape and 1 shows it maximum out of order shape

A train whistle has a sound intensity level of 70. dB, and a library has a sound intensity level of about 40. dB. How many times
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

The sound intensity of train is 1000 times greater than that of the library.

Explanation:

We have expression for sound intensity level,

            L=10log_{10}\left ( \frac{I}{I_0}\right )

A train whistle has a sound intensity level of 70 dB

We have

           70=10log_{10}\left ( \frac{I_1}{I_0}\right )

A library has a sound intensity level of about 40 dB

We also have

           40=10log_{10}\left ( \frac{I_2}{I_0}\right )

Dividing both equations

           \frac{70}{40}=\frac{10log_{10}\left ( \frac{I_1}{I_0}\right )}{10log_{10}\left ( \frac{I_2}{I_0}\right )}\\\\\frac{7}{4}=\frac{log_{10}\left ( \frac{I_1}{I_0}\right )}{log_{10}\left ( \frac{I_2}{I_0}\right )}\\\\10^7\frac{I_2}{I_0}=10^4\frac{I_1}{I_0}\\\\\frac{I_1}{I_2}=10^3=1000

The sound intensity of train is 1000 times greater than that of the library.
