We would have to search at least 5,000,000,000 (5 billion) stars before we would expect to hear a signal.

To find out the number of stars that we will need to search to find a signal, we need to use the following formula:

  • total of stars/civilizations
  • 500,000,000,000 (500 billion) stars / 100 civilization = 5,000,000,000 (5 billion)

This shows it is expected to find a civilization every 5 billion stars, and therefore it is necessary to search at least 5 billion stars before hearing a signal from any civilization.

Note: This question is incomplete; here is the complete question.

On average, how many stars would we have to search before we would expect to hear a signal? Assume there are 500 billion stars in the galaxy.

Assuming 100 civilizations existed.

A vw bug is driving north on a straight two lane road at a constant 54 mph and chevy impala south at 47 on the same road (but di
mario62 [17]

Velocity of vw bug is given as

v_1 = 54 mpH towards north

velocity of imphala is given as

v_2 = 47 mph towards south

now we need to find velocity of imphala relative to bug

v_{21} = v_2 - v_1

v_{21} = 47 - (-54) = 101 mpH

so the speed is 101 mpH towards south so correct option is C

Constructive interference of two coherent waves will occur if the path difference is:___.
Olegator [25]

Constructive interference of two coherent waves will occur if the path difference is λ/2.

<h3>Constructive interference:</h3>

When two waves are in phase and their maxima add, a process known as constructive interference occurs where the combined amplitude of the two waves equals the sum of their individual amplitudes.

The resultant wave is created by adding the amplitudes of two waves that are in phase and traveling in the same direction. The waves in this instance are said to have experienced beneficial interference. The upward displacement of the medium is higher than the displacement of the two interfering pulses because upward displacement occurs when the waves experience constructive interference. When the phase difference between the waves is an even multiple of (180°), constructive interference happens.

You are sitting 3 m away from you friend who is watching a cartoon on his phone. How will the sound itensity change if your frie
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Decreases by $3.6 \times 10^{-3}$ 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. $\frac{1}{r^2}$

In the context when the distance was 3 m, the intensity of the sound was = $\frac{1}{9}$

But when the distance became 6 cm or 0.06 m, the sound intensity decreases by =  $\frac{1}{0.06^2}$

                       = $3.6 \times 10^{-3}$ times
