Latent heat is the heat required to change the phase. When the temperature remains constant during melting or boiling the added energy is employed in the phase change process.

<h3>What is average kinetic energy?</h3>

The average kinetic energy (KE) is defined as the one-half of the mass of each gas molecule times multiplied by the square of RMS velocity.

KE = \frac{1}{2}m (V_{rms})^{2}

where,

KE is the kinetic energy

m is the mass of each molecule

(V)rms is the RMS velocity

As we know since the temperature is increasing the average kinetic energy of the particle increases. So the added energy is utilized in the sensible heat due to which the temperature of the body increases resulting in the increase in average kinetic energy

But when the temperature remains constant during melting or boiling the added energy is converted into latent heat energy utilized to convert the phase of a substance.

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

If the mass of the sun is 1x, at least one planet will fall into the habitable zone if I place a planet in orbits___, ____, ____
nasty-shy [4]

If the mass of the sun is 1x, at least one planet will fall into the habitable zone. if I place a planet in orbits 2, 6, and 75, and all planets will orbit the sun successfully.

If the mass of the sun is 2x, at least one planet will fall into the habitable zone. if I place a planet in orbits 84, 1, and 5, and all planets will orbit the sun successfully.

If the mass of the sun is 3x, at least one planet will fall into the habitable zone if I place a planet in orbits 672, and 7 and all planets will orbit the sun successfully.
