Answer:3 \mu s

Explanation:

Given

Bianca is at x=600 m

i.e. distance between origin and Bianca is 600 m

time taken to reach Bianca eyes is

t=\frac{600}{speed\ of\ light}

t=\frac{600}{3\times 10^8}

t=2\times 10^{-6} s

t=2 \mu s

i.e. Cracker exploded at t=2\mu s because it is observed at t=4\mu s

Time taken by second cracker flash to reach Bianca eyes

t_2=\frac{300}{3\times 10^8}

t_2=10^{-6}

t_2=1 \mu s

Therefore it will be observed at t=3 \mu s

Answer:

P_{out} = 0.100 W = 100 mW

Explanation:

The attached image shows the system expressed in the question.

We can define an expression for the system.

The equivalent equation for the system would be

G_{total} = G_{1} + G_{2} + G_{3}\\G_{total} = -16dB+20dB-10 dB = -6 dB

so, the input signal could be expressed in dB terms

P_{in} [dB] = 10 log_{10}(P_{in}) \\P_{in} [dB] = 10 log_{10}(0.4)\\P_{in} [dB] = -3.97 dB (1)

so the output signal could be expressed as.

P_{out} = P_{in} + G_{1} + G_{2} + G_{3}\\P_{out} = -3.97 dB - 6dB = -9.97 dB

The gain should be expressed in dB terms and power in dBm terms so

P_{out} = -9.97 + 30 = 20.03 dBm

using the (1) equation to find it in terms of Watts

P_{out} = 0.100 W = 100 mW

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

a fossil of a footprint, trail, burrow, or other trace of an animal rather than of the animal itself.

Explanation:

Trace fossils are the indirect evidence of life in the past, such as the footprints, tracks, burrows, borings, and feces left behind by animals, rather than the preserved remains of the actual animal body itself.

Fossil is the naturally preserved remains of plants and animals which somehow get trapped in amber, hair, petrified wood, oil, coal, and DNA remnants.

The loudness of a sound is inversely proportional to the square of your distance from the source of the sound. if your friend is
kirill [66]
Let loudness be L, distance be d, and k be the constant of variation such that the equation that would best represent the given above is,
                    L = k/(d^2)
For Case 1,
                       L1 = k/(d1^2)
For Case 2,
                       L2 = k/((d1/4)^2)
For k to be equal, L1 = 16L2. 
Therefore, the loudness at your friend's position is 16 times that of yours.
