The human ear can respond to an extremely large range of intensities - the quietest sound the ear can hear is smaller than 10-20 times the threshold which causes damage after brief exposure. If you could measure distances over the same range with a single instrument, and the smallest distance you could measure was 1 mm, what would the largest be, in kilometers?

the largest distance we can measure is 10¹⁴ km

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Threshold hearing = 10⁻²⁰

smallest distance measured = 1 mm

Largest distance measured will be;

⇒ ( threshold hearing )⁻¹ × smallest distance

= ( 1 / 10⁻²⁰ ) × 1 mm

= 10²⁰ × 1mm

= 10²⁰ mm

we know that; 1000 mm = 10⁶ km

Largest distance = ( 10²⁰ / 10⁶ ) km

= 10¹⁴ km

Therefore, the largest distance we can measure is 10¹⁴ km

i'm so sorry if this is wrong i'm only in 6th grade xd

the answer is ampere

the ampere is used to measure electricity. an ampere is a unit of electric current equal. a unit of measure for the flow of current in a circuit. one ampere is the amount of current flow provided when one volt of electrical pressure is applied against one ohm of resistance.
