Answer: additional intensity of 30db result in 120db

Explanation:

Sound intensity is defined as the sound power per unit area in other words, it is the power carried by sound waves per unit area in a direction perpendicular to that area. The common approach to sound intensity measurement is to use the decibel scale to measure the ratio of a given intensity I to the threshold of hearing intensity.

Since log 1000=3

Therefore, 10 log 1000=30 db assuming that the distance is the same in both cases.

result in 120db i.e 90+30 = 120db. Which is painful at that point.

Answer:

90db

Explanation:

The 1000, will produce sa.e intensity, since the firecrackers are made of same materials

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

arcsin(\frac{R\mu}{(R+l)\sqrt{\mu^2+1}})

Explanation:

By the Law of Sines,

sin \theta = \frac{sin \phi R}{ l + R}

From Newton's Law,

mg = N\sqrt{\mu^2+1}

And the last equation again from Newton's Law,

\mu N = mgsin\phi

Then if we collect all equations together,

\mu N = mgsin\phi = N\sqrt{\mu^2+1}sin\phi\\

sin\theta = \frac{\mu R}{ (l + R)\sqrt{\mu^2+1}}

Thus,

\theta = arcsin(\frac{R\mu}{(R+l)\sqrt{\mu^2+1}})

You should have observed that there are some frequencies where the output is stronger than the input. Discuss how that is even p
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

w = √ 1 / CL

This does not violate energy conservation because the voltage of the power source is equal to the voltage drop in the resistence

Explanation:

This problem refers to electrical circuits, the circuits where this phenomenon occurs are series RLC circuits, where the resistor, the capacitor and the inductance are placed in series.

In these circuits the impedance is

             X = √ (R² +  (X_{C} -X_{L})² )

where Xc and XL is the capacitive and inductive impedance, respectively

            X_{C} = 1 / wC

           X_{L} = wL

From this expression we can see that for the resonance frequency

           X_{C} = X_{L}

the impedance of the circuit is minimal, therefore the current and voltage are maximum and an increase in signal intensity is observed.

This does not violate energy conservation because the voltage of the power source is equal to the voltage drop in the resistence

               V = IR

Since the contribution of the two other components is canceled, this occurs for

                X_{C} = X_{L}

                1 / wC = w L

                w = √ 1 / CL

Consider an object with s=12cm that produces an image with s′=15cm. Note that whenever you are working with a physical object, t
Leni [432]

A. 6.67 cm

The focal length of the lens can be found by using the lens equation:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{s}+\frac{1}{s'}

where we have

f = focal length

s = 12 cm is the distance of the object from the lens

s' = 15 cm is the distance of the image from the lens

Solving the equation for f, we find

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{12 cm}+\frac{1}{15 cm}=0.15 cm^{-1}\\f=\frac{1}{0.15 cm^{-1}}=6.67 cm

B. Converging

According to sign convention for lenses, we have:

- Converging (convex) lenses have focal length with positive sign

- Diverging (concave) lenses have focal length with negative sign

In this case, the focal length of the lens is positive, so the lens is a converging lens.

C. -1.25

The magnification of the lens is given by

M=-\frac{s'}{s}

where

s' = 15 cm is the distance of the image from the lens

s = 12 cm is the distance of the object from the lens

Substituting into the equation, we find

M=-\frac{15 cm}{12 cm}=-1.25

D. Real and inverted

The magnification equation can be also rewritten as

M=\frac{y'}{y}

where

y' is the size of the image

y is the size of the object

Re-arranging it, we have

y'=My

Since in this case M is negative, it means that y' has opposite sign compared to y: this means that the image is inverted.

Also, the sign of s' tells us if the image is real of virtual. In fact:

- s' is positive: image is real

- s' is negative: image is virtual

In this case, s' is positive, so the image is real.

E. Virtual

In this case, the magnification is 5/9, so we have

M=\frac{5}{9}=-\frac{s'}{s}

which can be rewritten as

s'=-M s = -\frac{5}{9}s

which means that s' has opposite sign than s: therefore, the image is virtual.

F. 12.0 cm

From the magnification equation, we can write

s'=-Ms

and then we can substitute it into the lens equation:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{s}+\frac{1}{s'}\\\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{s}+\frac{1}{-Ms}

and we can solve for s:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{M-1}{Ms}\\f=\frac{Ms}{M-1}\\s=\frac{f(M-1)}{M}=\frac{(-15 cm)(\frac{5}{9}-1}{\frac{5}{9}}=12.0 cm

G. -6.67 cm

Now the image distance can be directly found by using again the magnification equation:

s'=-Ms=-\frac{5}{9}(12.0 cm)=-6.67 cm

And the sign of s' (negative) also tells us that the image is virtual.

H. -24.0 cm

In this case, the image is twice as tall as the object, so the magnification is

M = 2

and the distance of the image from the lens is

s' = -24 cm

The problem is asking us for the image distance: however, this is already given by the problem,

s' = -24 cm

so, this is the answer. And the fact that its sign is negative tells us that the image is virtual.

Sandra's target heart rate zone is 135bpm—172bpm. Marissa's target heart rate zone is 143bpm—176bpm. They stop playing basketbal
Feliz [49]

Answer: Neither Sandra nor Marissa will be in her THR zone.


Explanation:


1) Actual pulse of both Sandra and Marissa : 144 bpm


2) Decrease of 20 bpm ⇒ 144 bpm - 20 bpm = 124 bpm


3) Sandra's TRH is in the range 135 - 172 bpm.


Since 124 < 135, she will be below the range.


4) Marissa's TRH range is 143 - 176 bpm.


Since, 124 < 143, she is below the range


In conlusion, neither Sandra nor Marissa will be in her THR zone.
