Will two separate 50db sounds together constitute a 100db sound explain mathematical

1 answer:

5 0

Putting together two distinct 50 dB sound, do not create a 100 dB sound. Since decibels are logarithm of energy, creating two sounds together only makes the energy increase but the logarithm only goes up by somehow little. So increasing the sound by 10 dB, only makes it 10000 times louder because each 10 dB increase in sound makes the sound 10 times louder.

Twice as loud is an increase of 10Log (2) = 3.01 dB. So, 53,01 dB is twice as loud as 50dB.

A bag of potato chips contains 2.00 L of air when it is sealed at sea level at a pressure of 1.00 atm and a temperature of 20.0°

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

The volume at mountains is 2.766 L.

Explanation:

Given that,

Volume $V_{1} = 2.00\ L$

Pressure $P_{1}= 1.00\ atm$

Pressure $P_{2}= 70.0\ kPa$

Temperature $T_{1}= 20.0°C = 293\ K$

Temperature $T_{2}= 7.00°C = 280\ K$

We need to calculate the volume at mountains

Using gas law

$\dfrac{PV}{T}=\ Constant$

For both temperature,

$\dfrac{P_{1}V_{1}}{T_{1}}=\dfrac{P_{2}V_{2}}{T_{2}}$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{101.325\times2}{293}=\dfrac{70\times V_{2}}{280}$

$V_{2}=\dfrac{101.325\times2\times280}{293\times70}$

$V_{2}=2.766\ litre$

Hence, The volume at mountains is 2.766 L.

Describe the energy transformations that take place when a skier starts skiing down a hill but after a time is brought to rest b

Andrews [41]

<span>The skier will transform their gravitational energy into mostly kinetic energy (with a minor amount transformed into heat from the friction of the skis across the snow and air friction). Once the skier hits the snowdrift, their kinetic energy is transferred into the snow which moves when they strike it due to the kinetic energy that is now in the snow. Along with again a minor amount of heat energy transferred as they move through the snowdrift.</span>

Water flowing through a cylindrical pipe suddenly comes to a section of pipe where the diameter decreases to 86% of its previous

Orlov [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

The speed of the water in the large section of the pipe is not stated

so i will assume 36m/s

(if its not the said speed, input the figure of your speed and you get it right)

Continuity equation is applicable for ideal, incompressible liquids

Q the flux of water that is Av with A the cross section area and v the velocity,

so,

$A_1V_1=A_2V_2$

$A_{1}=\frac{\pi}{4}d_{1}^{2} \\\\ A_{2}=\frac{\pi}{4}d_{2}^{2}$

the diameter decreases 86% so

$d_2 = 0.86d_1$

$v_{2}=\frac{\frac{\pi}{4}d_{1}^{2}v_{1}}{\frac{\pi}{4}d_{2}^{2}}\\\\=\frac{\cancel{\frac{\pi}{4}d_{1}^{2}}v_{1}}{\cancel{\frac{\pi}{4}}(0.86\cancel{d_{1}})^{2}}\\\\\approx1.35v_{1} \\\\v_{2}\approx(1.35)(38)\\\\\approx48.6\,\frac{m}{s}$

Thus, speed in smaller section is 48.6 m/s

Paul and Ivan are riding a tandem bike together. They’re moving at a speed of 5 meters/second. Paul and Ivan each have a mass of

Sonbull [250]

The formula is Ke = 1/2 m v^2
The two of them together have a Ke of mv^2. So you either increase m or v. That's what makes the problem difficult. He can do D or B. We have to choose.

A is no solution. The Ke goes down because Paul loses Ivan's mass.
C is out of the question 3 meters/sec is a big reduction from 5 m/s. So now what do we do about B and D?

The question is what does the third person add. The tandoms I've peddled only allow for 1 or 2 people to add to the motion. So the third person only adds mass. He does not have a v that he is contributing to. To say that he is going 5m/s is true, but he's not contributing anything to that motion.

I pick B, but it is one of those questions that the correctness of it is in the head of the proposer. Be prepared to get it wrong. Argue the point politely if you agree with me, but back off as soon as you have presented your case.

B <<<<====== answer.
