The sound level at 1.0 m from a certain talking person talking is 60 dB. You are surrounded by five such people, all 1.0 m from

you and all talking equally loud at the same time. The threshold of hearing is 1.0 × 10-12 W/m2. What sound level are you being exposed to? You can neglect any absorption, reflection, or interference of the sound. The threshold of hearing is 1.0 × 10-12 W/m2.

Answer:

66.98 db

Explanation:

We know that

$L_T=L_S+10log(n)$

L_T= Total signal level in db

n= number of sources

L_S= signal level from signal source.

$L_T=60+10 log(5)$

= 66.98 db

A 100 cm3 block of lead weighs 11N is carefully submerged in water. One cm3 of water weighs 0.0098 N.

Pie

#1

Volume of lead = 100 cm^3

density of lead = 11.34 g/cm^3

mass of the lead piece = density * volume

$m = 100 * 11.34 = 1134 g$

$m = 1.134 kg$

so its weight in air will be given as

$W = mg = 1.134* 9.8 = 11.11 N$

now the buoyant force on the lead is given by

$F_B = W - F_{net}$

$F_B = 11.11 - 11 = 0.11 N$

now as we know that

$F_B = \rho V g$

$0.11 = 1000* V * 9.8$

so by solving it we got

V = 11.22 cm^3

(ii) this volume of water will weigh same as the buoyant force so it is 0.11 N

(iii) Buoyant force = 0.11 N

(iv)since the density of lead block is more than density of water so it will sink inside the water

#2

buoyant force on the lead block is balancing the weight of it

$F_B = W$

$\rho V g = W$

$13* 10^3 * V * 9.8 = 11.11$

$V = 87.2 cm^3$

(ii) So this volume of mercury will weigh same as buoyant force and since block is floating here inside mercury so it is same as its weight = 11.11 N

(iii) Buoyant force = 11.11 N

(iv) since the density of lead is less than the density of mercury so it will float inside mercury

#3

Yes, if object density is less than the density of liquid then it will float otherwise it will sink inside the liquid

A wheel rotates without friction about a stationary horizontal axis at the center of the wheel. A constant tangential force equa

love history [14]

Answer:

I = 16 kg*m²

Explanation:

Newton's second law for rotation

τ = I * α Formula (1)

where:

τ : It is the moment applied to the body. (Nxm)

I : it is the moment of inertia of the body with respect to the axis of rotation (kg*m²)

α : It is angular acceleration. (rad/s²)

Kinematics of the wheel

Equation of circular motion uniformly accelerated :

ωf = ω₀+ α*t Formula (2)

Where:

α : Angular acceleration (rad/s²)

ω₀ : Initial angular speed ( rad/s)

ωf : Final angular speed ( rad

t : time interval (rad)

Data

ω₀ = 0

ωf = 1.2 rad/s

t = 2 s

Angular acceleration of the wheel

We replace data in the formula (2):

ωf = ω₀+ α*t

1.2= 0+ α*(2)

α*(2) = 1.2

α = 1.2 / 2

α = 0.6 rad/s²

Magnitude of the net torque (τ )

τ = F *R

Where:

F = tangential force (N)

R = radio (m)

τ = 80 N *0.12 m

τ = 9.6 N *m

Rotational inertia of the wheel

We replace data in the formula (1):

τ = I * α

9.6 = I *(0.6 )

I = 9.6 / (0.6 )

I = 16 kg*m²

An electron in a vacuum chamber is fired with a speed of 9800 km/s toward a large, uniformly charged plate 75 cm away. The elect

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

The plate's surface charge density is $-8.056\times10^{-9}\ C/m^2$

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed = 9800 km/s

Distance d= 75 cm

Distance d' =15 cm

Suppose we determine the plate's surface charge density?

We need to calculate the surface charge density

Using work energy theorem

$W=\Delta K.E$

$W=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{f}^2-\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{i}^2$

Here, final velocity is zero

$W=0-\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{i}^2$ ...(I)

We know that,

$W=-Fd$

$W=-E\times e\times d$

$W=-\dfrac{\lambda}{2\epsilon_{0}}\times e\times d$ ...(II)

From equation (I) and (II)

$-\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{i}^2=-\dfrac{\lambda}{2\epsilon_{0}}\times e\times d$

Charge is negative for electron

$\lambda=\dfrac{mv^2\epsilon_{0}}{(-e)d}$

Put the value into the formula

$\lambda=-\dfrac{9.1\times10^{-31}\times(9800\times10^{3})^2\times8.85\times10^{-12}}{1.6\times10^{-19}\times(75-15)\times10^{-2}}$

$\lambda=-8.056\times10^{-9}\ C/m^2$

Hence, The plate's surface charge density is $-8.056\times10^{-9}\ C/m^2$

A singly-charged ion enters a velocity selector that has a 0.18-T magnetic field perpendicular to an electric field of 1.6 kV/m,

lesya692 [45]

Answer: a) 8.9km/s b) 4.05 x 10^-25 kg

Explanation:

a)

To find the velocity,   V = E/B plug in the numbers we get  V = 1.6kV/m / 0.18 T = 8.9 km/s   

b)

To find the ion mass,   m = erB^2/E = 0.125 m x 1.6x10^-19 x (0.18)^2 / ( 1.6 x 10 ^ 3 V/m ) = 4.05 x 10 ^ -25 kg
