How do the amplitudes of a 120 decibel sound and a 100-decibel sound compare?​

Physics

NemiM [27]2 years ago

The 120 decibel sound has more amplitude than the 100 decibel sound.

In Physics, the relation between amplitude and intensity is that the intensity of the wave is directly proportional to the square of its amplitude.

Ben Rushin is waiting at a stop light. Turns green, ben accelerated from rest at a rate of 6.00 m/s squared for a time of 4.10 s
Lera25 [3.4K]
D= vt +.5at^2
since he started at rest, v (initial velocity) is 0
so d=.5at^2
d = .5 (6m/s^2) (4.1s)^2 
then put that into a calculator.

A spring scale hung from the ceiling stretches by 6.4 cm when a 2.0 kg mass is hung from it. The 2.0 kg mass is removed and repl
dolphi86 [110]
In the first case, the force acting on the spring is the weight of the mass:
F=mg=(2.0 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=19.6N
This force causes a stretching of x=6.4 cm=0.064 m on the spring, so we can use these data to find the spring constant:
k= \frac{F}{x}= \frac{19.6 N}{0.064 m}=306.3 N/m

In the second case, the first mass is replaced with a second mass, whose weight is
F=mg=(2.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=24.5 N
And since we know the spring constant, we can calculate the new elongation of the spring:
x= \frac{F}{k}= \frac{24.5 N}{306.3 N/m}=0.080 m=8.0 cm

A blow-dryer and a vacuum cleaner each operate with a voltage of 120 V. The current rating of the blow-dryer is 12 A, while that
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

a) 1450watts

b) 564watts

c) 1.11

Explanation:

Power consumed = IV

I is the current rating

V is the operating voltage

If a blow-dryer and a vacuum cleaner each operate with a voltage of 120 V and the current rating of the blow-dryer is 12 A, while that of the vacuum cleaner is 4.7 A then their individual power rating is calculated thus;

a) For blow-dryer

Operating voltage = 120V

Its current rating = 12A

Power consumed = IV

= 120×12

= 1440watts

b) For vacuum cleaner:

Operating voltage is the same as that of blow dryer = 120V

Its current rating = 4.7A

Power consumed = IV

= 120×4.7

= 564watts

c) Energy used = Power consumed × time taken

Energy used = Power × time

Energy used by blow dryer = 1440×20×60

= 1,728,000Joules

Energy used up by vacuum cleaner = 564×46×60

= 564×2760

= 1,556,640Joules

Ratio of the energy used by the blow-dryer in 20 minutes to the energy used by the vacuum cleaner in 46 minutes will be 1,728,000/1,556,640 = 1.11
