A 60 year old person has a threshold of hearing of 79.0 dB for a sound with frequency f=10,000 Hz. By what factor must the inten

sity of a sound wave of that frequency, audible to a typical young adult, (sound level=43.0 dB) be increased so that it is heard by the older person.

They provided the intensity in decibels for the problem, but they are unsure by what factor to increase it (I) to make the sound loud enough for the elderly person to hear.

Neglect f entirely.

The following equation must be used to convert decibels (dB) to I:

I=(10^(dB/10))*10^-12

Divide the elder person's dB by the younger person's dB after doing this for each dB.

After putting values and solving

we get,

1.8372093023.

So, the final answer is 1.8372093023.

Hatshy [7]
Think of it like a graph. You start at the origin which is (0,0).  go three to the east which now you are (3,0). Then, six to the north. Now, you are at (3,6).  1 to the east, ((4,6).  Then you go 4 to the west which is back tracking. So, you end at (0,6) which is saying you are now 6 km north from your campsite. 

Hope this helps!

3. An athlete makes a long jump and follows a projectile motion. Air resistance is negligible. Which one of the following statem
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

The motion under the influence of gravity is called projectile motion.

The acceleration due to gravity is constant through out the motion and it is always acting downwards.

When an athlete jumps and follow the projectile path, it always have the same horizontal velocity as there is no acceleration in the horizontal direction.

Also he has the vertical acceleration constant which is equal to the acceleration due to gravity and acts towards the center of earth.  

Option (b) is correct.

Two equal point charges QQQ are separated by a distance ddd. One of the charges is released and moves away from the other due on
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The kinetic energy K of the moving charge is K = 2kQ²/3d = 2Q²/(4πε)3d = Q²/6πεd

Explanation:

The potential energy due to two charges q₁ and q₂ at a distance d from each other is given by U = kq₁q₂/r.

Now, for the two charges q₁ = q₂ = Q separated by a distance d, the initial potential energy is U₁ = kQ²/d. The initial kinetic energy of the system K₁ = 0 since there is no motion of the charges initially. When the moving charge is at a distance of r = 3d, the potential energy of the system is U₂ = kQ²/3d and the kinetic energy is K₂.

From the law of conservation of energy, U₁ + K₁ = U₂ + K₂

So, kQ²/d + 0 = kQ²/3d + K

K₂ = kQ²/d - kQ²/3d = 2kQ²/3d

So, the kinetic energy K₂ of the moving charge is K₂ = 2kQ²/3d = 2Q²/(4πε)3d = Q²/6πεd
