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.

A weightlifter lifted 800 Newtons to a height of 2.5 meters. What is the power output if this was
stiv31 [10]

The power required is 1.6 kW.

Answer:

Explanation:

Power is defined as the amount of work done on any object for a given time interval. In other words, power is the amount of force required to move an object in a given period of time.

Power = Work done / time taken for that work done.

Here the force is given as 800 N and the displacement is given as 2.5 m, while the time required for the displacement is given as 1.22 seconds.

So the power will be ratio of the  product of force acting on the weightlifter, displacement of the weight to the time taken for that displacement.

Power = (800×2.5)/1.22 =1639 W

So the power required is 1.6 kW.
