Answer: Decibels

Explanation:

Decibel is the unit which used to measure intensity of sound. Sound intensity is the power carried by the sound waves per unit area perpendicular to it.

I = \frac{P}{A} measured in W/m²

In decibels:

I (dB) = 10 log_{10}\frac{I}{I_o}

With each unit rise of decibel, the sound intensity varies by a factor of 10.

Use Hooke's Law to determine the work done by the variable force in the spring problem. A force of 350 newtons stretches a sprin
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

350 N force stretches the spring by 30 cm

spring constant K = 350 / 0.30 = (350 / 0.3) N / m

To calculate work done by a spring force we proceed as follows

spring force when the spring is stretched by x = Kx

This force is variable so work done by it can be calculated by integration

Work done by it in stretching from x₁ to x₂

W = ∫ F dx

= ∫ Kx dx with limit from x₁ to x ₂

= 1/2 K ( x₂² - x₁² )

Putting the given values of x₁ = 0.50 m , x₂ = 0.8 m

Work done

= 1/2 x (350 / 0.3)x ( 0.80² - 0.50² )

= 227.50 J

I need help with my physics homework agh! Please help it's due tomorrow. <br>​
storchak [24]

Rubbing both pieces cause each piece to have a negative charge.

When two parts have the same they repel each other, so holding one piece up tot he end of the other piece would push it away.

Because one piece is held in the middle by a string, it would rotate the piece in a circle.

If they held the piece to the other end of the one held by a string it would start to rotate in the opposite direction.

What is the mass of a bird if it has a potential energy of 147J when flying at a height of 30 m above the ground?
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

0.5kg

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Potential energy = 147J

Height  = 30m

Unknown:

Mass of the bird  = ?

Solution:

Potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body. Now, the expression for finding the potential energy is given as;

      P.E  = mgH

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

H is the height

      147  = m x 9.8 x 30

         m = 0.5kg
