Good question. It like a fail safe,if you hit a car tail gate going slightly fast it come out to protect you from hitting your on the the wheel or the mirror. See if you don't have a seat belt or it just don't fully stop you the airbag might help.Like concussions.  I Hope This Help you :)

Answer:

It shortens the passengers stopping time, and this decreases the force.

I think.

Answer:

The orbital speed can be found using v = SQRT(G*M/R). The R value (radius of orbit) is the earth's radius plus the height above the earth - in this case, 6.59 x 106 m.

A concert loudspeaker suspended high off the ground emits 34 W of sound power. A small microphone with a 1.0 cm2 area is 44 m fr
rjkz [21]

Answer:

<u>Part A</u>

I = 1.4 mW/m²  

<u>Part B</u>

β = 91.46 dB

Explanation:

<u>Part A</u>

Sound intensity is the power per unit area of sound waves in a direction perpendicular to that area. Sound intensity is also called acoustic intensity.

For a spherical sound wave, the sound intensity is given by;

                                            I = \frac{P}{A}

                                            I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^{2}}

Where;

P is the source of power in watts (W)

I is the intensity of the sound in watt per square meter (W/m2)

r is the distance r away

Given:

P = 34 W,

A = 1.0 cm²

r = 44 m

The sound intensity at the position of the microphone is calculated to be;

                                     I = \frac{34}{4\pi (44)^{2}}

                                     I = \frac{34}{4\pi (44)^{2}}

                                     I = 0.0013975 W/m²

                                 ≈  I = 0.0014 W/m² = 1.4 × 10⁻³ W/m²

                                     I = 1.4 mW/m²

The sound intensity at the position of the microphone is 1.4 mW/m².

<u>Part B</u>

Sound intensity level or acoustic intensity level is the level of the intensity of a sound relative to a reference value.  It is a a logarithmic quantity. It is denoted by β and expressed in nepers, bels, or decibels.

Sound intensity level is calculated as;  

                                    β = 10log_{10}\frac{I}{I_{0}}  dB

Where,

β is the Sound intensity level in decibels (dB)

I is the sound intensity;

I₀ is the reference sound intensity;

By pluging-in, I₀ is 1.0 × 10⁻¹² W/m²

           ∴        β = 10log_{10}\frac{1.4 * 10^{-3} W/m^{2}}{1.0 * 10^{-12} W/m^{2}}

                      β = 10log_{10} (1.4 * 10^{9})

                      β = 91.46 dB

The sound intensity level at the position of the microphone is 91.46 dB.
