What is the sound intensity level in a car when the sound intensity is 0.525 μW/m2 ? Use I0 = 1.00×10−12 W/m2 for the reference
never [62]

Answer:

The sound intensity level in the car is 57.2 dB.

Explanation:

Sound intensity level in decibels, β = 10 log (I/I₀); where I = 0.525 × 10⁻⁶ W/m², I₀ = 1.0 × 10⁻¹² W/m²

β (dB) = 10 log ((0.525 × 10⁻⁶)/(1.0 × 10⁻¹²)) = 10 × 5.72 = 57.2 dB

Hope this Helps!!!

What are the two principle advantages of telescopes over eyes?
Stells [14]

Answer:

i) Telescopes can be used to view far distant objects but the human eye can't view far distant objects.

ii) Telescopes uses two convex lenses producing a magnified image while the human eye only possesses one convex lens (image seen are smaller than that viewed under telescopes)

Explanation:

The telescopes can be used to view far distant objects due to their presence of two convex lenses. The two convex lenses are the objective lens (lens closer to object) and the eye piece lens (lens closer to eye). The object to be viewed forms an intermediate image first before the final image is seen using the eye piece lens.

The human eye only possess one convex lens and as such cannot view far ranged objects.

Under state law, what is the blood-alcohol limit for legally operating a motor vehicle?
Sati [7]

Answer:

HOPE IT HELPS.....

Explanation:

The legal standard for drunkenness across the United States ranges from 0.10 to 0.08. If a person's BAC measures 0.08, it means that there are 0.08 grams (i.e., 80 mg) of alcohol per 100 ml of blood. The American Medical Association says that a person can become impaired when the blood alcohol level hits 0.05.
