Start with basic concept that you have the same amount of watts it's just how far away you are dictates the watts/meter squared (per area). As the distance from the object is increased, the area increases as distance squared (think of a sphere of increasing radius, as you increase the radius, the surface area increases as r^2, double radius, you get 4 times area, triple radius, 9 times area, and so forth). so safe from acoustical effects (reflections off walls, etc) as you increase the distance from a speaker, the sound will decrease by a factor of the distance squared, as before 2x distance =1/4 power, 3x distance =1/9 power. 

<span>so the only thing left out of your questions is what distance from speaker is the level at 10^-6 W/m^2 and what distance is point B from the speaker, and apply the 1/distance^2 principle. </span>

<span>The power at point B (PB) is the following: </span>

<span>power at given power level (we will call this point A or PA). </span>

<span>PB=PA*(DA/DB)^2 </span>

<span>Where PB is power level at PB (in W/m^2) </span>
<span>PA=power at point A or 10^-6 W/m^2 </span>
<span>DA=distance from speaker to point A </span>
<span>DB=distance from speaker to point B. </span>

What is the velocity of a wave with a wavelength of 9 meters and a period of 0.006
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer: 1,500m/s

Explanation:

Relationship existing between velocity of a wave (v), wavelength(¶) and frequency(f) is

v = f¶... (1)

Since Frequency (f) is the reciprocal of the period (T);

Frequency = 1/Period i.e F = 1/T... (2)

Substituting equation 2 into 1 we have;

v = 1/T × ¶

v = ¶/T

Given wavelength ¶ = 9m

Period T = 0.006s

v = 9/0.006

v = 1,500m/s

The velocity of the wave will be 1,500m/s

With regard to pneumatic mechanical devices which afford protection against the formation of ice, which of the following stateme
Andreyy89

Answer:

the answer is The pneumatic mechanical device can only be used as a de-icing device.

Explanation:

An ice protection system prevents the formation of ice, or enables the aircraft to shed the ice before it can grow to a dangerous thickness. Ice protection systems are designed to keep atmospheric ice from accumulating on aircraft surfaces such as wings, propellers and engine intakes.

The pneumatic mechanical device is the Pneumatic deicing boots which was invented by the Goodrich Corporation in 1923. The pneumatic boot is usually made of layers of rubber, with one or more air chambers between the layers.

Any design which utilizes either a mechanical means of breaking the bond of ice to the surface, or which operates on a periodic cycle, is necessarily a de-ice system.

A roller coaster car may be approximated by a block of mass m. Thecar, which starts from rest, is released at a height h above t
elena55 [62]

Answer:

The first part can be solved via conservation of energy.

mgh = mg2R + K\\K = mg(h-2R)

For the second part,

the free body diagram of the car should be as follows:

- weight in the downwards direction

- normal force of the track to the car in the downwards direction

The total force should be equal to the centripetal force by Newton's Second Law.

F = ma = \frac{mv^2}{R}\\mg + N = \frac{mv^2}{R}

where N = 0 because we are looking for the case where the car loses contact.

mg = \frac{mv^2}{R}\\v^2 = gR\\v = \sqrt{gR}

Now we know the minimum velocity that the car should have. Using the energy conservation found in the first part, we can calculate the minimum height.

mgh = mg2R + \frac{1}{2}mv^2\\mgh = mg2R + \frac{1}{2}m(gR)\\gh = g2R + \frac{1}{2}gR\\h = 2R + \frac{R}{2}\\h = \frac{5R}{2}

Explanation:

The point that might confuse you in this question is the direction of the normal force at the top of the loop.

We usually use the normal force opposite to the weight. However, normal force is the force that the road exerts on us. Imagine that the car goes through the loop very very fast. Its tires will feel a great amount of normal force, if its velocity is quite high. By the same logic, if its velocity is too low, it might not feel a normal force at all, which means losing contact with the track.

How many cycles have been completed after 3 seconds on the graph​
Reptile [31]

Answer:

3 Cycles

Explanation:

Every cycle on a cosine function are marked by the completion of 5 key points when moving along the x-axis:

(5, 0, -5, 0, 5)

This cycle has a frequency of 2, occurring once every second, thus answering our question easily.
