Will two sounds of 50 db constitute a sound of 100 db . Explain

Physics

Two sounds of 50 db each will NOT constitute a 100 db sound. This is because, the relation that relates levels of sounds is a logarithmic relation and not a direct relation of addition. <span>Each 10 dB increase in sound makes the sound 10 times louder.
</span>This means that, for 50 db, the resultant sound level will be <span>twice as loud is an increase of 10Log (2) = 3.01dB
</span>
The final sound level = 50 + 3.01 = 53.01 db

scoundrel [369]
You have to take note of the individual directions of the plane. Since one is heading east, and the other is heading west, the planes are heading at opposite directions. So, it means that their distance between each other would be equal to 1,200 miles which accounts for the sum of their individual distances. The equation is as follows:

Total Distance = Distance of slower plane + Distance of faster plane
1,200 miles = st + (30+s)(t)
where
s is the speed of the slower plane and t is the time. Since both are not given, the final answer would just be in terms of s.
1,200 = t(s + 30 + s)
t = 1200/(30+2s)
t = 600/(15+s)

Kepler's laws and explanations​
IgorC [24]

Answer:

<em>The first law states that</em> every planet describes an elliptical path about the sun as a single focus.

<em>The</em><em> </em><em>second</em><em> </em><em>law</em><em> </em><em>states</em><em> </em><em>that</em><em> </em>The line joining the planet to the sun sweeps out equal areas in equal time intervals.

<em>The</em><em> </em><em>third</em><em> </em><em>law</em><em> </em><em>states</em><em> </em><em>that</em><em> </em>The squares of the period of revolution is proportional to the cubes of the mean distance between the planet and the sun
