Answer:

(c) 97 dB sound intensity level

Explanation:

We have given the intensity of the loud car horn I=0.005w/m^2

We know that I_O=10^{-12}w/m^2

Now the sound intensity level is given by \beta =10log\frac{I}{I_0}=10log\frac{0.005}{10^{-12}}=96.98dB , which is nearly equal to 97

So the sound intensity level will be 97 dB

So option (c) will be the correct option

You are designing a flywheel. It is to start from rest and then rotate with a constant angular acceleration of 0.200 rev/s^2. Th
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

 I = 8.75 kg m

Explanation:

This is a rotational movement exercise, let's start with kinetic energy

        K = ½ I w²

They tell us that K = 330 J, let's find the angular velocity with kinematics

      w² = w₀² + 2 α θ

as part of rest w₀ = 0

      w = √ 2α θ

let's reduce the revolutions to the SI system

      θ = 30.0 rev (2π rad / 1 rev) = 60π rad

let's calculate the angular velocity

      w = √(2  0.200  60π)

      w = 8.683 rad / s

we clear from the first equation

        I = 2K / w²

let's calculate

        I = 2 330 / 8,683²

        I = 8.75 kg m

How do you calculate the average density of two different fluids?
ANTONII [103]
-- Take a sample of the first fluid.
-- Measure its mass.
-- Measure its volume.
-- Divide its mass by its volume.
   This gives you the density of the first fluid.

-- Take a sample of the second fluid.
-- Measure its mass.
-- Measure its volume.
-- Divide its mass by its volume.
   This gives you the density of the second fluid.

You want their average ?
OK

-- Add  (Density of the first fluid) + (Density of the second fluid).
-- Divide the sum by  2 .

   Now you have the average of the two densities.

Note:
That's NOT necessarily the density of a mixture when you
pour some of fluid-1 and fluid-2 into a jar.  The density of the
fluid in the jar is going to depend on how much of each fluid is
in there. 
I started to calculate how much of each one has to be there in order
for the density of the mixture to be equal to the average of their two
densities. But then I sat up straight, asked myself "Why ? !" . 
Then I stopped, and went into the kitchen and ate some meatloaf.

Hi:) why do metals have free electrons? anyone able to explain the conduction part as well? Thanks!
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Metals have free electrons due to the bonding in metallic substances.

In a metal there are strong attractive forces between the nuclei and the valance electrons.

Positively charged metal nuclei form a lattice (a cube like structure) each metal atom provides one or more valance electrons <u>that are free to move throughout the lattice</u> The electrons are attracted to the positively charged nuclei but not one individual nuclei, this is called non-directional bonding since it occurs in all directions.

Now all metals are conductive becuase of the free to move (delocalised) electrons. Since the valance electrons are free to move throughout the lattice they are able to carry a charge. (Ionic solids cannot since the ionic solids form a tightly packed lattice with cations and anions which have no free moving electrons, electrons have to be able to move to carry a charge)
