At a rock concert, the sound intensity 1.0 m in front of the bank of loudspeakers is 0.10 W/m². A fan is 30 m from the loudspeak

ers. Her eardrums have a diameter of 8.4 mm. How much sound energy is transferred to each eardrum in 1.0 second?

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Area, the power and the proportionality relationships between intensity and distance.

The expression for sound power is,

P = AI

Here,

A = Area

I = Intensity

P = Power

At the same time the area can be written as,

A = \frac{\pi d^2}{4}

Now the intensity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source, then

I \propto \frac{1}{r^2}

The expression for the intensity at different distance is

\frac{I_1}{I_2}= \frac{r^2_2}{r_1^2}

Here,

I_1 = Intensity at distance 1

I_2 = Intensity at distance 2

r_1 = Distance 1 from light source

r_2 = Distance 2 from the light source

If we rearrange the expression to find the intensity at second position we have,

I_2 = I_1 (\frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2})

If we replace with our values at this equation we have,

I_2 = (0.10W/m^2)(\frac{1.0m^2}{30.0m^2})

I_2 = 1.11*10^{-4} W/m^2

Now using the equation to find the area we have that

A = \frac{\pi (8.4*10^{-3}m)^2}{4}

A = 5.5*10^{-5}m^2

Finally with the intensity and the area we can find the sound power, which is

P = AI

P = (5.5*10^{-5}m^2)(1.11*10^{-4}W/m^2)

P = 6.1*10^{-9}J/s

Power is defined as the quantity of Energy per second, then

E = 6.1*10^{-9}J

Assuming the speed of sound is 340 m/s, what is the most likely speed of the jet shown below?
inysia [295]

Well we know it has to be greater than 300,000 km/s since we can't see it.

We can't calculate it any closer than that using the given information.

deff fn [24]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Absolute zero

Explanation:

A Bose-Einstein condensate is known as the fifth state of matter which is made of a collection of ultra cooled atoms (at almost absolute zero degrees -273.15 °C) such that the there is very slight free energy within the atoms which results in almost no relative motion between the atoms. The atoms then combine forming clumps such that phenomena usually observed at the microscopic level such as wavefunction interference become observable at the microscopic level.
