You are trying to overhear a juicy conversation, but from your distance of 24.0m , it sounds like only an average whisper of 40.

0dB . So you decide to move closer to give the conversation a sound level of 80.0dB instead. How close should you come?

Answer:

The distance is r_2  =  0.24 \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The  distance from the conversation is r_1    =  24.0 \ m

       The  intensity of  the sound at your position is  \beta _1 =  40 dB

        The  intensity at the sound at the new position is  \beta_2 =  80.0dB

Generally the intensity in  decibel is  is mathematically represented as

      \beta  =  10dB log_{10}[\frac{d}{d_o} ]

The intensity is  also mathematically represented as

      d =  \frac{P}{A}

So

    \beta  =  10dB *  log_{10}[\frac{P}{A* d_o} ]

=>   \frac{\beta}{10}  =  log_{10} [\frac{P}{A (l_o)} ]

From the logarithm definition

=>    \frac{P}{A  *  d_o}  =  10^{\frac{\beta}{10} }

=>      P =  A (d_o ) [10^{\frac{\beta }{ 10} } ]

Here P is the power of the sound wave

 and  A is the cross-sectional area of the sound wave  which is generally in spherical form

Now the power of the sound wave at the first position is mathematically represented as

               P_1 =  A_1 (d_o ) [10^{\frac{\beta_1 }{ 10} } ]

Now the power of the sound wave at the second  position is mathematically represented as

               P_2 =  A_2 (d_o ) [10^{\frac{\beta_2 }{ 10} } ]

Generally  power of the wave is constant at both positions  so  

    A_1 (d_o ) [10^{\frac{\beta_1 }{ 10} } ]  = A_2 (d_o ) [10^{\frac{\beta_2 }{ 10} } ]

      4 \pi r_1 ^2   [10^{\frac{\beta_1 }{ 10} } ]  = 4 \pi r_2 ^2   [10^{\frac{\beta_2 }{ 10} } ]

        r_2 =  \sqrt{r_1 ^2 [\frac{10^{\frac{\beta_1}{10} }}{ 10^{\frac{\beta_2}{10} }} ]}

       substituting value

        r_2 =   \sqrt{ 24^2 [\frac{10^{\frac{ 40}{10} }}{10^{\frac{80}{10} }} ]}

        r_2  =  0.24 \  m

You are driving a car with an automatic transmission; the shifter is mounted on the steering column. When you press down on the
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

From the narrative in the question, there seem to have been a break failure and the ordered step of response to this problem is to

1) Put on the hazard light to inform other road users of a problem or potential fault with your car and so they should continue their journey with caution.

2) Avoid pressing on the acceleration pedal as this might cause the car to gradually slow down due to friction and gravity

3)Try navigate the car to the service lane. This is the less busy lane where cars are sometimes parked briefly.

4) Continuously pump the breaks to try stop the car. Continuously pumping the breaks might just help you build enough pressure to stop the car because often time, there are some pressure left in the break.

5) At this point, the speed of the car should be relatively slow. So at this point, you could try apply the emergency hand break. Do not pull the emergency hand breaks if the car is on high speed. Doing this may cause the car to skid off the road.

Ratling [72]

Answer:

Electric force, F=-3.59\times 10^6\ N

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric charge 1, q_1=+40\ C

Electric charge 2, q_2=-40\ C

Distance, d=2\ km=2\times 10^3\ m

To find,

The electric force between these two sets of charges.

Solution,

There exists a force between two electric charges and this force is called electrostatic force. It is equal to the product of electric charged divided by square of distance between them.

F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{d^2}

k is the electrostatic constant

F=8.99\times 10^9\times \dfrac{40\times (-40)}{(2\times 10^3)^2}

F=-3.59\times 10^6\ N

So, the electric force between these two sets of charges is -3.59\times 10^6\ N.
