Answer:

<em> The intensity would be 0.01432 W/</em>m^{2}<em></em>

Explanation:

The sound intensity is the power that is transmitted by a sound wave per unit area.

Given that

Power output P of the 75-piece orchestra = 72.0 W

The listener's distance  r = 20.0 m

The intensity of sound waves (I) can be obtained with the expression below;

I = P/A .............. 1

where P is the power

A is the area, in this case, at the distance r the sound is radiated through  a sphere.

A = area of a sphere = 4πr^{2}

putting it into equation 1, the intensity would be;

I = P/ 4πr^{2}

Substituting our values we have;

I = 72.0 W /  4 π 20^{2} m^{2}

I = 0.01432 W/m^{2}

Therefore the intensity would be 0.01432 W/m^{2}

Given two metal balls (that are identical) with charges LaTeX: q_1q 1and LaTeX: q_2q 2. We find a repulsive force one exerts on
Romashka [77]

Answer:

q_1=\pm0.03 \mu C and q_2=\pm0.02 \mu C.

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law, the magnitude of  force between two point object having change q_1 and q_2 and by a dicstanced is

F_c=\frac{1}{4\pi\spsilon_0}\frac{q_1q_2}{d^2}-\;\cdots(i)

Where, \epsilon_0 is the permitivity of free space and

\frac{1}{4\pi\spsilon_0}=9\times10^9 in SI unit.

Before  dcollision:

Charges on both the sphere are q_1 and q_2, d=20cm=0.2m, and F_c=1.35\times10^{-4} N

So, from equation (i)

1.35\times10^{-4}=9\times10^9\frac{q_1q_2}{(0.2)^2}

\Rightarrow q_1q_2=6\times10^{-16}\;\cdots(ii)

After dcollision: Each ephere have same charge, as at the time of collision there was contach and due to this charge get redistributed which made the charge density equal for both the sphere t. So, both have equal amount of charhe as both are identical.

Charges on both the sphere are mean of total charge, i.e

\frac{q_1+q_2}{2}

d=20cm=0.2m, and F_c=1.406\times10^{-4} N

So, from equation (i)

1.406\times10^{-4}=9\times10^9\frac{\left(\frac{q_1+q_2}{2}\right)^2}{(0.2)^2}

\Rightarrow (q_1+q_2)^2=2.50\times10^{-15}

\Rightarrow q_1+q_2=\pm5\times 10^{-8}

As given that the force is repulsive, so both the sphere have the same nature of charge, either positive or negative, so, here take the magnitude of the charge.

\Rightarrow q_1+q_2=5\times 10^{-8}\;\cdots(iii)

\Rightarrow q_1=5\times 10^{-8}-q_2

The equation (ii) become:

(5\times 10^{-8}-q_2)q_2=6\times10^{-16}

\Rightarrow -(q_2)^2+5\times 10^{-8}q_2-6\times10^{-16}=0

\Rightarrow q_2=3\times10^{-8}, 2\times10^{-8}

From equation (iii)

q_1=2\times10^{-8}, 3\times10^{-8}

So, the magnitude of initial charges on both the sphere are 3\times10^{-8} Coulombs=0.03 \mu C and 2\times10^{-8} Colombs or 0.02 \mu C.

Considerion the nature of charges too,

q_1=\pm0.03 \mu C and q_2=\pm0.02 \mu C.

Why should mass not be represented by an arrow?
34kurt
Arrows represent vector quantities, which have both a magnitude (size) and a direction. For example on Earth, weight acts towards the planet's centre due to the effect of the gravitational field, and has a magnitude in Newtons (e.g. 10N). However, mass is a scalar quantity, meaning that it only has a magnitude - it's just the amount of stuff you have. It would be like an arrow without a direction, which of course is not possible (at least not in this universe...)
