Three noise sources produce volume (loudness) levels of 70, 73, and 80 dB when acting separately. When the sources act together,

the resultant intensity is the sum of the individual intensities. Find the sound volume level in decibels when the three sources act at the same time.

Sound at 70 dB is 70 dB louder than the human reference level.  That's 10⁷ times as much as the reference sound power.

Sound at 73 dB is 73 dB louder than the human reference level.  That's 10⁷.³  or  2 x 10⁷  times as much as the reference sound power.

Sound at 80 dB is 80 dB louder than the human reference level.  That's 10⁸  or 10 x 10⁷ times as much as the reference sound power.

Now we can adumup:

Intensity of all 3 sources = (10⁷) + (2 x 10⁷) + (10 x 10⁷)

Intensity = (13 x 10⁷) times the sound power reference intensity.

Intensity in dB = 10 log (13 x 10⁷) = 10 (7 + log(13)

Intensity = 70 + 10 log(13)

Intensity = 70 + 10 (1.114)

Intensity = 70 + 11.14

Intensity = <em>81.14 dB</em>

Looking at the questioner's profile, I seriously wonder whether I'll ever get a comment in return from this creature, and how I'll ever find out if my solution is correct.  For that matter, I'm also seriously questioning how and whether my solution will ever be used for anything.

One hazard of space travel is debris left by previous missions. There are several thousand objects orbiting Earth that are large
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

6666.67 Newtons

Explanation:

The formula F=ma (force is equal to mass multiplied by acceleration) can be used to calculate the answer to this question.

In this case:

  • mass= 0.1mg= 1*10^-7 kg
  • velocity= 4.00*10^3 m/s
  • time= 6.00*10^-8 s

Using velocity and time, acceleration can be calculated as:

  • a= 6.667*10^10 m/s²

Substituting these values into the formula F=ma, the answer is:

  • F= (1*10^-7)kg * (6.667*10^10) m/s²
  • F= 6666.67 Newtons of force

Four springs with the following spring constants, 113.0 N/m, 65.0 N/m, 102.0 N/m, and 101.0 N/m are connected in series. What is
Llana [10]

Answer:

K_e_q=22.75878093\frac{N}{m}

f=1.363684118Hz

Explanation:

In order to calculate the equivalent spring constant we need to use the next formula:

\frac{1}{K_e_q} =\frac{1}{K_1} +\frac{1}{K_2} +\frac{1}{K_3} +\frac{1}{K_4}

Replacing the data provided:

\frac{1}{K_e_q} =\frac{1}{113} +\frac{1}{65} +\frac{1}{102} +\frac{1}{101}

K_e_q=22.75878093\frac{N}{m}

Finally, to calculate the frequency of oscillation we use this:

f=\frac{1}{2(pi)} \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

Replacing m and k:

f=\frac{1}{2(pi)} \sqrt{\frac{22.75878093}{0.31} } =1.363684118Hz

solmaris [256]
1)Typically, atom gain or lose electrons to achieve 
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed is option C, a stable electron configuration

2)The formation of an ionic bond involves

I believe the correct answer is A, transfer of electrons since it is electrons that is involved in a chemical reaction.

Starting from rest, the distance a freely-falling object will fall in 0.50 second is?
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

1.23 m

Explanation:

The vertical distance covered by a free-falling object starting from rest in a time t is

y=\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

In this problem, we have

t = 0.50 s

So the distance covered is

y=\frac{1}{2}(9.8 m/s^2)(0.50 s)^2=1.23 m
