The gas- powered mower is

(98dB - 70dB) = 28 dB louder.

28 dB = 10^2.8

= 631 times as much sound power.

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

On the Moon :----

1500 x 1.6 = 2400 m /s is initial velocity of bullet .

g = 1.6 m /s²

v = u - gt

0 = 2400 - 1.6 t

t = 1500 s

This is time of ascent

Time of decent will also be the same

Total time of flight = 2 x 1500 = 3000 s

On the Earth : ---

v = u - a₁ t

0 = u - a₁ x 18

u = 18a₁

v² = u² - 2 x a₁ x 2743.2

0 = (18a₁ )² - 2 x a₁ x 2743.2

a₁ = 16.93

For downward return

s = ut + 1/2 a₂ x t²

2743.2 = 0 + .5 x a₂ x 31²

a₂ = 5.7 m /s²

If d be the deceleration produced by air

g + d = 16.93 ( during upward journey )

g - d = 5.7

g = (16.93 + 5.7) / 2  

= 11.315 m / s

d = 5.6 m /s²

So air is creating a deceleration of 5.6 m /s².

A potential difference of 53 mV is developed across the ends of a 12.0-cm-longwire as it moves through a 0.27 T uniform magnetic
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

The angle between the magnetic field and the wire’s velocity is 19.08 degrees.                                            

Explanation:

Given that,

Potential difference, V = 53 mV

Length of the wire, l = 12 cm = 0.12 m

Magnetic field, B = 0.27 T

Speed of the wire, v = 5 m/s

Due to its motion, an emf is induced in the wire. It is given by :

\epsilon=Blv\sin\theta

Here,

\theta is the angle between magnetic field and the wire’s velocity

\sin\theta=\dfrac{\epsilon}{Blv}\\\\\sin\theta=\dfrac{53\times 10^{-3}}{0.27\times 0.12\times 5}\\\\\sin\theta=0.327\\\\\theta=19.08^{\circ}

So, the angle between the magnetic field and the wire’s velocity is 19.08 degrees.

A very light ping-pong ball moving east at a speed of 4 m/s collides with a very heavy stationary bowling ball. The Ping-Pong ba
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

They experience the same magnitude impulse

Explanation:

We have a ping-pong ball colliding with a stationary bowling ball. According to the law of conservation of momentum, we have that the total momentum before and after the collision must be conserved:

where is the initial momentum of the ping-poll ball

is the initial momentum of the bowling ball (which is zero, since the ball is stationary)

is the final momentum of the ping-poll ball

is the final momentum of the bowling ball

We can re-arrange the equation as follows or

which means (1) so the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ping-pong ball is equal to the magnitude of the change in momentum of the bowling ball.

However, we also know that the magnitude of the impulse on an object is equal to the change of momentum of the object:

(2) therefore, (1)+(2) tells us that the ping-pong ball and the bowling ball experiences the same magnitude impulse:
