New sound intensity level after the move is

                          10 log (1/3²)

                       =  -20 log (3)

                       =  -20 (0.4771)  =   9.54 dB LOWER than before the move.

Answer:

A) Energy is tranferred from Joey to the water. The temperature of the water increases.

Explanation:

At first Joey jumps and gains a height above the water level of the pool, this way has an energy potential initial, as Joey falls into the water his speed is increased that is to say its energy potential is transformed into kinetic energy, and at the moment of impact with the water, this energy kinetic is transformed into heat which is transferred to the water. Therefore the temperature increment.

Note: This is one of the reasons why space agencies are studying  spatial asteroids that are directed toward the earth, as these come with great kinetic energy, and great potential energy, if these are of a considerable size can cause catastrophic damage, even if they fall into the ocean, due to the large amount of energy which can cause the instantaneous evaporation of large amounts of water and collateral damage in other areas.

If a magnet could swing freely, what would happen to its north-seeking pole?
maksim [4K]

You clearly identified the pole you're talking about as the
"north-seeking" pole.  Assuming your integrity and sincerity,
we would then naturally expect that pole to seek north, and
point to Earth's north magnetic pole. 

I'm confident in this answer also because I have several of
these devices hanging from the ceiling of my office, and I can
attest to the fact that on most clear days, they do in fact point
toward Earth's north magnetic pole.

A locomotive is pulling 8 freight cars, each of which is loaded with the same amount of weight. The mass of each freight car (wi
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:106560 N

Explanation:

Given

Let Tension between  2 and 3 car be T_{23} and between 3 &4 is T_{34}

T_{23}-T_{34}=ma

mass of freight car =37,000 kg

acceleration of car=0.48 m/s^2

T_{34} is accelerating all freights behind 3

therefore

T_{34}=5\times ma

T_{34}=5\times 37000\times 0.48=88,800 N

Thus

T_{23}=T_{34}+ma

T_{23}=88,800+37000\times 0.48=88,800+17,760=106560 N

Sphinxa [80]
Who pays the income tax, the payroll tax, the estate and gift taxes? Who bears the burden of the gasoline and tobacco taxes? If Congress were to raise this tax rate, or lower that tax deduction, who would gain and who would lose? The outcomes of the political battles over changes in the tax system often hinge on the answers to such questions. This paper will discuss the economic consequences of taxation and the factors that influence where the burden of various taxes really falls. It will review some of the discussions in the economic literature. Finally, it will suggest that a shift to a markedly different type of tax system would benefit all players in the economy.
