What is the intensity of a sound with a measured intensity level of 84 db? (i0 = 10-12 w/m2)?

1 answer:

7 0

The unit measurement for sound can be expressed in terms of intensity and in decibels. The intensity of sound is the measure of its power over unit area. The common unit of measurement is in decibels. This is commonly used in measuring the extent of noise. The conversion from intensity to the decibel unit is through logarithmic function. The formula is:

dB = 10 log(I/I0), where I0 is 10^-12 Watts per square meter

Substituting the values to the equation,

84 = 10log(I/10^-12)
I = 0.0002512 W/m2

In scientific notation the intensity is 2.512 x 10^-4 W/m^2.

Answer:

The ball impact velocity i.e(velocity right before landing) is 6.359 m/s

Explanation:

This problem is related to parabolic motion and can be solved by the following equations:

$x=V_{o}cos \theta t$ ----------------------(1)

$y=y_{o}+V_{o} sin \theta t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$ ---------(2)

$V=V_{o}-gt$ ----------------------- (3)

Where:

x = m is the horizontal distance travelled by the golf ball

$V_{o}$ is the golf ball's initial velocity

$\theta=0\°$ is the angle (it was a horizontal shot)

t is the time

y is the final height of the ball

$y_{o}$ is the initial height of the ball

g is the acceleration due gravity

V is the final velocity of the ball

Step 1: finding t

Let use the equation(2)

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2 y_{o}}{g}}$

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2 (12.5 m)}{9.8 m/s^{2}}}$

$t=1.597$ s

Substituting (6) in (1):

$67.1 =V_{o} cos(0\°) 1.597$ -------------------(4)

Step 2: Finding $V_{o}$ :

From equation(4)

$67.1 =V_{o}(1) 1.597$

$V_0 = \frac{6.71}{1.597}$

$V_{o}=42.01$ m/s (8)

Substituting $V_{o}$ in (3):

$V=42.01 -(9.8)(1.597)$

v =42 .01 - 15.3566

V=26.359 m/s

A solenoid with an inductance of 8 mH is connected in series with a resistance of 5 Ω and an EMF forming a series RL circuit. A

monitta

Answer:

induced EMF = 240 V

and by the lenz's law direction of induced EMF is opposite to the applied EMF

Explanation:

given data

inductance = 8 mH

resistance = 5 Ω

current = 4.0 A

time t = 0

current grow = 4.0 A to 10.0 A

to find out

value and the direction of the induced EMF

solution

we get here induced EMF of induction is express as

E = - L $\frac{dI}{dt}$ ...................1

so E = - L $\frac{I2 - I1}{dt}$

put here value we get

E = - 8 × $10^{-3}$ $\frac{10 - 4}{0.2*10^{-3}}$

E = -40 × 6

E = -240

take magnitude

induced EMF = 240 V

and by the lenz's law we get direction of induced EMF is opposite to the applied EMF
