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

Physics

Ivahew [28]3 years ago

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.

postnew [5]

Answer:

ucosφ=-v2cosθ2\\\\φ=cos^{-1} (\frac{-v2cosθ2}{cosφ} )

Explanation:

Two identical sticky masses m are moving in the xy-plane, with their momenta at an angle of φ with one another. They are each moving at the same speed v when they collide at the origin of the coordinates and stick together. After the collision, the masses move at an angle −θ2 with respect to the +x axis at speed v2 .1. What was the angle φ?

from the principle of momentum

In a system of colliding bodies,we know that the total momentum before collision will equal to the total momentum after collision.

Take note that momentum is the product of mass and velocity

momentum before collision=momentum after collision

mass, m

u=initial velocity of the identical masses

v2=the common velocity after the collision

Note that the collision is inelastic , since they both moved with the same velocity

umcosφ+umcosφ=(m+m)v2cos−θ2

2mucosφ=2mv2cos−θ2

ucosφ=-v2cosθ2\\\\φ=cos^{-1} (\frac{-v2cosθ2}{cosφ} )

1. If Randy races his F-150 down Highway 1 for 2560 meters in 60 seconds, what is his average speed?
Nimfa-mama [501]

The average speed is 42.7 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of an object in uniform motion (=moving at constant speed) is given by the equation:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

v is the speed

d is the distance

t is the time

For the car in this problem, we have:

d = 2560 m (distance)

t = 60 s (time)

Solving the equation, we find the average speed:

v=\frac{2560}{60}=42.7 m/s
