Answer: 5.06\times10^{9}

At sea level, there is one standard atmospheric pressure which is equal to 101.325 kilopascals.

The pressure of faintest sound that a human ear can hear is 20 micro-pascals.

taking the ratio of two:

\frac {101.325 kilopascals. }{20 micropascals} = \frac {101.325 \times 10^{3}Pa}{20 \times 10^{-6}Pa}

=5.06\times10^{9}

Hence, the atmospheric pressure at sea level is 5.06\times10^{9} times greater than the faintest sound that a human ear can hear.

A pendulum has a 0.35\ \text{kg}0.35 kg0, point, 35, space, start text, k, g, end text mass oscillating at a small angle from a
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

The frequency of oscillation of the simple pendulum is 0.49 Hz.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the simple pendulum, m = 0.35 kg

Length of the string to which it is attached, l = 1 m

We need to find the frequency of oscillation. The frequency of oscillation of the simple pendulum is given by :

f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{g}{l}} \\\\f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{9.8}{1}} \\\\f=0.49\ Hz

So, the frequency of oscillation of the simple pendulum is 0.49 Hz. Hence, this is the required solution.

Two concentric current loops lie in the same plane. The smaller loop has a radius of 3.4 cmcm and a current of 12 AA. The bigger
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Current in loops are

i1 = 12A

i2 = 20A

The loops are 3.4cm apart

The magnetic field at the center is found to be zero, so when want to find the radius of bigger loop

Magnetic Field is given as

B= μoi/2πr

Where,

μo is a constant = 4π×10^-7 Tm/A

r is the distance between the two wires

i is the current in the wires

B is the magnetic field

NOTE

Field due to large loop should be equal to the smaller loop.

B1 = B2

μo•i1 / 2π•r1 = μo•i2 / 2π•r2

Then, μo, 2π cancels out, so we have

i1 / r1 = i2 / r2

Make r2 subject of formula

i1•r2 = i2•r1

r2 = i2•r1 / i2

r2 = 20×3.4/12

r2 = 5.67cm

The radius of the bigger loop is 5.67cm.
