Answer:

The intensity of sound (I) = 3.16 x 10⁻⁶ W/m²

Explanation:

We have expression for sound intensity level (SIL),

              L=10log_{10}\left ( \frac{I}{I_0}\right )

Here we need to find the intensity of sound (I).

               L=10log_{10}\left ( \frac{I}{I_0}\right )\\\\log_{10}\left ( \frac{I}{I_0}\right )=0.1L\\\\\frac{I}{I_0}=10^{0.1L}\\\\I=I_010^{0.1L}

Substituting

          L = 67 dB and I₀ = 10⁻¹² W/m² in the equation

          I=I_010^{0.1L}=10^{-12}\times 10^{0.1\times 65}\\\\I_0=10^{-12}\times 10^{6.5}=10^{-5.5}=3.16\times 10^{-6}W/m^2

The intensity of sound (I) = 3.16 x 10⁻⁶ W/m²

Answer:

a)    h = 8.02 10³ m  b) yes

Explanation:

a) The pressure in a fluid is given by

      P = ρ g h

The pressure in this case is the atmospheric pressure, 1.013 105 Pa, let's clear the height (h)

      h = P / ρ g

      h = 1.013 10⁵ / (1.29 9.8)

      h = 8.02 10³ m

b) The height of Mount Everest is 8848 m

It is above this height, according to this model there would be no air to breathe

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The iris controls the amount of light that enters the eye by opening and closing the pupil. The iris uses muscles to change the size of the pupil. These muscles can control the amount of light entering the eye by making the pupil larger (dilated) or smaller (constricted).
