Answer:

= 8

Explanation:

noise from power mower = 106 dB

noise from rock concert = 115 dB

we would be applying the formula for the decibel level of sound to get the intensities.

(B) = 10 log \frac{I}{I₀}

I = intensity of sound

I₀= reference intensity = 10^{-12} W/m^{2}

  • intensity of the power mower

106 = 10 log \frac{I}{10^{-12}}

10.6 =  log \frac{I}{10^{-12}}

10^{10.6} = \frac{I}{10^{-12}}

I = 10^{10.6} x 10^{-12}

I of power mower = 0.0398 W/m^{2}

  • intensity of the rock music

115 = 10 log \frac{I}{10^{-12}}

11.5 =  log \frac{I}{10^{-12}}

10^{11.5} = \frac{I}{10^{-12}}

I = 10^{11.5}  x 10^{-12}

I of rock music = 0.316 W/m^{2}

now the ratio of the intensity of the rock music to the power mower

= \frac{0.316}{0.0398}

= 8

What is the equation for measuring the change in thermal energy?
Daniel [21]

Answer:

Explanation: I think...

Thermal Energy formula Q = mcΔT

Q = Thermal Energy(J)

m = Mass(kg)

c = Specific Heat(J/kg°C)

ΔT = Change in Temperature(°C)

you have to write the equation based on what you are working on

Question 1 (13 marks) A charge Q is located on the top-left corner of a square. Charges of 2Q, 3Q and 4Q are located on the othe
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Explanation:

First of all we shall calculate electric field near charge 2Q .

electric field due to charge Q = K x Q /  (5 x 10⁻² )²

E₁  = KQ / 25 x 10⁻⁴ = KQ x 10⁴ / 25 . It is acting along positive x axis

E₁  = KQ x 10⁴  i / 25  

Similarly electric field due to charge 3Q near 2Q

=  3KQ x 10⁴  i / 25 . It is acting along y-axis

E₂ = 3KQ x 10⁴  j / 25

Similarly electric field due to charge 4Q near 2Q

=  4KQ x 10⁴  j / (25 x 2 )

= 2 KQ x 10⁴  / 25 . It is acting acting along north east direction

unit vector in north east direction = ( i + j )/ √2

So E₃ can be represented by

E₃ = 2 KQ x 10⁴  ( i + j )  / 25 x √2

Total field =  KQ x 10⁴  i / 25 + 3KQ x 10⁴  j / 25 + 2 KQ x 10⁴  ( i + j )  / ( 25 x √2 )

= KQ x 10⁴  [ i + 3 j + √2 i + √2 j ) / 25

= 400 KQ ( 2.414 i + 4.414 j )  N / C

Force on 2Q = Field x charge = 400 KQ ( 2.414 i + 4.414 j )  x 2Q  N

= 800 KQ² ( 2.414 i + 4.414 j ) N

= 800 x 9 x 10⁹ x ( 2.5 x 10⁻⁶ )² x 2.414 x ( i + 2 j ) N

= 108.63 ( i + 2 j ) N .

Magnitude of this force

= 108.63 x √5

= 243 N approx .

Why are moving iron instrument are of repulsion type
never [62]

Answer:

he spring provides the controlling torque. The air friction induces the damping torque, which opposes the movement of the coil. The repulsion type instrument is a non-polarized instrument, i.e., free from the direction of current passes through it. Thus, it is used for both AC and DC

<h3>What is the law of conservation of energy?</h3>

According to the Law of Conservation of Energy, energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but it can be transferred from one form to another.

The total energy is the sum of all the energies present in the system. The potential in a system is due to its position in the system.

energy

From the law of conservation of energy principle;

\rm  \frac{1}{2} mv^2 + \frac{1}{2} I\omega^2 = mgh \\\\ \frac{1}{2} mv^2 +\frac{1}{2}mr^2 \times (\frac{v}{r})^2=mgh

Substitute the given values;

\rm \frac{1}{2} (1.68)v^2+0.25(0.56)(v^2)= 1.68 \times (9.8)(1.54) \\\\ v= 5.72 \ m/sec \\\\ 0.84 v^2+0.14 v^2= 25.35 \\\\ 0.98 v^2 = 25.35 \\\\ v^2=25.86 \\\\ v= 5.08 \ m/sec

The height up to which the masses rebound;

\rm h' = \frac{v^2}{2g} \\\\\\ h'=\frac{5.72^2}{2 (9.81)} \\\\ h'=1.67 \ m

Hence, if this mass bounces straight back up from the floor, it will rebound at a height of 1.68 m.
