Suppose that the sound level of a conversation is initially at an angry 70 db and then drops to a soothing 50 db. assuming that

the frequency of the sound is 500 hz, determine the (a) initial and (b) final sound intensities and the (c) initial and (d) final sound wave amplitudes.

Angry sound level = 70 db
Soothing sound level = 50 db
Frequency, f = 500 Hz
Assuming speed of sound = 345 m/s
Density (assumed) = 1.21 kg/m^3
Reference sound intensity, Io = 1*10^-12 w/m^2

Part (a): Initial sound intensity (angry sound)
10log (I/Io) = Sound level
Therefore,
For Ia = 70 db
Ia/(1*10^-12) = 10^(70/10)
Ia = 10^(70/10)*10^-12 = 1*10^-5 W/m^2

Part (b): Final sound intensity (soothing sound)
Is = 50 db
Therefore,
Is = 10^(50/10)*10^-12 = 18*10^-7 W/m^2

Part (c): Initial sound wave amplitude
Now,
I (W/m^2) = 0.5*A^2*density*velocity*4*π^2*frequency^2

Making A the subject;
A = Sqrt [I/(0.5*density*velocity*4π^2*frequency^2)]

Substituting;
A_initial = Sqrt [(1*10^-5)/(0.5*1.21*345*4π^2*500^2)] = 6.97*10^-8 m = 69.7 nm

Part (d): Final sound wave amplitude
A_final = Sqrt [(1*10^-7)/(0.5*1.21*345*4π^2*500^2)] = 6.97*10^-9 m = 6.97 nm

Un engrane que gira con una velocidad de 20 rad/s, es acelerado durante 5 segundos hasta alcanzar una velocidad de 35 rad/s
larisa [96]

Answer:

a) La aceleración angular es: \alpha=2\: rad/s^{2}

b) El engranaje gira 125 radianes.

c) El engranaje hara aproximadamente 20 revoluciones.

Explanation:

a)

La aceleración angular se define como:

\alpha=\frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t}

Donde:

  • Δω es la diferencia de velocidad angular (en otras palabras ω(final)-ω(inicial))
  • Δt es el tiempo en el que occure el cambio de velocidad angular

\alpha=\frac{35-25}{5}

\alpha=2\: rad/s^{2}

b)

El desplazamiento angular puede ser calculado usando la siguiente ecuación:

\theta=\theta_{i}+\omega_{i}t+\frac{1}{2}\alpha t^{2}

Aqui el angulo inicial es 0, por lo tanto.

\theta=20(5)+\frac{1}{2}(2)(5)^{2}

\theta=125\: rad

El engranaje gira 125 radianes.

c)

Lo que debemos hacer aquí es convertir radianes a revoluciones.

Recordemos que 2π rad = 1 rev

Entonces:

\theta=125\: rad \times \frac{1\: rev}{2\pi\: rad}=19.89\: rev

Por lo tanto el engranaje hara aproximadamente 20 revoluciones.

Sphere A has a charge of +2 x 10 to the power of -6 coulomb and is brought into contact with a similar sphere, B which has a cha
Setler [38]
When sphere A and B are brought in contact and separated, charge on each sphere becomes [2x10^-6 + (-4x10^-6)]/ 2 = -1x10^-6 C.

That is, charge is equally separated and is the average of charges on both spheres. The reason behind equal charge on both spheres after separation is, when they are kept in contact, their potential difference becomes same.

Choose the best explanation from among the following: A. It takes more energy to go from the Moon to the Earth because the Moon
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

B. The escape speed of the Moon is less than that of the Earth; therefore, less energy is required to leave the Moon.

Explanation:

Since the speed required to escape from the gravitational attraction of the Moon is less than the speed required to escape from the gravitational attraction of the Earth, less energy is required to travel from the Moon to the Earth, than is required to travel from the Earth to the Moon. This is because the kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of the velocity.
