Remember that sound intensity decreases in inverse proportion to the distance squared. So, to solve this we are going to use the inverse square formula: \frac{I_{2} }{I_{1}}= (\frac{d{2} }{d_{1}})^2
where
I_{2} is the intensity at distance 2
I_{1} is the intensity at distance 1
d_{2} is distance 2
d_{1} is distance 1

We can infer for our problem that I_{1}=270, d_{1}=1, and d_{2}=3. Lets replace those values in our formula to find I_{2}:
\frac{I_{2} }{I_{1}}= (\frac{d{2} }{d_{1}})^2
\frac{I_{2} }{270} =( \frac{1}{3} )^2
\frac{I_{2} }{270} = \frac{1}{9}
I_{2}= \frac{270}{9}
I_{2}=30 dB

We can conclude that the intensity of the sound when is <span>3 m from the source is 30 dB.</span>

What force is required to accelerate to 10 kg object to 5.9 m/s/s?
g100num [7]

Force required to accelerate 10 kg object to 5.9 m/s/s ?

Mass = 10 kg

Acceleration = 5.9 m/s^2

Force = Mass * Acceleration

Force = 10 kg * 5.9 m/s^2

Force = 59 kg m /s^2 = 59 N

A person can jump 1.5m on the earth. How high could the person jump on a planet having the twice the mass of the earth and twice
MrMuchimi
F=mg=Gm1m2/r^2
g=Gm2/r^2
g=2Gm2/(2r)^2=2Gm2/4r^2=Gm2/2r^2
So since there is half times the gravity on this unknown planet that has twice earth's mass and twice it's radius, then the person can jump twice as high. 1.5*2= 3m high

A car and a train move together along straight, parallel paths with the same constant cruising speed v0. At t=0 the car driver n
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

a) t1 = v0/a0

b) t2 = v0/a0

c) v0^2/a0

Explanation:

A)

How much time does it take for the car to come to a full stop? Express your answer in terms of v0 and a0

Vf = 0

Vf = v0 - a0*t

0 = v0 - a0*t

a0*t = v0

t1 = v0/a0

B)

How much time does it take for the car to accelerate from the full stop to its original cruising speed? Express your answer in terms of v0 and a0.

at this point

U = 0

v0 = u + a0*t

v0 = 0 + a0*t

v0 = a0*t

t2 = v0/a0

C)

The train does not stop at the stoplight. How far behind the train is the car when the car reaches its original speed v0 again? Express the separation distance in terms of v0 and a0 . Your answer should be positive.

t1 = t2 = t

Distance covered by the train = v0 (2t) = 2v0t

and we know t = v0/a0

so distanced covered = 2v0 (v0/a0) = (2v0^2)/a0

now distance covered by car before coming to full stop

Vf2 = v0^2- 2a0s1

2a0s1 = v0^2

s1 = v0^2 / 2a0

After the full stop;

V0^2 = 2a0s2

s2 = v0^2/2a0

Snet = 2v0^2 /2a0 = v0^2/a0

Now the separation between train and car

= (2v0^2)/a0 - v0^2/a0

= v0^2/a0
