If a flea can jump straight up to a height of 0.410 m , what is its initial speed as it leaves the ground?

Initial velocity = $v_0$

acceleration in the downward direction = -9.8 $\frac {m}{s^2}$

Final velocity at the highest point = 0

Maximum height reached = 0.410 m

Now, Using third equation of motion:

$\(v^2 = {v_0}^{2} + 2aH$

$\(0^2 = {v_0}^{2} - 2 \times 9.8 \times 0.410$

${v_0}^{2} = 2 \times 9.8 \times 0.410$

$v_0 = 2.834 \frac {m}{s}$

Speed with which the flea jumps = $2.834 \frac {m}{s}$

What is the length of the shadow cast on the vertical screen by your 10.0 cm hand if it is held at an angle of θ=30.0∘ above hor

Alchen [17]

Answer:

The length is $D = 5 \ cm$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The length of the hand is $l = 10.0 \ cm$

The angle at the hand is held is $\theta = 30 ^o$

Generally resolving the length the length of the hand to it vertical component we obtain that the length of the shadow on the vertical wall is mathematically evaluated as

$D = l * sin(\theta )$

substituting values

$D = 10 * sin (30)$

$D = 5 \ cm$

You are trying to overhear a juicy conversation, but from your distance of 24.0m , it sounds like only an average whisper of 40.

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The distance is $r_2 = 0.24 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The distance from the conversation is $r_1 = 24.0 \ m$

The intensity of the sound at your position is $\beta _1 = 40 dB$

The intensity at the sound at the new position is $\beta_2 = 80.0dB$

Generally the intensity in decibel is is mathematically represented as

$\beta = 10dB log_{10}[\frac{d}{d_o} ]$

The intensity is also mathematically represented as

$d = \frac{P}{A}$

So

$\beta = 10dB * log_{10}[\frac{P}{A* d_o} ]$

=> $\frac{\beta}{10} = log_{10} [\frac{P}{A (l_o)} ]$

From the logarithm definition

=> $\frac{P}{A * d_o} = 10^{\frac{\beta}{10} }$

=> $P = A (d_o ) [10^{\frac{\beta }{ 10} } ]$

Here P is the power of the sound wave

and A is the cross-sectional area of the sound wave which is generally in spherical form

Now the power of the sound wave at the first position is mathematically represented as

$P_1 = A_1 (d_o ) [10^{\frac{\beta_1 }{ 10} } ]$

Now the power of the sound wave at the second position is mathematically represented as

$P_2 = A_2 (d_o ) [10^{\frac{\beta_2 }{ 10} } ]$

Generally power of the wave is constant at both positions so

$A_1 (d_o ) [10^{\frac{\beta_1 }{ 10} } ] = A_2 (d_o ) [10^{\frac{\beta_2 }{ 10} } ]$

$4 \pi r_1 ^2 [10^{\frac{\beta_1 }{ 10} } ] = 4 \pi r_2 ^2 [10^{\frac{\beta_2 }{ 10} } ]$

$r_2 = \sqrt{r_1 ^2 [\frac{10^{\frac{\beta_1}{10} }}{ 10^{\frac{\beta_2}{10} }} ]}$

substituting value

$r_2 = \sqrt{ 24^2 [\frac{10^{\frac{ 40}{10} }}{10^{\frac{80}{10} }} ]}$

$r_2 = 0.24 \ m$
