The intensity level of a "Super-Silent" power lawn mower at a distance of 1.0 m is 100 dB. You wake up one morning to find that

four of your neighbors are all mowing their lawns using identical "Super-Silent" mowers. When they are each 20 m from your open bedroom window, what is the intensity level of the sound in your bedroom? You can neglect any absorption, reflection, or interference of the sound. The lowest detectable intensity is 1.0 × 10-12 W/m2.

Answer:

The intensity level in the room is 63 dB

Explanation:

To calculate the intensity of sound in the room, we use the equation of definition of decibels

     β = 10 log (I / Io)      (1)

With “I” the sound intensity and “Io” the threshold intensity 1.0 10⁻⁻¹² W/m²

To calculate the intensity we will use the initial data and remember the power of the emitted sound is constant, in addition that the sound propagates in three-dimensional form or on a spherical surface

      I = P/A    ⇒    P = I A

The area of ​​a sphere is 4 π r², where I can calculate of 1

     β/10 = log (I/Io)

   I / Io = {10}^{\beta /10}

   I = Io  {10}^{\beta /10}

   I = 1 10⁻¹² 10⁽¹⁰⁰/¹⁰⁾   = 1 10⁻¹² 10¹⁰

   I = 1.0 10⁻² W

With this we can calculate the intensity for a distance of 20 m

 I  = 1.0 10⁻² / ( 4π 20²)

 I =  2.0 10⁻⁶ W/m²

We have already found the intensity at the point of interest, so we can calculate the intensity in decibels at this point with equation 1

    β = 10 log(2.0 10⁻⁶ / 1.0 10⁻¹²)

    β = 10 log ( 2 10⁶) = 10  6.3

    β = 63 dB

The intensity level in the room is 63 dB

A robin in flight has 20.8 J of PE when it is 27.6 m high. What is the mass of the robin? (Unit = kg)
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

<h2>\boxed{  \bold{ \purple{0.0769 \: kg \: }}}</h2>

Explanation:

\sf{Potential   Energy ( P.E ) \:  =  \: 20.8 \: joule}

\sf{distance \:  = 27.6 \: metre}

\sf{mass = } ?

\sf{acceleration \: due \: to \: gravity = 9.68 \:  {metre \: per \: second}^{2} }

Now, let's find the mass:

\sf{PE  \:  =  mass \times gravity \:  \times  \: distance}

plug the values

⇒\sf{20.8 = m \times 9.8 \times 27.6}

Multiply the numbers

⇒\sf{20.8 = 270.48 \: m}

Swap the sides of the equation

⇒\sf{270.48m = 20.8}

Divide both sides of the equation by 270.48

⇒\sf{ \frac{270.48m}{270.48}  =  \frac{20.8}{270.48} }

Calculate

⇒\sf{0.0769} kg

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!

A point charge of 6.0 nC is placed at the center of a hollow spherical conductor (inner radius = 1.0 cm, outer radius = 2.0 cm)
egoroff_w [7]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

             q = 6.0 nC = 6 \times 10^{-9} C

         inner radius (r) = 1.0 cm = 0.01 m   (as 1 cm = 100 m)

So, there will be same charge on the inner surface as the charge enclosed with an opposite sign.

Formula to calculate the charge density is as follows.

            \sigma = \frac{q_{in}}{A} .......... (1)

Since, area of the sphere is as follows.

               A = 4 \pi r^{2} ........... (2)

Hence, substituting equation (2) in equation (1) as follows.

      \sigma = \frac{q_{in}}{4 \pi r^{2}}

                   = \frac{6 \times 10^{-9} C}{4 \times 3.14 \times (0.01)^{2}}            

                   = 0.477 \times 10^{-5}

or,               = 4.77 \mu C/m^{2}

Thus, we can conclude that the resulting charge density on the inner surface of the conducting sphere is 4.77 \mu C/m^{2}.

One hazard of space travel is debris left by previous missions. There are several thousand objects orbiting Earth that are large
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is "6666.67 N".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Mass,

m = 0.100

Relative speed,

v = 4.00 x 10³

time,

t = 6.00 x 10⁻⁸

As we know,

⇒  F=m(\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} )

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒      =0.100\times 10^{-6}(\frac{4\times 10^3}{6\times 10^{-8}} )

⇒      =6666.67 \ N
