Two sound waves have equal displacement amplitudes, but wave 1 has two-thirds the frequency of wave 2. What is the ratio of the

zlopas [31]

Answer:

$\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{4}{9}$

Explanation:

c = Speed of wave

$\rho$ = Density of medium

A = Area

$\nu$ = Frequency

$\nu_1=\dfrac{2}{3}\nu_2$

Intensity of sound is given by

$I=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho c(A\omega)^2\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho c(A2\pi \nu)^2$

So,

$I\propto \nu^2$

We get

$\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{\nu_1^2}{\nu_2^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{\dfrac{2}{3}^2\nu_2^2}{\nu_2^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{4}{9}$

The ratio is $\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{4}{9}$

How fast would 40 Newtons of force accelerate a 2 kg object?

Digiron [165]

Answer:

$20 m/s^2$

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on an object is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration:

$F=ma$

where

F is the net force on the object

m is its mass

a is its acceleration

In this problem:

F = 40 N is the force on the object

m = 2 kg is its mass

Therefore, the acceleration of the object is

$a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{40}{2}=20 m/s^2$
