The intensity level from a set of quintuplets (five babies) : <u>56 dB</u>

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Wave intensity is the power of a wave that is moved through a plane of one unit that is perpendicular to the direction of the wave

Can be formulated

\rm I=\dfrac{P}{A}

I = intensity, W m⁻²

P = power, watt

A = area, m²

The farther the distance from the sound source, the smaller the intensity

\rm \dfrac{I_2}{I_1}=\dfrac{(r_1)^2}{(r_2)^2}

So the intensity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source

\rm I\approx \dfrac{1}{r^2}

Intensity level (LI) can be formulated

\rm LI=10\:log\dfrac{I}{I_o}

Io = 10⁻¹²

For the level of intensity of several sound sources as many as n pieces can be formulated:

<h3>LIn = LI1 + 10 log n </h3>

The intensity level of 1 baby is

\rm LI=10\:log\dfrac{8.10^{-8}}{10^{-12}}

LI = 10 log 8.10⁴

LI = 49

The intensity level of 5 babies :

LI5 = LI + 10 log n

LI5 = 49 + 10 log 5

LI5 = 49 + 7

LI5 = 56

Sound intensity of 1 baby, I = 8*10^-8 W/m^2

The sound heard should be higher by:

10*log (n) where for 5 babies, n = 5. Then
10*log (n) = 10*log (5) ≈ 7 dB

Also give is the reference sound, Io = 1.0*10^-12 W/m^2

Therefore,
Sound intensity, L1 = 10*log (I/I1) = 10*log [(8*10^-8)/(1*10^-12)] ≈ 49 dB
Therefore, total intensity for the five babies is:

Total intensity = 49+7 = 56 dB

An arrow of mass 415 g is shot at a target with a speed of 68.5m/s. The target, which has a mass of 3.3 kg, is moving toward the
Murrr4er [49]

The velocity of the target and arrow after collision is 6.67m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Mass of arrow, mₐ = 415g

Speed of arrow, vₐ = 68.5m/s

Mass of the target, mₓ = 3.3kg = 3300g

speed of the target, vₓ = -1.1m/s (Because the target moves in opposite direction

Velocity of the target and arrow after collision, vₙ = ?

Applying the conservation of momentum,

mₐvₐ + mₓvₓ = (mₐ+mₓ) vₙ

415 X 68.5 + 3300 X -1.1 = (415+3300) X vₙ

28427.5 - 3630 = 3715 X vₙ

24797.5 = 3715 X vₙ

vₙ = 6.67m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the target and arrow after collision is 6.67m/s

__________________________ are made of rock or metal, which often collide with Earth
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Planets are bodies of rock or gas that are named after ancient gods.

Asteroids and Meteoroids are made of rock or metal, which often collide with Earth.

The terrestrial planets are more like the Earth.

The Juno spacecraft is exploring the planet Jupiter.

Explanation:

The planets and other stars in our solar system were similarly baptized. The planets were named after ancient gods. Other stars were baptized with names chosen by scientists or according to their peculiarity. Most of the planets were baptized by ancient Chinese astronomers, and later, by Babylonians. But over time different civilizations changed the names of the planets.

An asteroid is a smaller body in the solar system, usually on the order of just a few hundred kilometers. Meteoroids, in turn, are fragments of rocks that form from comets and asteroids. The luminous effect is produced when fragments of celestial bodies ignite in contact with the Earth's atmosphere due to friction. Both asteroids and meteoroids are made of rock or metal, which often collide with Earth.

The terrestrial planets are the most similar to the earth. These planets are those formed mainly by rocks and metals, have a solid surface without the incidence of rings, as is the case with Mercury, Venus and Mars.

The Juno spacecraft is exploring the planet Jupiter. This probe has already given us several unprecedented discoveries about the largest gas giant in the Solar System, in addition to sending us sensational images showing the complex and beautiful atmosphere of the planet.
