A sound with an intensity greater than_____ dB can cause damage to human ears.

1 answer:

5 0

85 decibels or higher can cause damage to the human ear. Decibels is the value of the measurement of sound. Hearing loss can be caused by noise coming from a loud sound. Noise induced hearing loss maybe permanent loss or temporary loss. Examples of activities that can give you a noise induced hearing loss is target shooting, listening to music in your earphones that have a high volume, and using lawnmowers.

Two electrons with a charge of magnitude 1.6×10-19 C in an atom are separated by 1.5×10-10 m, the typical size of an atom. What

Answer:

$1.02\cdot 10^{-8} N$ , repulsive

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electric force between two charged particles is given by Coulomb's law:

$F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$

where:

$k=8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^{-2}C^{-2}$ is the Coulomb's constant

$q_1, q_2$ are the two charges of the two particles

r is the separation between the two charges

The force is:

- repulsive if the two charges have same sign

- Attractive if the two charges have opposite signs

In this problem, we have two electrons, so:

$q_1=q_2=1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C$ is the magnitude of the two electrons

$r=1.5\cdot 10^{-10} m$ is their separation

Substituting into the formula, we find the electric force between them:

$F=(8.99\cdot 10^9)\frac{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19})^2}{(1.5\cdot 10^{-10})^2}=1.02\cdot 10^{-8} N$

And the force is repulsive, since the two electrons have same sign charge.

Rudik [331]

Answer:

1) P₁ = -2 D, 2) P₂ = 6 D

Explanation:

for this exercise in geometric optics let's use the equation of the constructor

$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q}$

where f is the focal length, p and q are the distance to the object and the image, respectively

1) to see a distant object it must be at infinity (p = ∞)

$\frac{1}{f_1} = \frac{1}{q}$

q = f₁

2) for an object located at p = 25 cm

$\frac{1}{f_2} = \frac{1}{25} + \frac{1}{q}$

We can that in the two expressions we have the distance to the image, this is the distance where it can be seen clearly in general for a normal person is q = 50 cm

we substitute in the equations

1) f₁ = -50 cm

$\frac{1}{f_2} = \frac{1}{25} + \frac{1}{50}$

$\frac{1}{f_2}$ = 0.06

f₂ = 16.67 cm

the expression for the power of the lenses is

P = $\frac{1}{f}$

where the focal length is in meters

1) P₁ = 1/0.50

P₁ = -2 D

2) P₂ = 1 /0.16667

P₂ = 6 D

lukranit [14]

Simple reaction time involves selecting a specific and correct response from several choices when presented with several different stimuli. This is very important because historically, this was the first indicators of intelligence pioneered by Francis Galton. To measure one’s intelligence is to know how he quick a person could respond to the stimulus with an already expected response wherein the stimulus is given unknown to the receiver. In other terms, the intelligence is measured on how quick a person could grasp certain concepts and how he could think fast and answer them correctly. <span> </span>
