Two blocks, joined by a string, have masses of 6.0 kg and 9.0 kg. They rest on a frictionless horizontal surface. A 2nd string,

attached only to the 9 kg block, has horizontal force = 30 N applied to it. Both blocks accelerate. Find the tension in the string between the blocks.

Answer:

Explanation:

30 N force is pulling total mass of 15 kg , so acceleration in the system of masses

= 30 / 15

= 2 m / s²

Let us now consider forces acting on 9 kg . 30 N is pulling it in forward direction . Tension T in the string attached to it is pulling it in reverse direction

so net force on it

30 - T

Applying Newton's law of motion on it

30 - T = mass x acceleration

30 - T = 9  x 2

30 - 18 = T

T = 12 N

Use this technique to find a formula for the intensity I of a sound, in terms of the sound level β and the reference intensity I
mezya [45]

The problem is basically asking us to find a way to find the sound intensity I, in terms dependent on the sound level and the reference intensity I_0.For this purpose we can start from the unit used in the scale logarithmic decibel, that is

\beta = 10log_{10}\frac{I}{I_0}

Where

I = Acoustic intensity on the linear scale

I_0 = Hearing threshold

Using the logarithmic properties of the exponents the above expression can be described as:

(\frac{I}{I_0})^{10} = 10^{\beta}

I = I_0 10^{\frac{\beta}{10}} \righarrow that is the expression or technique to find the intensity of sound.

Sarah bikes 15 miles in 70 minutes. Which is her average speed per minute?
valentina_108 [34]
15/70 =3/14 miles per minute = 0.21 miles a minute. One mile in about 5 minutes. Sarah is shifting, I think (faster than me)
