A sound source emits 20.0 W of acoustical power spread equally in all directions. The threshold of hearing is 1.0 × 10-12 W/m2.

C_9. What is the sound intensity 30.0 m (in W/m2 ) from the source?

Answer:

0.0018 W/m²

Explanation:

Power and intensity are related as:

I=\frac{P}{4\pi r^2}

P=  20.0 W (given)

r = 30.0 m (given)

I=\frac{20.0}{4\pi(30.0)^2}=0.0018 W/m^2

Intensity in decibels:

I(dB)=10log\frac{I}{I_o}\\=10log\frac{0.0018}{10^{-12}}=92.5 dB

A man pushes a lawn mower on a level lawn with a force of 195 N. If 37% of this force is directed downward, how much work is don
densk [106]

Answer:

W = 1032.6 J

Explanation:

Net force by which man push the lawn mower is given as

F = 195 N

now it is given that 37% of this force is vertically downwards

so we will have

F_y = 0.37 \times 195

F_y = 72.15 N

now we also know that

F_x^2 + F_y^2 = F^2

here we have

F_x^2 + 72.15^2 = 195^2

F_x = 181.2 N

Now work done by this force to move the lawn mower is given as

W = F_x . d

W = (181.2)(5.7 m)

W = 1032.6 J

How do Newton's laws of motion explain why it is important to keep the ice smooth on a hockey rink so that players can
lord [1]

Answer:

I'm not sure..but please refer to your teacher later.

Answer: Based on Newton's First law of motion (where inertia is involved), smooth ice increases the forceused to accelerate the hockey puck.

Explanation;

  • smooth ice reduces the resistances between the surface of the figure skates and the ice itself.
  • based on inertia theory ; the heavier the weight, the larger the inertia.. which explains it takes alot of force to move a heavier object than the lighter ones.. it also hard to *stop* the motion of heavier objects than the lighter ones.
  • now let's look at the design of the player shoe itself, they have a sharp blade at the bottom of the figure stakes.. which takes us to the law of the force.. the smaller the surface area, the more forces acting on it. So, players force (weight, F= mg) acts on the tip of the blade and on the ice
  • high inertia (run fast) and high force (attack opponent and pass puck) enables them to perform well in playing hockey
  • Thus if there's no resistance and the inertia of the player is high then they could run and pass the puck quickly
