The threshold of hearing is defined as the minimum discernible intensity of the sound. It is approximately 10−12w/m2. Find the

distance d from the car at which the sound from the stereo can still be discerned. Assume that the windows are rolled down and that each speaker actually produces 0.06 w of sound

Answer:

The distance d from the car at which the sound from the stereo can still be discerned = 97720.5 m

Explanation:

Sound intensity heard at distance is related to the distance with the relation = (power of sound at the source)/(surface area of the wall of an imaginary sphere at the distance in question)

I = P/4πd²

Assuming the car has 2 speakers,

P = 0.06 W × 2 = 0.12 W

d = ?

For the intensity of the least discernible sound,

I = 10⁻¹² W/m²

10⁻¹² = 0.12/4πd²

d = 97720.5 m

A racecar driver on a flat racetrack steps on the gas, changing her velocity from 10 m/sec to 30 m/sec in 5 seconds. What is the
erastova [34]

Answer:

4m/s2

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

U (initial velocity) = 10m/s

V (final velocity) = 30m/s

t (time) = 5secs

a (acceleration) =?

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time. It is represented mathematically as:

a = (V - U)/t

Now, with this equation i.e

a = (V - U)/t, we can calculate the acceleration of the race car as follow:

a = (V - U)/t

a = (30 - 10)/5

a = 20/5

a = 4m/s2

Therefore, the acceleration of the race car is 4m/s2

Which statement BEST describes acceleration?
Mashutka [201]
C) Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object. Velocity is the speed and direction of an object so acceleration is used to describe the rate of change. I hope this helps!!
