A sound wave from a police siren has an intensity of 100.0 W/m² at a certain point; a second sound wave from a nearby ambulance
Irina18 [472]

The sound level of the sound wave due to the ambulance is 140.

<h3>What do you mean by sound?</h3>

In terms of physics, the sound is a vibration that travels through a transmission medium like a gas, liquid, or solid as an acoustic wave. Sound is the reception of these waves and the brain's perception of them in terms of human physiology and psychology. Only acoustic waves with frequencies between roughly 20 Hz and 20 kHz, or the audio frequency range, can cause a human to have an auditory sensation. These are sound waves with wavelengths ranging from 17 meters (56 ft) to 1.7 millimeters in the air at atmospheric pressure (0.67 in). Ultrasounds are sound waves with a frequency higher than 20 kHz that are inaudible to humans. Infrasound refers to sound frequencies below 20 Hz. Animals of different species have different hearing ranges.

A company is creating a new mosquito repellent, and needs to figure out how much is needed to stop mosquito bites. They find vol
Jlenok [28]

The independent variable is the different amount of repellent each person is given. This is because it does not depend on any variable. The dependent variable is what they are measuring, which would be the number of bites on each volunteer.
I hope this helps! :)

Cliff divers at Acapulco jump into the sea macias (fjm793) – Homework 3, 2d motion 19-20 – dowd – (WoffordWPHY11920 2) 4 from a
Stells [14]

Answer:

v = 7.67 m/s

Explanation:

Given data:

horizontal distance 11.98 m

Acceleration due to gravity 9.8 m/s^2

Assuming initial velocity is zero

we know that

h = \frac{gt^2}{2}

solving for t

we have

t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}

substituing all value for time t

t = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 11.98}{9.8}}

t = 1.56 s

we know that speed is given as

v = \frac{d}{t}

v =\frac{11.98}{1.56}

v = 7.67 m/s

The​ half-life of a certain radioactive substance is 12 hours. There are 19 grams present initially. a. Express the amount of su
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

(a) N=19\times e^{-\lambda t}

(b) 15 hours

Explanation:

half life, T = 12 hours

No = 19 g

(a) Let N be the amount remaining after time t.

Let λ be the decay constant.

\lambda =\frac {0.6931}{T}

The equation of radioactivity used here is given by

N=N_{o}e^{-\lambda t}

N=19\times e^{-\lambda t}

(b) N = 8 gram

Substitute the values in above equation

\lambda =\frac {0.6931}{12}

λ = 0.0577 per hour

So, 8=19\times e^{-0.577t}

e^{-0.0577t}=0.421

Take natural log on both the sides

- 0.0577 t = - 0.865

t = 15 hours

A 5.0-m long, 12-kg uniform ladder rests against a smooth vertical wall with the bottom of the ladder 3.0 m from the wall. the c
Semmy [17]

First establish the summation of the forces acting int the ladder

Forces in the x direction Fx = 0 = force of friction (Ff) – normal force in the wall(n2)

Forces in the y direction Fy =0 = normal force in floor (n1) – (12*9.81) –( 60*9.81)

So n1 = 706.32 N

Since Ff = un1 = 0.28*706.32 = 197,77 N = n2

Torque balance along the bottom of the ladder = 0 = n2(4 m) – (12*9.81*2.5 m) – (60*9.81 *x m)

X = 0.844 m

5/ 3 = h/ 0.844

H = 1.4 m can the 60 kg person climb berfore the ladder will slip
