The intensity of a 70-dB whistle is quintupled. What is the new decibel level

Physics

hoa [83]4 years ago
7 0

Multiplying the power of any signal by 5 can be described as
an increase of  6.99 dB .

If the whistle blew at 70 dB initially, and its sound power became
multiplied by 5, and the whistle and the listener both stayed in
the same places, then the listener would tell you that the whistle
was now blowing at 76.99 dB .

(More likely, he would report "77 dB" as he held his ears and winced.)

Jason walks 20 m East, turns around and 20 m West, Finally, he walks 10 rn North. This takes 20 s. what is Jason's velocity​
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

0.5 m/s north

Explanation:

Take east to be +x, west to be -x, north to be +y, and south to be -y.

His displacement in the x direction is:

x = 20 m − 20 m = 0 m

His displacement in the y direction is:

y = 10 m

His total displacement is therefore 10 m north.

His velocity is equal to displacement divided by time.

v = 10 m north / 20 s

v = 0.5 m/s north

In a tape recorder, the tape is pulled past the read-and-write heads at a constant speed by the drive mechanism. Consider the re
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Torque decreases .

Explanation:

The tape is pulled at constant speed , speed v is constant , so there is

v = ω r where ω is angular speed and r is radius , As radius decreases , angular speed ω increases , So there is angular acceleration .

Let it be α . Let I be moment of inertia of reel .

Reel is in the form of disc

I = 1/2 m r²

I x α = torque

1/2 m r² x α =  torque

As the reel is untapped , its mass decreases , r also decreases , so torques also decreases .
