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

1 answer:

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.)

A stone of mass m = 1.05 kg is released from a height of h = 2.1 m into a pool of water. At a time of t = 1.83 s after hitting t

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Explanation:

ignoring air resistance, the kinetic energy at water impact will equal the potential energy converted

½mv² = mgh

v = √(2gh)

v = √(2(9.81)2.1) = 6.4188... m/s

after impact, an impulse will result in a change of momentum.

There is a downward impulse due to gravity equal to the weight of the stone and an upward average force due to water resistance and buoyancy force.

FΔt = mΔv

(F - mg)Δt = m(vf - vi)

(F - mg) = m(vf - vi)/Δt

F = m(vf - vi)/Δt + mg

F = m((vf - vi)/Δt + g)

F = 1.05(((½(-6.4188) - -6.4188)/ 1.83) + 9.81)

F = 12.14198...

F = 12.1 N

An electric ceiling fan is rotating about a fixed axis with an initial angular velocity magnitude of 0.300 rev/s . The magnitude

Salsk061 [2.6K]

1) 1.2 m/s

First of all, we need to find the angular velocity of the blade at time t = 0.200 s. This is given by

$\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t$

where

$\omega_i = 0.300 rev/s$ is the initial angular velocity

$\alpha = 0.895 rev/s^2$ is the angular acceleration

Substituting t = 0.200 s, we find

$\omega_f = 0.300 + (0.895)(0.200)=0.479 rev/s$

Let's now convert it into rad/s:

$\omega_f = 2\pi \cdot 0.479 rev/s=3.01 rad/s$

The distance of a point on the tip of the blade is equal to the radius of the blade, so half the diameter:

$r=\frac{0.800}{2}=0.400 m$

And so now we can find the tangential speed at t = 0.200 s:

$v=\omega_f r =(3.01)(0.400)=1.2 m/s$

2) $2.25 m/s^2$

The tangential acceleration of a point rotating at a distance r from the centre of the circle is

$a_t = \alpha r$

where $\alpha$ is the angular acceleration.

First of all, we need to convert the angular acceleration into rad/s^2:

$\alpha = 0.895 rev/s^ \cdot 2 \pi =5.62 rad/s^2$

A point on the tip of the blade has a distance of

r = 0.400 m

From the centre; so, the tangential acceleration is

$a_t = (5.62)(0.400)=2.25 m/s^2$

3) $3.6 m/s^2$

The centripetal acceleration is given by

$a=\frac{v^2}{r}$

where

v is the tangential speed

r is the distance from the centre of the circle

We already calculate the tangential speed at point a):

v = 1.2 m/s

while the distance of a point at the end of the blade from the centre is

r = 0.400 m

Therefore, the centripetal acceleration is

$a=\frac{1.2^2}{0.400}=3.6 m/s^2$
