Sound source A has a deciBel rating of 50 dB. Sound source B is 1000 times more intense. What is the deciBel rating of B

Physics

The decibel system of sound intensity operates by a logarithmic scale, meaning that sound intensity increases exponentially in relation to the decibel rating.

For decibels, the equation between intensity and the dB equivalent is:

dB = 10log(i),

where “i” is the intensity of the sound. The ten in front of the log means that an increase in ten dB results in a tenfold increase in sound intensity; for example, a 30 dB sound is ten times softer than a 40 dB sound.

In this case, a sound with a dB of 80 would be 1000 times more intense than a 50 dB sound, so the decibel rating of B is 80.

Hope this helps!

trapecia [35]

Answer:

ω=6684.51 rpm

Explanation:

r= 30cm= 0.3m

a= 15000gs (convert to m/s^{2}

1g = 9.8 m/s^{2}

a= 15000 *9.8 = 147000 m/s^{2}

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

147000 = \frac{v^{2} }{0.3}

147000*0.3 = v^{2}

44100 = v^{2}

√44100 = v

210m/s  = v

v=210m/s (linear velocity)

we will convert this to angular velocity

ω=\frac{v}{r}  

ω= 210/0.3

ω= 700 rads^{-1}

we will convert this to rev per minute

1rad per second = 9.5493 rev per minute

ω= 700*9.5493

ω=6684.51 rpm

A book with mass 2.3 kg sits on a table. What is the normal force on the
natita [175]

Explanation:

The table is level and there are no other forces on the book, so the normal force is equal to the weight.

N = mg

N = (2.3 kg) (9.8 m/s²)

N = 22.5 N
