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
1 answer:
masha68 [24]3 years ago
3 0

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!

Two people push on the same door from opposite sides as shown.
tangare [24]
The correct answer is
<span>c. one person exerts more force than the other so that the forces are unbalanced.

In fact, the door is initially at rest. In order to move the door, a net force different from zero should be applied, according to Newton's second law:
</span>\sum F = ma
<span>where the term on the left is the resultant of the forces acting on the door, m is the door mass and a its acceleration.

In order to move the door, the acceleration must be different from zero. But this means that the resultant of the forces acting on it must be different from zero: this is possible only if  the forces applied by the two persons are unbalanced, i.e. one person exerts more force than the other.</span>

2/27

Explanation:

The elk can not be eaten so we remove that from the probablity

so we have x/18

songbird = 4/18

mice = 6/18

4/18*6/18 = 2/27
