Answer:

0.0089 W/m^2

Explanation:

The intensity of a sound wave is given by

I=\frac{P}{A}

where

P is the power of the wave at the source

A is the area over which the sound wave propagates

In this problem, we have

P = 70.0 W is the power

We want to know the intensity at a distance of r = 25.0 m from the orchestra, so since the sound waves propagates radially, we must consider a spherical surface of radius r, so the area is

A=4\pi r^2 = 4\pi (25.0 m)^2=7850 m^2

Therefore, the intensity of the wave is

I=\frac{70 W}{7850 m^2}=0.0089 W/m^2

Why did the magnitude of the doppler shift increase as the velocity of the sound source increased?
jolli1 [7]
The Doppler effect happens as the result of a source of waves having relative motion to observers somewhere else consider that if something is producing a wave of wavelength W and it is moving relative to the waves then as the waves spread out it seems to chase one side and run away from the other side there for wavelengths produced on the scale it is chasing will be less than W on the side it is running away from the apparent wavelength will be greater than W so using this knowledge if the source of the Waves moves faster than it will chase one of the more closely and run away from the other more quickly there for making the short wavelength even shorter and the long wavelength even longer can turn you in and tell you have gone all over the speed of wave creating boom when dealing with sound this is what causes a sonic boom this lengthening of the long wavelengths and the shortening of the short wavelengths is referred to as being a greater Doppler shift

You move a 25 N object 5 meters. If it takes 8 s how much power did you do?
klasskru [66]

Answer:

15.625 watts

Explanation:

Recall that power is defined as the worked performed per unit of time:

Power = Work / time

The work done is Force * distance, so in our case the work is:

Work = 25 M * 5 m = 125 J

Then the power will be:

Power = 125 J / 8 sec = 15.625 watts

A student hangs a wood block from a spring. The student pulls the block downwards so the spring is stretched and holds the block
Murrr4er [49]
Kinetic energy because of the wood plank is just still and not moving it’s potential but since it’s asking which one it doesn’t have it doesn’t have kinetic energy cause it’s not moving

Which situation best describes the act of reducing? paying bills online instead of sending paper through the mail donating gentl
Ugo [173]
In my opinion, i think the first one is the best one since we're cutting down on paper wasted in mails when its better to do it online.
