A middle-aged man typically has poorer hearing than a middle-aged woman. In one case a woman can just begin to hear a musical to

ne, while a man can just begin to hear the tone only when its intensity level is increased by 9.4 dB relative to the just-audible intensity level for the woman. What is the ratio of the sound intensity just detected by the man to the sound intensity just detected by the woman? (level just detected by man / level just detected by woman)

Answer:

8.7

Explanation:

I_m = Intensity of sound heard by man

I_w = Intensity of sound heard by woman

\beta = Intensity indecibels = 9.4 dB

Intensity of sound is given by

\beta=10log\frac{I_m}{I_w}\\\Rightarrow \frac{\beta}{10}=log\frac{I_m}{I_w}\\\Rightarrow 10^{\frac{\beta}{10}}=\frac{I_m}{I_w}\\\Rightarrow \frac{I_m}{I_w}=10^{\frac{9.4}{10}}\\\Rightarrow \frac{I_m}{I_w}=8.7

So, the ratio of sound intensity by the man to the sound intensity just detected by the woman is 8.7

Which transformation of energy occurs when a fan is turned on and the blades start to rotate?
Ksju [112]

Answer:

kinetic energy

Explanation:

A wind turbine transforms the mechanical energy of wind into electrical energy. A turbine takes the kinetic energy of a moving fluid, air in this case, and converts it to a rotary motion. As wind moves past the blades of a wind turbine, it moves or rotates the blades. These blades turn a generator

Evaluate the gravitational potential energy between two 5.00-kg spherical steel balls separated by a center-tocenter distance of
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

U = 8.30×10-⁹J

Explanation:

m1 = m2 = 5.00kg masses of the spheres

d = 15.0cm = 15×10-²m

r = 5.10cm = 5.10×10-²m

R = d + r = 15×10-² + 5.10×10-²

R = 20.10 ×10-²m = 0.201m

G = 6.67×10-¹¹Nm²/kg²

U = Gm1×m2/R = potential energybetween the spheres

U = 6.67×10-¹¹×5.00×5.00/0.201

U = 8.30×10-⁹J

a stone is dropped from the top of 50 m high tower simultaneously another stone is thrown upward with a speed of 20 m/s . calcul
Darina [25.2K]
'H' = height at any time
'T' = time after both actions
'G' = acceleration of gravity
'S' = speed at the beginning of time
Let's call 'up' the positive direction.
Let's assume that the tossed stone is tossed from the ground, not from the tower.

For the stone dropped from the 50m tower:

H = +50 - (1/2) G T²

For the stone tossed upward from the ground:

H = +20T - (1/2) G T²

When the stones' paths cross, their <em>H</em>eights are equal.

50 - (1/2) G T² = 20T - (1/2) G T²

Wow !  Look at that !  Add (1/2) G T² to each side of that equation,
and all we have left is:

50 = 20T  Isn't that incredible ? ! ?

Divide each side by 20 :

<u>2.5 = T</u>

The stones meet in the air 2.5 seconds after the drop/toss.

I want to see something: 
What is their height, and what is the tossed stone doing, when they meet ?

Their height is  +50 - (1/2) G T² = 19.375 meters

The speed of the tossed stone is  +20 - (1/2) G T = +7.75 m/s ... still moving up.
I wanted to see whether the tossed stone had reached the peak of the toss,
and was falling when the dropped stone overtook it.  The answer is no ... the
dropped stone was still moving up at 7.75 m/s when it met the dropped one.

If planet A is four times as far from the sun as planet C, then the period of its orbit will be__ times as long
Burka [1]
Within the system of the same star, the period of a planet's orbit is
proportional to the 3/2 power of its distance from the central body.
(Kepler's empirical third law of planetary motion, promoted to being
etched in stone by Newton's gravitation.)

(4) ^ 3/2 = <em>8 times</em> as long.
