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

Answer:

The table can be used to predict the properties of elements, even those that have not yet been discovered.  Columns (groups) and rows (periods) indicate elements that share similar characteristics. The table makes trends in element properties apparent and easy to understand. The table provides important information used to balance chemical equations. Atoms are important because they form the basic building blocks of all visible matter in the universe. There are 92 types of atoms that exist in nature, and other types of atoms can be made in the lab. The different types of atoms are called elements. Hydrogen, gold and iron are examples of elements comprised of unique types of a single kind of atom.

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surfac
matrenka [14]

Answer:

a) 6.1 m

b) 4.6 s

c) 1.326 m/s

d) 0.325 m

Explanation:

a) The wave length is the distance between 2 crests λ = 6.1m

b) The period of the wave is the time it takes from the lowest point to the next lowest point, which is twice the time it takes from the lowest point to the highest point = 2*2.3 = 4.6 s

c) The speed of the wave is the distance per unit of time, or wave length over period = 6.1 / 4.6 = 1.326 m/s

d)The amplitude A is half the distance from the highest point to the lowest point = 0.65 / 2 = 0.325 m
