To solve this problem, we use the formula:

I100 / I1 = [P / 4π(100m)^2] / [P / 4π(1m)^2]

I100 / I1 = 1 / 100^2

I100 / I1 = 10^-4

 

Therefore the change in intensity from 1m to 100m in decibels is:

B100 – B1 = 10 log(10^-4) dB = -40 dB

 

So the intensity at 100m is calculated as:

B100 = B1 – 40 dB = 140 dB – 40 dB = 100 dB

 

Answer:

100 dB

The intensity of the sound produced due to the firecracker at the distance of 100\text{ m} is \fbox{\begin\\100\text{ dB}\end{minispace}}.

Further Explanation:

The vibration, produced in the medium, which travels as an wave of pressure or density through a medium is known as sound. The sound is a longitudinal wave and it requires a medium for its propagation.  

Given:

The distance between the place where firecracker is set off by a child and the family house is 100\text{ m}.  

The intensity of the sound produced by the firecracker at the distance 1\text{ m} is140\text{ dB}.

Concept:

The intensity of the sound wave is defined as the power carried by the sound waves in the direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation per unit time.

The intensity of the sound wave is:

\fbox{\begin\\I=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}\end{minispace}}                                                        ...... (1)

Here, I is the intesnity of the sound wave, P is the power carried by the sound wave and r is the distance between source and the listener.

The intensity of the sound in decible at the house is:

\fbox{\begin\\\beta _{100}=\beta _{1}+10\log \dfrac{I_{100}}{I_{1}}\end{minispace}} ...... (2)

Here, \beta _{100} is the intensity of the sound at the distance of 100\text{ m}, \beta _{1} is the intensity of sound produced by the firecracker at the distance of 1\text{ m}, I_{100} is the intensity of sound produced by firecracker at 100\text{ m} and I_{1} is the intensity of sound produced by firecracker at 1\text{ m}.

The ratio of the intensity of sound at distance 100\text{ m} and 1\text{ m} is:

\fbox{\begin\\\dfrac{{{I_{100}}}}{{{I_1}}}=\frac{{r_1^2}}{{r_2^2}}\end{minispace}}                                                                                     …… (3)

Calculation:

Substitute the values in equation (3).

\begin{aligned}\frac{{{I_{100}}}}{{{I_1}}}&=\frac{{{{\left( 1 \right)}^2}}}{{{{\left( {100} \right)}^2}}}\\&={10^{ - 4}}\\\end{aligned}

Substitute the values in equation (2).

\begin{aligned}{\beta _{100}}&=140\,{\text{dB}} - 40\,{\text{dB}} \\&=100\,{\text{dB}}\\\end{aligned}.

Thus, the intensity of the sound produced due to the firecracker at the distance of 100\text{ m} is \fbox{\begin\\100\text{ dB}\end{minispace}}

Un coche inicia un viaje de 450 km a las ocho de la mañana con una velocidad media de 90 km/h. ¿A qué hora llegará a su destino?
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Llegara a su destino a la 1:00 pm

Explanation:

Si el coche va a 90 km/h buscamos un numero q al multiplicarlo por 90 nos de 450. Entonces 90×5 = 450, si hacemos la cuenta desde las ocho de la mañana mas las 5 horas del viaje terminaria llegando a su destino a la 1:00 pm.

Need help solving this question.
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

See the answers below.

Explanation:

to solve this problem we must make a free body diagram, with the forces acting on the metal rod.

i)

The center of gravity of the rod is concentrated in half the distance, that is, from the end of the bar to the center there is 40 [cm]. This can be seen in the attached free body diagram.

We have only two equilibrium equations, a summation of forces on the Y-axis equal to zero, and a summation of moments on any point equal to zero.

For the summation of forces we will take the forces upwards as positive and the negative forces downwards.

ΣF = 0

-15+T-W=0\\T-W=15

Now we perform a sum of moments equal to zero around the point of attachment of the string with the metal bar. Let's take as a positive the moment of the force that rotates the metal bar counterclockwise.

ii) In the free body diagram we can see that the force acts at 18 [cm] of the string.

ΣM = 0

(15*9) - (18*W) = 0\\135 = 18*W\\W = 7.5 [N]

A quantity that has direction as well as size is a scalar.<br><br><br> True or False
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

A quantity that does not depend on the direction is called a scalar quantity. Vector quantities have two characteristics, a magnitude, and a direction. Scalar quantities have only a magnitude. When comparing two vector quantities of the same type, you have to compare both the magnitude and the direction.

Scalar quantities only have magnitude (size). Scalar quantities include distance...

A quantity that is specified by both size and direction is a vector. Displacement includes both size and direction and is an example of a vector. However, distance is a physical quantity that does not include a direction and isn't a vector.

Explanation:

hope this helps...
