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}}

A 0.500-kg glider, attached to the end of an ideal spring with force constant undergoes shm with an amplitude of 0.040 m. comput
Nikitich [7]
There is a missing data in the text of the problem (found on internet):
"with force constant<span> k=</span>450N/<span>m"

a) the maximum speed of the glider

The total mechanical energy of the mass-spring system is constant, and it is given by the sum of the potential and kinetic energy:
</span>E=U+K=  \frac{1}{2}kx^2 + \frac{1}{2} mv^2
<span>where
k is the spring constant
x is the displacement of the glider with respect to the spring equilibrium position
m is the glider mass
v is the speed of the glider at position x

When the glider crosses the equilibrium position, x=0 and the potential energy is zero, so the mechanical energy is just kinetic energy and the speed of the glider is maximum:
</span>E=K_{max} =  \frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2
<span>Vice-versa, when the glider is at maximum displacement (x=A, where A is the amplitude of the motion), its speed is zero (v=0), therefore the kinetic energy is zero and the mechanical energy is just potential energy:
</span>E=U_{max}= \frac{1}{2}k A^2
<span>
Since the mechanical energy must be conserved, we can write
</span>\frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2 =  \frac{1}{2}kA^2
<span>from which we find the maximum speed
</span>v_{max}= \sqrt{ \frac{kA^2}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{(450 N/m)(0.040 m)^2}{0.500 kg} }=  1.2 m/s
<span>
b) </span><span> the </span>speed<span> of the </span>glider<span> when it is at x= -0.015</span><span>m

We can still use the conservation of energy to solve this part. 
The total mechanical energy is:
</span>E=K_{max}=  \frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2= 0.36 J
<span>
At x=-0.015 m, there are both potential and kinetic energy. The potential energy is
</span>U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2 =  \frac{1}{2}(450 N/m)(-0.015 m)^2=0.05 J
<span>And since 
</span>E=U+K
<span>we find the kinetic energy when the glider is at this position:
</span>K=E-U=0.36 J - 0.05 J = 0.31 J
<span>And then we can find the corresponding velocity:
</span>K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
v=  \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 0.31 J}{0.500 kg} }=1.11 m/s
<span>
c) </span><span>the magnitude of the maximum acceleration of the glider;
</span>
For a simple harmonic motion, the magnitude of the maximum acceleration is given by
a_{max} = \omega^2 A
where \omega= \sqrt{ \frac{k}{m} } is the angular frequency, and A is the amplitude.
The angular frequency is:
\omega =  \sqrt{ \frac{450 N/m}{0.500 kg} }=30 rad/s
and so the maximum acceleration is
a_{max} = \omega^2 A = (30 rad/s)^2 (0.040 m) =36 m/s^2

d) <span>the </span>acceleration<span> of the </span>glider<span> at x= -0.015</span><span>m

For a simple harmonic motion, the acceleration is given by
</span>a(t)=\omega^2 x(t)
<span>where x(t) is the position of the mass-spring system. If we substitute x(t)=-0.015 m, we find 
</span>a=(30 rad/s)^2 (-0.015 m)=-13.5 m/s^2
<span>
e) </span><span>the total mechanical energy of the glider at any point in its motion. </span><span>

we have already calculated it at point b), and it is given by
</span>E=K_{max}= \frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2= 0.36 J

How do human population growth trends differ between developed nations and developing nations?
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Replacement-Level Fertility

Another important population characteristic that differ btw develop nation and developing nations is relates to births is replacement-level fertility. Replacement-level fertility is the fertility rate that will result in the replacement of the parents in the population. Again, in an ideal world, the human replacement-level fertility rate would be exactly two. This would mean that each couple would produce two offspring that would replace them in the population. If this occurred, then the human population would stay at a stable rate
