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}}

How does the pupillary response prevent injury? What would happen without it?
Aleksandr [31]
Pupils dilate and constrict in order to allow an adequate amount of light to pass through the retina and vision. If there is not enough light and the pupils do not dilate, a small amount of light will pass to the retina and the vision will be damaged.

Light is incident on the left face of an isosceles prism; with an apex angle of 49o, such that the light exiting the right face
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

\mu = 1.645

Explanation:

By Snell's law we know at the left surface

\theta_i = 19^o

\theta_r = ?

\mu_1 = 1

\mu_2 = \mu

now we have

1 sin19 = \mu sin\theta_r

0.33 = \mu sin\theta_r

now on the other surface we know that

angle of incidence = \theta_r'

\theta_e = 90

so again we have

\mu sin\theta_r' = 1 sin90

so we have

\theta_r = sin^{-1}\frac{0.33}{\mu}

\theta_r' = sin^{-1}\frac{1}{\mu}

also we know that

\theta_r + \theta_r' = 49

sin^{-1}\frac{0.33}{\mu} + sin^{-1}\frac{1}{\mu} = 49

By solving above equation we have

\mu = 1.645

What is the acceleration of Karla's I Phone being thrown from Mr. Higley's classroom at 0m/s if it hits the wall 1.2 seconds lat
blagie [28]

The acceleration of Karla's I IPhone being thrown from Mr. Higley's classroom at 0 m/s will be 29.16 m/s²

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

The rate of velocity change concerning time is known as acceleration. According to Newton's second law, the eventual effect of all forces applied to a body is its acceleration.

The pace at which a body's velocity varies is represented by acceleration, which is a vector quantity.

The given data in the problem is given by ;

u is the initial speed =  0 m/sec

v is the final speed= 35  m/sec

t is the time interval= 1.2 second

a is the acceleration=? m/sec²

The formula for acceleration is;

\rm a=\frac{v-u}{t} \\\\ a= \frac{35-0}{1.2} \\\\ a= 29.16 \ m./s^2

Hence, the acceleration of Karla's iPhone being thrown from Mr. Higley's classroom at 0 m/s will be 29.16 m/s²

Nookie1986 [14]
<span>Chronological essays by the definition of a chronological meaning in order. There is an order in a specific writing. Like a history write up from a certain happening years ago.  It is different from procedural essays because these are essays who are giving instructions of certain set up to guide the person accordingly in doing something to make it more accurate. Like recipes, instructions in playing, etc. Example words that are used in chronological essays are first, second, third, fourth, fifth, next, after, then, lastly, finally, consequently, in addition, thus, therefore, however, etc.</span>
