The loudness or sound intensity of the roaring truck engine is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. it follows the law of squares that is 
r1^2 / r2^2 = L2/L1
8^2 / 4^2 = L2 / 100 dB
L2 =  400 dB

The answer to this problem is 400 dB increased frim 100 dB.

Answer:

C , E , A , D , B

Explanation:

We evaluate the accelerations for each case, using the formula: a = (vf - vi) / t

A)  a = (10.3 - 0.5 ) / 1 = 9.8 m/s^2  --> magnitude: 9.8 m/s^2

B)  a = (0 - 20) / 1 = - 20 m/s^2  -->  magnitude : 20 m/s^2

C)  a = (0.02 - 0.004) / 1 = 0.016 m/s^2 -->  magnitude : 0.016  m/s^2

D)  a = (4.3 - 0) / 0.4 = 10.75 m/s^2  -->  magnitude : 10.75 m/s^2

E)  a = (1 - 2) / 8.3 = - 0.12 m/s^2  -->  magnitude: 0.12 m/s^2

Then, comparing magnitudes from least to greatest:

C , E , A , D , B

A small ball of charge Q and mass m has a velocity v at infinity. It collides head-on with a ball of the same charge and mass wh
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of ball in motion = 1/2 m v² . Potential energy = 0

Let the minimum distance between the balls be d  on collision.

Electric potential energy at that time= k Q²/d , Here kinetic energy is converted into potential energy . So

1/2 m v² = kQ²/d

d =2 k Q² / mv²,= 18 x 10⁹ x Q²/ m v².
