Answer: Δβ (dB) = -13.1dB

Explanation:

The intensity of sound is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

I ∝ 1/r²

I₁/I₂= r₂²/r₁² .....1

When the listener increases his distance from the source by a factor of 4.49.

Then,

r₂/r₁= 4.49

From equation 1

I₁/I₂ = (4.49)²

I₁/I₂ = 20.16

I₂/I₁ = 1/20.16

The change in sound intensity in dB can be given as

Δβ (dB) = 10 log(I₂/l₁) = 10log(1/20.6) = -13.1dB

At what speed do a bicycle and its rider, with a combined mass of 100 kg, have the same momentum as a 1400 kg car traveling at 6

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Momentum of car

Given: Mass m= 1,400 Kg; V = 6.0 m/s

Formula: P = mv

P = (1,400 Kg)(6.0 m/s)

P = 8,400 Kg.m/s

Velocity of the rider to have the same momentum as a car.

Mass of rider and bicycle m = 100 Kg

P = mv

V = P/m

V = 8,400 Kg.m/s/100 Kg

V = 84 m/s

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

11.85 kg m/s

Explanation:

impulse = mass ( change in velocity )

= mass ( final velocity - initial velocity )

= 0.150 ( 32.0 - (-47.0))

= 0.150 ( 32.0 +47.0)

= 0.150 (79)

= 11.85 kg m/s

bixtya [17]

Answer:

Distance between centre of Earth and centre of Moon is 3.85 x 10⁸ m

Explanation:

The attractive force experienced by two mass objects is known as Gravitational force.

The gravitational force is determine by the relation:

$F=\frac{Gm_{1} m_{2} }{d^{2} }$ ....(1)

According to the problem,

Mass of Moon, m₁ = 7.35 x 10²² kg

Mass of Earth, m₂ = 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg

Gravitational force experienced by them, F = 1.98 x 10²⁰ N

Universal gravitational constant, G = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ Nm²kg⁻²

Substitute these values in equation (1).

$1.98\times10^{20} =\frac{6.67\times10^{-11}\times7.35\times10^{22}\times5.97\times10^{24} }{d^{2} }$

$d^{2}=\frac{2.93\times10^{37}}{1.98\times10^{20}}$

$d=\sqrt{1.48\times10^{17}}$

d = 3.85 x 10⁸ m
