A listener triples his distance from a source that emits sound uniformly in all directions. by how many decibels does the sound

intensity level change?

Sound intensity goes inversely as the square of the distance from the source. This is easy to understand if you think of the total sound energy spread out over the surface of a sphere with the source at the center. The surface area of the sphere goes as r^2, so the power density goes inversely as such.

The decibel change is simply

Change = 10 log10( (1/3)^2 ) = -9.54 dB

Is it more fun on a swing with low or high amplitude? Explain.
marusya05 [52]
A pendulum is an object hung from a fixed point that swings back and forth under the action of gravity. In the example of the playground swing, the swing is supported by chains that are attached to fixed points at the top of the swing set. When the swing is raised and released, it will move freely back and forth due to the force of gravity on it. The swing continues moving back and forth without any extra outside help until friction (between the air and the swing and between the chains and the attachment points) slows it down and eventually stops it.

Two boys are sliding toward each other on a frictionless, ice-covered parking lot. Jacob, mass 45 kg, is gliding to the right at
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

v=0.3381\ m.s^{-1} in the direction of motion of Jacob

Explanation:

Given:

mass  of Jacob, m_j=45\ kg

velocity of Jacob, v_j=8.08\ m.s^{-1}

mass of Ethan, m_e=31\ kg

velocity of Ethan, v_e=10.9\ m.s^{-1}

Now using the conservation of linear momentum for the case:

(When the two masses in motion combine to form one after the collision then they will move together in the direction of the greater momentum.)

(m_j+m_e).v=m_j.v_j-m_e.v_e

(45+31)\times v=45\times 8.08-31\times 10.9

v=0.3381\ m.s^{-1} in the direction of motion of Jacob as it was assumed to be positive.
