Use the inverse square law, thus if you move a distance of 3m away, the sound intensity decrease by 1/3^2= 1/9

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

(a) 11.8692‬ ohm

(b) 12.447 A

Explanation:

a) inductive reactance Z = L Ω

= L x 2π x F

= 45.0 x 10⁻³ x 2(3.14) x 42

= 11.8692‬ ohm

b) rms current

= 100 / 8.034

= 12.447 A

c) maximum current in the circuit

= I eff x rac2

= 12.447 x 1.414

= 17.6 A

A wire of resistance R is cut into ten equal parts which are then connected in parallel. The equivalent resistance of the combin

Greeley [361]

Answer:

<em>The equivalent resistance of the combination is R/100</em>

Explanation:

<u>Electric Resistance</u>

The electric resistance of a wire is directly proportional to its length. If a wire of resistance R is cut into 10 equal parts, then each part has a resistance of R/10.

Parallel connection of resistances: If R1, R2, R3,...., Rn are connected in parallel, the equivalent resistance is calculated as follows:

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{R_e}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}+...+\frac{1}{R_n}$

If we have 10 wires of resistance R/10 each and connect them in parallel, the equivalent resistance is:

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{R_e}=\frac{1}{R/10}+\frac{1}{R/10}+\frac{1}{R/10}...+\frac{1}{R/10}$

This sum is repeated 10 times. Operating each term:

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{R_e}=\frac{10}{R}+\frac{10}{R}+\frac{10}{R}+...+\frac{10}{R}$

All the terms have the same denominator, thus:

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{R_e}=10\frac{10}{R}=\frac{100}{R}$

Taking the reciprocals:

$R_e=R/100$

The equivalent resistance of the combination is R/100

How does reflection differ from refraction and diffraction?

shtirl [24]

Answer: Reflection is the only process in which the wave does not continue moving forward.

Explanation:

Reflection is a process in which the direction of the wave changes when it is exposed to a bounce off barrier. Refraction can be defined as the change in the direction of the wave when the wave passes through one medium to another. Diffraction is a process in which the direction of the wave changes when the wave passes through a particular opening near the barrier.
