Answer: 3.84dB

Explanation:

Since person A is talking 1.2dB louder than B, we will have

A = 1.2B... (1)

Similarly, person C is talking 3.2 dB louder than person A, we have

C = 3.2A... (2)

From equation 1, B = A/1.2... (3)

To get the ratio of the sound intensity of person C to the sound intensity of person B, we will divide equation 2 by 3 to give

C/B = 3.2A/{A/1.2}

C/B = 3.2A×1.2/A

C/B = 3.2×1.2

C/B = 3.84dB

[A] Write an expression for the equivalent resistance of three resistors connected in parallel.[ no derivation needed]
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

1) R1 + ((R2 × R3)/(R2 + R3))

2) 0.5 A

3) 3.6 V

Explanation:

1) We can see that resistors R2 and R3 are in parallel.

Formula for sum of parallel resistors; 1/Rt = 1/R2 + 1/R3

Making Rt the subject gives;

Rt = (R2 × R3)/(R2 + R3)

Now, Resistor R1 is in series with this sum of R2 and R3. Thus;

Total resistance of circuit = R1 + ((R2 × R3)/(R2 + R3))

2) R_total = R1 + ((R2 × R3)/(R2 + R3))

We are given;

R1 = 7.2 Ω

R2 = 8 Ω

R3 = 12 Ω

R_total = 7.2 + ((8 × 12)/(8 + 12))

R_total = 7.2 + 4.8

R_total = 12 Ω

Formula for current is;

I = V/R

I = 6/12

I = 0.5 A

3) since current through the circuit is 0.5 and R1 is 7.2 Ω.

Thus, potential difference through R1 is;

V = IR = 0.5 × 7.2 = 3.6 V

A platinum ball weighing 100 g is removed from a furnace and dropped into 400 g of water at 0 degree C. If the equilibrium tempe
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

T = 1010 degree Celsius

Explanation:

mass of ball (Mb) = 100 g

mass of water (Mw) = 400 g

temp of water = 0 degree

specific heat of platinum (C) = 0.04 cal/g degree celsius

we can calculate the temperature of the furnace from the equation before

Mb x C x (temp of furnace (T) - equilibrium temp) = Mw x (equilibrium temp - temp of furnace)

100 x 0.04 x ( T - 10) = 400 x (10 - 0)

4 (T - 10) = 4000

T - 10 = 1000

T = 1010 degree Celsius
