The intensity level of a "Super-Silent" power lawn mower at a distance of 1.0 m is 100 dB. You wake up one morning to find that

four of your neighbors are all mowing their lawns using identical "Super-Silent" mowers. When they are each 20 m from your open bedroom window, what is the intensity level of the sound in your bedroom? You can neglect any absorption, reflection, or interference of the sound. The lowest detectable intensity is 1.0 × 10 -12 W/m 2.

Answer: The intensity level of sound in the bedroom is 80dB

Explanation:

Intensity of lawn mower at r=1m is 100dB

Beta1= 10dBlog(I1/Io)

100dB= 10dB log(I1/Io)

10^10= I1/Io

I1= Io(10^10)

10^12)×(10^10)= I1

I1=10^-2w/m^2

Intensity of lawn mower at r=20m

I2/I1=(r1/r2)^2 =(1/20)^2

I2= I1(1/400)

I2=2.5×10^-3W_m^2

Intensity of 4 lown mowers at 20m fro. Window

= 10dBlog(4I2/Io)

= 10^-4/10^-12

=80dB

Why do scientists not use US customary units when reporting their data?
Marianna [84]
From britaññica it said time and money. They didn’t have either to switch over from the industrial period and never did. Also from my own person reasoning i think most of the world uses not US customary, so to make stuff more accessible. hope this helps!

Assume we’re able to travel to your planet and decide to take some fireworks with us to celebrate our journey.
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

The horizontal distance covered by the firework will be \frac{1876.8}{g}

Explanation:

Let acceleration due to gravity on the planet be g, initial velocity of the firework be u and angle made with the horizontal be ∅.

writing equation of motion in vertical direction:

v_{y}=u_{y}+(-g) t

u_{y}= u\sin \phi

and v_{y}=0

therefore \frac{u\sin \phi }{g} =t

writing equation of motion in horizontal direction:

s_{x}=u_{x}t

u_{x} = u\cos \phi

therefore the equation becomes s_{x}=\frac{u^{2}   \sin \phi  \cos \phi}{g}

therefore horizontal distance traveled =\frac{u^{2}\sin 2\alpha \phi }{2g}=\frac{1876.8}{g}\frac{m}{s}

The sun continuously radiates energy into space in all directions. Some of the sun's energy is intercepted by the Earth. The ave
8_murik_8 [283]

B. The Earth radiates an amount of energy into space equal to the amount it receives.

Part of the solar energy is reflected by the Earth into space, this is known as albedo. The other part of the energy radiated by the Earth in the form of infrared radiation, is absorbed by the greenhouse gases, which cause most of this infrared radiation to be emitted into space. Therefore, the net flow of energy is zero.
