To measure specific heat, the student flows air with a velocity of 20 m/s and a temperature of 25C perpendicular to the length
of the tube, as illustrated below. In this time she heats the tube electrically, passing a current of 50 mA through the tube wall. The initial temperature of the tube is 25 C. After 10 min of heating, a thermocouple buried inside the tube wall measures a temperature of 31.2 C. The tube core is sealed and the heat lost from the internal surface of the tube is negligible during measurements. Furthermore, the tube is suspended on two thermally insulating supports. What is the specific heat of the tube?

Answer:
The decibel of the remaining pigs is 51.5 dB.
Explanation:
Decibel (dB) is a unit of measure of the intensity of a given sound.
Number of pigs = 199, noise level = 74.3 dB.
Given that the intensity (I) of the sound from the pen is proportional to the number of pigs (N), thus:
I N
I = kN
where k is the constant of proportionality.
⇒ k =
=
k = 0.3734
When 61 numbers of pigs were removed, the number of remaining pigs (N) squealing at their original level is 138.
Thus, the becibel level (I) of the remaining pigs can be determined by:
I = kN
= 0.3734 × 138
= 51.53 dB
The becibel level (I) of the remaining pigs is 51.53 dB.
