The noise level coming from a pig pen with

Physics
1 answer:
sweet [91]3 years ago
6 0

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    \alpha  N

                       I = kN

where k is the constant of proportionality.

⇒                    k = \frac{I}{N}

                         = \frac{74.3}{199}

                      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.

An airplane starts from rest at the end of a runway and accelerates at a constant rate. In the first second, the airplane travel
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

v=4.44\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

Given that the airplane starts from the rest (this is initial velocity equals to zero)  and accelerates at a constant rate, position can be described like this: x=v_{0}t +\frac{1}{2} at^{2} where x is the position, t is the time a is the acceleration and v_{0} is initial velocity. In this way acceleration can be found. a=\frac{2(x-v_{0}t) }{t^{2} } =\frac{2(1.11m-0)}{1s^{2} } =2.22\frac{m}{s^{2} }.

Now we are able to found velocity at any time with the formula: v=v_{0} +at = 0\frac{m}{s} +(2.22\frac{m}{s^{2}}.2s)=4.44\frac{m}{s}

you know that there are 1609 meter in a mile. the number of feet in a mile is 5280. what is the speed snail from problem 7 per m
Zanzabum

Answer:

We know that 1 meter = 100 centimeters, and 1 foot = 12 inches.

So  (1,609 meters) x (100 centimeters/meter)  =  (5,280 feet) x (12 inches/foot)

The second fraction on each side of the equation is equal to ' 1 ', because

the numerator is equal to the denominator, so sticking it in there doesn't

change the value of that side of the equation.  But now we can cancel some

units,and wind up with the units we need.

  (1,609 meters) x (100 centimeters/meter)  =  (5,280 feet) x (12 inches/foot)

        (1,609 x100) centimeters  =  (5,280 x 12) inches

            160,900 centimeters  =  63,360 inches

Divide each side by  63,360 :        2.54 centimeters =  1 inch

What is the centripetal force that would be required to keep a 4.0 kg mass moving in a horizontal circle with a radius of 0.80 m
KIM [24]

Answer:

D. 1.8 × 102 newtons radially inward

Explanation:

The magnitude of the centripetal force is given by:

F=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the tangential speed

r is the radius of the circular trajector

In this problem, we have m = 4.0 kg, v = 6.0 m/s and r = 0.80 m, therefore substituting into the equation we get

F=(4.0 kg)\frac{(6.0 m/s)^2}{0.80 m}=180 N

The centripetal force is the force that keeps the object in a circular trajectory, so it is a force that is always directed inward (towards the centre of the circular path) and radially. Therefore, the correct answer is

D. 1.8 × 102 newtons radially inward

Several light bulbs, each of resistance 1.5 Ω, are connected in a series across a 120 V source of emf. If the current through th
Leni [432]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

40 light bulbs

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

The total resistance of components or bulbs in series is given as the sum of resistance of all the components.

Thus; if there are bulbs in series each with a resistance of 1.5 Ω, the the total resistance will be; 1.5nΩ

From the ohms law;

V = IR , where V is the voltage, I is the current and R is the resistor.

Thus; R = V/i

         R = 120/2

            = 60 Ω

But, there are n bulbs each with 1.5 Ω; thus there are;

n = 60/1.5

<u>  = 40 Bulbs </u>
