Prejudice has to do with the inflexible and irrational attitudes and opinions held by members of one group about another, while discrimination refers to behaviors directed against another group. Being prejudiced usually means having preconceived beliefs about groups of people or cultural practices.

Use this technique to find a formula for the intensity I of a sound, in terms of the sound level β and the reference intensity I

mezya [45]

The problem is basically asking us to find a way to find the sound intensity I, in terms dependent on the sound level and the reference intensity $I_0$ .For this purpose we can start from the unit used in the scale logarithmic decibel, that is

$\beta = 10log_{10}\frac{I}{I_0}$

Where

I = Acoustic intensity on the linear scale

$I_0 =$ Hearing threshold

Using the logarithmic properties of the exponents the above expression can be described as:

$(\frac{I}{I_0})^{10} = 10^{\beta}$

$I = I_0 10^{\frac{\beta}{10}} \righarrow$ that is the expression or technique to find the intensity of sound.

Is a bath tub renewable or not?

Irina18 [472]

The water being poured into the bathtub is renewable and can be recycled, filtered, and renewed. But, metaphorically, each time you use electricity you drain a little water from the "bathtub" or the electric grid.

A rock is thrown by applying a force of 2.50N while doing 6.00J of work. Over what distance was the force applied?

maksim [4K]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 2.40 \ meters}}$

Explanation:

Work is the product of force and distance, so the formula is:

$W= F \times d$

The work is 6.00 Joules, but

1 Joule (J) is equal to 1 Newton meter (N*m).
Therefore, the work of 6.00 J is equal to 6.00 N*m

The force is 2.50 Newtons.

The known values are:

W= 6.00 N*m
F= 2.50 N

Substitute the values into the formula.

$6.00 \ N*m= 2.50 \ N *d$

We are solving for distance, so we must isolate the variable, d. It is being multiplied by 2.50 Newtons and the inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by 2.50 N.

$\frac {6.00 \ N*m}{2.50 \ N}=\frac{2.50 \ N * d}{2.50 \ N}$
