To develop this problem we will apply the concepts related to Sound Intensity. This can be defined as the power carried by sound waves per unit area in a direction perpendicular to that area. Mathematically it can be written as,
= Level Difference
n = Number of equal loud sound sources
n = 15
Therefore replacing we have,
Therefore over 100dB the total difference intensity level would be
Here,
The intensity level generated by one engine is
Answer:
the force constant k = 2.369 N/m
Explanation:
Given that:
A type of cuckoo clock keeps time by having a mass bouncing on a spring, usually something cute like a cherub in a chair.
with period T = 0.500 s and a mass of 0.0150 kg, Then the force constant can be calculated by using the formula:
where;
T = time period
m = mass
k = force constant.
By making k the subject of the formula; we have:
replacing our given values , we have:
k = 2.369 N/m
