You recently purchased a home four blocks from the busy tollway. On a typical evening, the decibel level resulting from tollway

traffic is 62 dB at the location of your house. Determine the decibel level on the same evening at a house 1 block from the tollway (four times closer).

Answer:

74dB

Explanation:

Sound intensity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. Thus, a house four times closer hears a sound 16x more intense.

The dB scale is logarithmic, so 16x louder than 62 dB is equal to

62 + 10*log(16) ~= 62 + 12 = 74dB

What is the approximate mass of air in a living room 4.5m×3.4m×2.9m? the density of air is 1.29 kg/m3?
topjm [15]
First we have to calculate the volume of the living room:
V = L x W x H = 4.5 m * 3.4 m * 2.9 m
V = 44.37 m³
We know that Density = 1.29 kg/m²
D = m / V
m = D · V
m = 1.29 kg/m³ · 44.37 m³
m = 57.2373 kg ≈ 57.2 kg
Answer: The approximate mass of air in living room is 57.2 kg.

An electron with a speed of 1.7 × 107 m/s moves horizontally into a region where a constant vertical force of 4.9 × 10-16 N acts
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

 y = 77.74 10⁻⁵ m

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use Newton's second law

        F = m a

        a = F / m

        a = 4.9 10⁻¹⁶ / 9.1 10⁻³¹

        a = 0.538 10¹⁵ m / s

This is the vertical acceleration of the electron.

Now let's use kinematics to find the time it takes to move the

         x= 29 mm = 29 10⁻³ m

On the x axis

            v = x / t

            t = x / v

            t = 29 10⁻³ / 1.7 10⁷

            t = 17 10⁻¹⁰ s

Now we can look for vertical distance at this time.

            y = v_{oy} t + ½ a t²

            y = 0 + ½ 0.538 10¹⁵ (17 10⁻¹⁰)²

            y = 77.74 10⁻⁵ m
