What is the relationship between amplitude and volume?

Physics
1 answer:
MrRissso [65]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The sound moves in the form of waves. The amplitude is the distance between the highest and the lowest point of a wave.  In this way the amplitude indicates the amount of energy that a sound signal contains.

Intensity is the amount of acoustic energy that a sound contains. Intensity is measured in decibels. Volume is a measure of the energy that a signal carries, being a magnitude of intensity.

In this way it is possible to say that the energy of a signal is closely related to its amplitude, but its development over time is also important.

The tone or height is the quality that distinguishes between a high or low sound and a low or high sound.

Why do different atoms or molecules preferentially absorb different wavelengths of light?
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

The electrons in an atom can only occupy certain allowed energy levels. ... Only certain energy levels are allowed, so only certain transitions are possible and hence specific wavelengths are emitted when an electron drops to a lower energy level.

A man pushed the box with a force of 20 N. The mass of the box doubled, but he still pushed with a force of 20 N.
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Option (c) Acceleration is 1/2x the original acceleration

Explanation:

To know the the correct answer to the question, we shall determine the acceleration of the box in each case.

Case 1:

Mass (m) = m

Force (F) = 20 N

Acceleration 1 (a₁) =?

F = ma₁

20 = m × a₁

Divide both side by m

a₁ = 20 / m

Case 2:

Mass (m) = 2m

Force (F) = 20 N

Acceleration 2 (a₂) =?

F = ma₂

20 = 2m × a₂

Divide both side by 2m

a₂ = 20 / 2m

a₂ = 10 / m

Finally, we shall determine the acceleration of the box after the mass was doubled. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

Acceleration 1 (a₁) = 20 / m

Acceleration 2 (a₂) = 10 / m

a₂ : a₁ = 10 / m : 20 / m

a₂ / a₁ = 10 / m ÷ 20 / m

a₂ / a₁ = (10 / m) × (m / 20)

a₂ / a₁ = ½

Cross multiply

a₂ = ½a₁

Thus, the acceleration of the box after the mass was doubled is ½ times the original acceleration.

How do unbalanced forces acting on an object affect its motion when the object is at rest? What if it is moving?
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

It pushes it because an unbalanced force is pushing more newtons than something that isn't even moving. Even if it is moving, it depends which side is pushing/pulling the most force.

Suppose you are planning a trip in which a spacecraft is to travel at a constant velocity for exactly six months, as measured by
mylen [45]

Answer:

<em>I must travel with a speed of 2.97 x 10^8 m/s</em>

Explanation:

Sine the spacecraft flies at the same speed in the to and fro distance of the journey, then the time taken will be 6 months plus 6 months

Time that elapses on the spacecraft = 1 year

On earth the people have advanced 120 yrs

According to relativity, the time contraction on the spacecraft is gotten from

t = t_{0} /\sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} }

where

t is the time that elapses on the spacecraft = 120 years

t_{0} = time here on Earth = 1 year

\beta is the ratio v/c

where

v is the speed of the spacecraft = ?

c is the speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s

substituting values, we have

120 = 1/\sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} }

squaring both sides of the equation, we have

14400 = 1/(1 - \beta ^{2} )

14400 - 14400\beta ^{2} = 1

14400 - 1 = 14400\beta ^{2}

14399 = 14400\beta ^{2}

\beta ^{2} =  14399/14400 = 0.99

\beta = \sqrt{0.99} = 0.99

substitute β = v/c

v/c = 0.99

but c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

v = 0.99c = 0.99 x 3 x 10^8 = <em>2.97 x 10^8 m/s</em>
