The diagram is missing; however, we know that the intensity of a sound wave is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source:
I(r)= \frac{1}{r^2}
where I is the intensity and r is the distance from the source.

We can assume for instance that the initial distance from the source is r=1 m, so that we put 
I= \frac{1}{r^2}= \frac{1}{(1)^2}=1
The intensity at r=3 m will be
I= \frac{1}{r^2}= \frac{1}{(3)^2}= \frac{1}{9}
Therefore, the sound intensity has decreased by a factor 1/9.

Answer:

   t = 0.24 s

Explanation:

As seen in the attached diagram, we are going to use dynamics to resolve the problem, so we will be using the equations for the translation and the rotation dyamics:

Translation:  ΣF = ma

Rotation:      ΣM = Iα ; where α = angular acceleration

Because the angular acceleration is equal to the linear acceleration divided by the radius, the rotation equation also can be represented like:

                    ΣM = I(a/R)

Now we are going to resolve and combine these equations.

For translation:     Fx - Ffr = ma

We know that Fx = mgSin27°, so we substitute:

         (1)                 mgSin27° - Ffr = ma  

For rotation:         (Ffr)(R) = (2/3mR²)(a/R)

The radius cancel each other:

        (2)                Ffr = 2/3 ma

We substitute equation (2) in equation (1):

                            mgSin27° - 2/3 ma = ma

                            mgSin27° = ma + 2/3 ma

The mass gets cancelled:

                            gSin27° = 5/3 a

                            a = (3/5)(gSin27°)

                            a = (3/5)(9.8 m/s²(Sin27°))

                            a = 2.67 m/s²

If we assume that the acceleration is a constant we can use the next equation to find the velocity:

                           V = √2ad; where  d = 0.327m

                           V = √2(2.67 m/s²)(0.327m)

                            V = 1.32 m/s

Because V = d/t

                             t = d/V

                             t = 0.327m/1.32 m/s

                             t = 0.24 s

What is the relationship between mass and acceleration on an object when the force is held constant?
Andreyy89

Answer:

according to newtons second law of motion,

Force = mass * acceleration

The acceleration of the body is directly proportional to the net force acting on the body and inversely proportional to the mass of the body.

I. e mass and acceleration are directly proportional to each other.

What would the weight of an astronaut be on Saturn if his mass is 68 kg and acceleration of gravity on Saturn is 10.44 m/s2? Ple
alex41 [277]

Here's the part you need to know:

       (Weight of anything) =

                 (the thing's mass)
times
                 (acceleration of gravity in the place where the thing is) .

                 Weight = (mass ) x (gravity) .

That's always true everywhere.
You should memorize it.

For the astronaut on Saturn . . .

                   Weight = (mass ) x (gravity) .

                
  Weight =  (68 kg) x (10.44 m/s²)

                        
      =    709.92 newtons .
__________________________________

On Earth, gravity is only  9.8 m/s².
So as long as the astronaut is on Earth, his weight is only

                                   (68 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)

                               =    666.4 newtons .

Notice that his mass is his mass ... it doesn't change
no matter where he goes. 

But his weight changes in different places, because
it depends on the gravity in each place.

Dr. Smith is conducting an experiment to determine if paintings of landscapes produce more peaceful feelings than abstract paint
skad [1K]

The option that could be the hypothesis for this experiment is that D. Abstract paintings may elicit feelings of stress as students try to determine the meanings of the paintings; therefore, abstract paintings may cause college students to report lower feelings of peace.

<h3>What is a hypothesis?</h3>

It should be noted that a hypothesis simply means the proposed explanation made on the basis of limited evidence.

From the information, Smith is conducting an experiment to determine if paintings of landscapes produce more peaceful feelings than abstract paintings.

Therefore, the option that could be the hypothesis for this experiment is that abstract paintings may elicit feelings of stress as students try to determine the meanings of the paintings; therefore, abstract paintings may cause college students to report lower feelings of peace.

Differentiate between sound waves and seismic waves?
algol13

The only real difference is that common seismic waves travel through the ground and sound waves travel through the air. If you had a pipe attached to granite and you were listening to it, you might detect both.
