Quadrupling the power output from a speaker emitting a single frequency will result in what increase in loudness (in units of dB

)
Physics
1 answer:
Leviafan [203]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

<em>6.02 dB increase  </em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Let us take the initial power from the speaker P' = P Watt

then, the final power P = 4P Watt

for a given unit area, initial intensity (power per unit area) will be

I' = P Watt/m^2

and the final quadrupled sound will produce a sound intensity of

I = 4P Watt/m^2

Increase in loudness is gotten from the relation

ΔL =  10log_{10} \frac{I}{I'}

where

I = final sound intensity

I' = initial sound intensity

imputing values of the intensity into the equation, we have

==>  10log_{10} \frac{4P}{P} =  10log_{10} 4 = <em>6.02 dB increase  </em>

A 15-µF capacitor and a 25-µF capacitor are connected in parallel, and charged to a potential difference of 60 V. How much energ
Alborosie

Answer:

Energy stored, E = 0.072 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Capacitance, C_1=15\ \mu F

Capacitance, C_2=25\ \mu F

These two capacitor are connected in parallel, and charged to a potential difference of, V = 60 volts

We know that in parallel combination of capacitor, the equivalent capacitance is given by :

C=C_1+C_2\\\\C=(15+25)\ \mu F\\\\C=40\times 10^{-6}\ F

The energy stored in the capacitor is given by :

E=\dfrac{1}{2}CV^2\\\\E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 40\times 10^{-6}\times (60)^2\\\\E=0.072\ J

So, the energy stored in the capacitor in this capacitor combination is 0.072 J.

If the range of a projectile's trajectory is six times larger than the height of the trajectory, then what was the angle of laun
zvonat [6]

Answer:

H = 1/2 g t^2    where t is time to fall a height H

H = 1/8 g T^2   where T is total time in air  (2 t  = T)

R = V T cos θ       horizontal range

3/4 g T^2 = V T cos θ       6 H = R    given in problem

cos θ = 3 g T / (4 V)           (I)

Now t = V sin θ / g     time for projectile to fall from max height

T = 2 V sin θ / g

T / V = 2 sin θ / g

cos θ = 3 g / 4 (T / V)     from (I)

cos θ = 3 g / 4 * 2 sin V / g = 6 / 4 sin θ

tan θ = 2/3      

θ = 33.7 deg

As a check- let V = 100 m/s

Vx = 100 cos 33.7 = 83,2

Vy = 100 sin 33,7 = 55.5

T = 2 * 55.5 / 9.8 = 11.3 sec

H = 1/2 * 9.8 * (11.3 / 2)^2 = 156

R = 83.2 * 11.3 = 932

R / H = 932 / 156 = 5.97        6 within rounding

The vacuum tube was replaced with what electrical component?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The vacuum tube was replaced with transistor.

Explanation:

  • The invention of semiconductor was very useful in making solid state transistor that allowed the production of small yet faster, cheaper, and more trusted and reliable computers.
  • These solid state transistor is so often used that, it nearly replaced all the use of transistor.
  • This replacement took place after the invention of semiconductor in the year around 1940.
  • Vacuum tubes also known as thermionic tubes are not used anymore in computers and electronics.

Which hormone is released in response to daily variations in light and tends to rise as night falls, peaks at midnight, and fall
hram777 [196]
Melatonin is a hormone being produced by small gland in the brain called pineal gland that helps control sleep and wake cycles. It is also called the sleep hormone because it gives signal that it’s time to sleep. People also used this hormone to adjust the body’s internal clock. It is the hormone that released in response to exposure to sunlight. When the sun sets and night falls, the pineal is activated and begins to vigorously produce melatonin. The amount of melatonin tends to rise as night falls, peaks at midnight, and falls again as the sun rises. It means that it produced more when darker and when the lighter it is; the less melatonin is produced.
