The diagram shows waves of sound travelling through the air. By which factor is the sound intensity decreased at 3 meters?
SIZIF [17.4K]
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.

An object initially at rest experiences an acceleration of 1.90 ­m/s² for 6.60 s then travels at that constant velocity for anot
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

The magnitude of the object's average velocity is 9.74 m/s (9.80 m/s without any intermediate rounding).

Explanation:

Hi there!

The average velocity is calculated as the displacement of the object divided by the time it takes the object to do that displacement.

The displacement is calculated as the distance between the final position of the object and the initial position. <u>In this problem</u>, the displacement is equal to the traveled distance because the object travels only in one direction:

a.v = Δx/t

Where:

a.v = average velocity.

Δx = displacement = final position - initial position

t = time

So, let's find the distance traveled while the object was accelerating. For that, we will use this equation:

x = x0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · a · t²

Where:

x = position of the object at time t.

x0 = initial position.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

a = acceleration.

In this case, since the object is initially at rest, v0 = 0. If we place the origin of the frame of reference at the point where the object starts moving, then x0 = 0. So, the equation of the position of the object after a time t will be:

x = 1/2 · a · t²

x = 1/2 · 1.90 m/s² · (6.60 s)²

x = 41.4 m

The object traveled 41.4 m during the first 6.60 s.

Now, let's find the rest of the traveled distance.

When the velocity is constant, a = 0. Then, the equation of position will be:

x = x0 + v · t

Let's place now the origin of the frame of reference at the point where the object starts traveling at constant velocity so that x0 = 0:

x = v · t

The velocity reached by the object during the acceleration phase is calculated as follows:

v = v0 + a · t   (v0 = 0 because the object started from rest)

v = 1.90 m/s² · 6.60 s

v = 12.5 m/s

Then, the distance traveled by the object at a constant velocity will be:

x = 12.5 m/s · 8.50 s

x = 106 m

The total traveled distance in 15.1 s is (106 m + 41.4 m) 147 m.

Then the displacement will be:

Δx = final position - initial position

Δx = 147 m - 0 = 147 m

and the average velocity will be:

a.v = Δx/t

a.v = 147 m / 15.1 s

a.v = 9.74 m/s

The magnitude of the object's average velocity is 9.74 m/s (9.80 m/s without any intermediate rounding).

↪  A satellite was crashed into a comet (on purpose of course)

↪  When it crashed a huge amount of water gushed out

↪  It was over hundreds of thousands of litres

↪  These proved that most of the water came from Comets for the world's first oceans

Andrea's near point is 20.0 cm and her far point is 2.0 m. Her contact lenses are designed so that she can see objects that are
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

the closest distance that she can see an object clearly when she wears her contacts is 22.2 cm

Explanation:

Given the data in the question,

near point = 20 cm

far point = 2 m = 200 cm

Now, for an object that is infinitely far away, the image is at is its far point.

so using the following expression, we can determine the focal length

1/f = 1/i + 1/o

where f is the focal length, i is the image distance and o is the object distance.

here, far point i = 2 m = 200 cm  and v is ∞

so we substitute

1/f = 1/(-200 cm)  +  1/∞

f = -200 cm

Also, for object at its closest point, the image appear at near point,

so

1/f = 1/i + 1/o

we make o the subject of formula

o = ( i × f ) / ( i - f )

given that near point i = 20 cm

we substitute

o = ( -20 × -200 ) / ( -20 - (-200) )

o = 4000 / 180

o = 22.2 cm

Therefore, the closest distance that she can see an object clearly when she wears her contacts is 22.2 cm
