To develop this problem we will apply the concepts related to Sound Intensity. This can be defined as the power carried by sound waves per unit area in a direction perpendicular to that area. Mathematically it can be written as,

\Delta L = 10log(n)

\Delta L = Level Difference

n = Number of equal loud sound sources

n = 15

Therefore replacing we have,

\Delta L = 10 log (n)\\\Delta L = 10 log (15)\\\Delta L = 10*1.176\\\Delta L = 11.76dB

Therefore over 100dB the total difference intensity level would be

L_T = L_0 -\Delta L

Here,

L_0 = \text{ Total intensity}

\L_T = 100 -11.76

_T= 88.24dB

The intensity level generated by one engine is

L_T = 88.44dB

Two long, straight wires are separated by a distance of 32.2 cm. One wire carries a current of 2.75 A, the other carries a curre
Igoryamba

Answer:

a)\frac{F_1}{L}=1.95*10^-^5N

b)\frac{F_2}{L}=1.95*10^-^5N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Distance between wires d=32.2

Wire 1 current I_1=2.75

Wire 2 current I_2=4.33

a)

Generally the equation for Force on l_1 due to I_2 is mathematically given by

F_1=I_1B_2L

Where

B_2=Magnetic field current by I_2

B_2=\frac{\mu *i_2}{2\pi d}

Therefore

F_1=I_1B_2L

F_1=I_1(\frac{\mu *i_2*l_1}{2\pi d})L

\frac{F_1}{L} =\frac{4*\pi*10^{-7}*2.75*4.33*100 }{2*\pi*12.2 }

\frac{F_1}{L}=1.95*10^-^5N

b)

Generally the equation for Force on I_2 due to I_1 is mathematically given by

F_2=I_2B_1L

Where

B_1=Magnetic field current by I_2

B_1=\frac{\mu *I_1}{2\pi d}

Therefore

\frac{F_2}{L} =I_2(\frac{\mu *I_1*I_2}{2\pi d})

\frac{F_2}{L}=1.95*10^-^5N

What is the equivalent resistance between points A and C if R1=1430, R2=1350, R3=1100, R4=1350, and R5=1150.
Marianna [84]

R1 + R4 = 1430 + 1350 = 2780 = R14    series combination of R1 & R4

R2 + R5 = 1350 + 1150 = 2500 = R25

The circuit has been reduced to 3 resistors in parallel

R314 = 2780 * 1100 / (2780 + 1100) = 788  this is the resistance of the parallel combination of R14 and R3

R31425 = 2500 * 788 / (2500 + 788) = 599 which is the equivalent of the circuit  - you can also use the formula for 3 resistors in parallel but this seems simpler

Gravity is defined as: Select one: a. an apple falling from a tree toward the ground. b. ability to accomplish a job with the le
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

c. natural force or pull toward the earth

Explanation:

Gravity of the earth is the force of attraction that it naturally possesses to attract any mass.

An apple falls on the earth due to this force of gravity.

The force of gravity near to the surface of the earth is given as:

F=m.g

where:

m= mass of the body

g= acceleration due to gravity

The variation of the gravitational force with height is given as:

F'=m.g'

where:

g'=g\times (1+\frac{h}{R} )^{-2}

where

R = radius of the earth \approx64000\ km

Why is it important to know the direction of the force applied to a moving object and the direction in which the object is movin
ELEN [110]
C is correct.  The work-force relation is given by W=F·d, where F is force vector, and d is the displacement vector.  The dot is the dot product, which is a measure of how parallel the two vectors are.  It can be restated as the product of two vector magnitudes times the cosine of the angle between them.  Therefore work is a scalar, not a vector, since the dot product returns a scalar.

What makes an electric charge?
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Most electric charge is carried by the electrons and protons within an atom. Conversely, two protons repel each other, as do two electrons. Advertisement. Protons and electrons create electric fields, which exert a force called the Coulomb force, which radiates outward in all directions.
