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

It takes 120 minutes for a man to ride his bicycle up the road to Alpe d'Huez in France. The vertical height of the climb is 1,1
Greeley [361]
First solve the potential energy of the biker. using the fomula:
PE = mgh
where m  is the mass of the object
g is the acceleration due to gravity ( 9.81 m/s2)
h is the height

PE = 96 kg ( 1120 m ) ( 9.81 m/s2)
PE = 1054771.2 J
then power = Work / time
P = 1054771.2 J / ( 120 min ) ( 60 s / 1 min)
P = 146.5 W

An electric filament lamp is connected to a power supply and switched on.
ladessa [460]
This is because of of the heating effect of a current. The glow is a result of current passing through the filament. The current experiences resistance as a result heat is generated. When resistance is at zero, there potential differences is not needed hence temperature generated will be at a constant.

MissTica

Answer: Tsunami.

Explanation :

Tsunami is the result of a sudden vertical offset in the ocean floor and is most often the result of plate movement on the ocean floor.

Tsunami is caused due to the displacement of a large volume of water like in an ocean. It consists of a series of waves. It destroys coastlines and coastal settlements. It is also known as a tidal wave.

So, the correct option is (b) Tsunami.
