If the amplitude of a sound wave is tripled, by what factor will the intensity increase?
1 answer:
Answer:
By a factor 9
Explanation:
The intensity of a sound wave is proportional to the square of the amplitude of the wave:
where
I is the intensity
A is the amplitude of the wave
In this problem, the amplitude of the sound wave is increased by a factor 3:
A' = 3A
So the intensity would change by
So, the intensity would increase by a factor 9.

Answer:
A) See Annex
B) Fq₁₂ = K * Q₁*Q₂ /16 [N] (repulsion force)
C) Fq₃₂ = K * Q₃*Q₂ /16 [N] (repulsion force)
D) Fq₄₂ = K * Q₄*Q₂ /32 [N] (attraction force)
E) Net force (its components)
Fnx = (2,59/64 )* K*Q² [N] in direction of original Fq₃₂
Fny =(2,59/64 )* K*Q² [N] in direction of original Fq₁₂
Explanation:
For calculation of d (diagonal of the square, we apply Pythagoras Theorem)
d² = L² + L² ⇒ d² = 2*L² ⇒ d = √2*L² ⇒ d= (√2 )*L
d = 4√2 units of length (we will assume meters, to work with MKS system of units)
B) Force of Q₁ exerts on charge Q₂
Fq₁₂ = K * Q₁*Q₂ /(L)² Fq₁₂ = K * Q₁*Q₂ /16 (repulsion force in the direction indicated in annex)
C) Force of Q₃ exerts on charge Q₂
Fq₃₂ = K * Q₃*Q₂ /(L)² Fq₃₂ = K * Q₃*Q₂ /16 (repulsion force in the direction indicated in annex)
D) Force of -Q₄ exerts on charge Q₂
Fq₄₂ = K * Q₄*Q₂ / (d)² Fq₄₂ = K * Q₄*Q₂ /32 (Attraction force in the direction indicated in annex)
E) Net force in the case all charges have the same magnitude Q (keeping the negative sign in Q₄)
Let´s take the force that Q₄ exerts on Q₂ and Q₂ = Q ( magnitude) and
Q₄ = -Q
Then the force is:
F₄₂ = K * Q*Q / 32 F₄₂ = K* Q²/32 [N]
We should get its components
F₄₂(x) = [K*Q²/32 ]* √2/2 and so is F₄₂(y) = [K*Q²/32 ]* √2/2
Note that this components have opposite direction than forces Fq₁₂ and
Fq₃₂ respectively, and that Fq₁₂ and Fq₃₂ are bigger than F₄₂(x) and F₄₂(y) respectively
In new conditions
Fq₁₂ = K * Q₁*Q₂ /16 becomes Fq₁₂ = K * Q²/ 16 [N] and
Fq₃₂ = K* Q₃*Q₂ /16 becomes Fq₃₂ = K* Q² /16 [N]
Note that Fq₁₂ and Fq₃₂ are bigger than F₄₂(x) and F₄₂(y) respectively
Then over x-axis we subtract Fq₃₂ - F₄₂(x) = Fnx
and over y-axis, we subtract Fq₁₂ - F₄₂(y) = Fny
And we get:
Fnx = K* Q² /16 - [K*Q²/32 ]* √2/2 ⇒ Fnx = K*Q² [1/16 - √2/64]
Fnx = (2,59/64 )* K*Q²
Fny has the same magnitude then
Fny =(2,59/64 )* K*Q²
The fact that Fq₁₂ and Fq₃₂ are bigger than F₄₂(x) and F₄₂(y) respectively, means that Fnx and Fny remains as repulsion forces
Answer:
The value of impulse of the net force on the ball during its collision with wall is
The value of average horizontal force that the wall exerts on the ball during the impact is F = 15000 N
Explanation:
Mass of the ball = 0.5 kg
Horizontal velocity = 20
Velocity after collision = - 10
(A). Impulse of the net force on the ball during its collision with wall is
I = 0.5 × (20 + 10)
This is the value of impulse of the net force on the ball during its collision with wall.
(B). The magnitude of average horizontal force
Where F = Force
I = impulse & t = time interval = 0.001 sec
F = 15000 N
This is the value of average horizontal force that the wall exerts on the ball during the impact.
