Answer:

Increase the distance by a factor of 6.

Explanation:

The intensity at a distance r is given by :

I=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}

Here,

P is power emitted

r is distance from source

It means that the intensity is inversely proportional to the distance from the source.

To decrease the intensity of the sound you are hearing from your speaker system by a factor of 36, we can increase the distance by a factor of 6. Hence, this is the required solution.

A 26.4 g silver ring (cp = 234 J/kg·°C) is heated to a temperature of 66.2°C and then placed in a calorimeter containing 4.94 ✕
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

The final temperature of the mixture = 64.834 °C.

Explanation:

Heat lost by the silver ring = heat gained by the water + heat transferred to the surrounding.

c₁m₁(t₁-t₃) = c₂m₂(t₃-t₂) + Q..............Equation 1

Where c₁ = specific heat capacity of the silver copper, m₁ = mass of the silver copper, t₁ = initial temperature of the silver copper, t₃ = final temperature of the mixture. c₂ = specific heat capacity of water, t₂ = initial temperature of water, m₂ = mass of water, Q = energy transferred to the surrounding.

making t₃ the subject of the equation,

t₃ = [c₁m₁t₁+c₂m₂t₂-Q]/(c₁m₁+c₂m₂)........................ Equation 2

Given: c₁ = 234 J/kg.°C, m₁ = 26.4 g, t₁ = 66.2 °C, c₂ = 4200 J/K.°C, m₂ = 4.92×10⁻² kg, t₂ = 24.0 °C, Q = 0.136 J.

Substituting into equation 2

t₃ = [(234×26.4×66.2)+(4200×0.0492×24)-0.136]/[(234×26.4)+(4200×0.0492)]

t₃ = (408957.12+4959.36-0.136)/(6177.6+206.64)

t₃ = (413916.48-0.136)/6384.24

t₃ = 413916.34/6384.24

Thus the final temperature of the mixture = 64.834 °C.

A commuter train passes a passenger platform at a constant speed of 40.4 m/s. The train horn is sounded at its characteristic fr
mihalych1998 [28]

(a) -83.6 Hz

Due to the Doppler effect, the frequency of the sound of the train horn appears shifted to the observer at rest, according to the formula:

f' = (\frac{v}{v\pm v_s})f

where

f' is the apparent frequency

v = 343 m/s is the speed of sound

v_s is the velocity of the source of the sound (positive if the source is moving away from the observer, negative if it is moving towards the observer)

f is the original frequency of the sound

Here we have

f = 350 Hz

When the train is approaching, we have

v_s = -40.4 m/s

So the frequency heard by the observer on the platform is

f' = (\frac{343 m/s}{343 m/s - 40.4 m/s})(350 Hz)=396.7 Hz

When the train has passed the platform, we have

v_s = +40.4 m/s

So the frequency heard by the observer on the platform is

f' = (\frac{343 m/s}{343 m/s + 40.4 m/s})(350 Hz)=313.1 Hz

Therefore the overall shift in frequency is

\Delta f = 313.1 Hz - 396.7 Hz = -83.6 Hz

And the negative sign means the frequency has decreased.

(b) 0.865 m

The wavelength and the frequency of a wave are related by the equation

v=\lambda f

where

v is the speed of the wave

\lambda is the wavelength

f is the frequency

When the train is approaching the platform, we have

v = 343 m/s (speed of sound)

f = f' = 396.7 Hz (apparent frequency)

Therefore the wavelength detected by a person on the platform is

\lambda' = \frac{v}{f'}=\frac{343 m/s}{396.7 Hz}=0.865m

Which student correctly identifies a similarity and a difference between vector quantities and scalar quantities?
jekas [21]

As per the question there are two physical quantities i.e scalar quantity and vector quantity.

A scalar is a physical quantity which requires only magnitude.It does not require any direction for it's complete specification.For instance we may take distance travelled,speed etc.


Unlike a scalar quantity,a vector quantity requires both magnitude as well as direction for it's complete specifications.For instance we may take displacement which is the shortest distance between two points,the velocity which is the speed in a given direction.


Hence a vector and scalar is differentiated by direction.

As per the question,the correct option will be the third option i.e C.

Carlita is right.As per her, both vector and scalar have magnitude,but only vectors have direction which is also true.
