The intensity of a sound wave at a fixed distance from a speaker vibrating at 1.00 kHz is 0.750 W/m2. (a) Determine the intensit
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

a)   I = 3.63 W / m² , b)   I = 0.750 W / m²

Explanation:

The intensity of a sound wave is given by the relation

         I = P / A = ½ ρ v (2π f s_{max})²

         I = (½ ρ v 4π² s_{max}²) f²

a) with the initial condition let's call the intensity Io

        cte = (½ ρ v 4π² s_{max}²)

         I₀ = cte s² f₀²

        I₀ = cte 10 6

If frequency is increase f = 2.20 10³ Hz

         I = constant (2.20 10³) 2

         I = cte 4.84 10⁶

let's find the relationship of the two quantities

        I / Io = 4.84

        I = 4.84 Io

        I = 4.84 0.750

        I = 3.63 W / m²

b) in this case the frequency is reduced to f = 0.250 10³ Hz and the displacement s = 4 s or

        I = cte (f s)²

        I = constant (0.250 10³ 4)²

 

        I = cte 1 10⁶

         

the relationship

        I / Io = 1

        I = Io

        I = 0.750 W / m²

A 1.0 kg ball falls from rest a distance of 19.6 m.
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

192.08J

19.6m/s

Explanation:

Since there will be no potential energy when the ball is on the ground, the change in potential energy is equal to the potential energy at the start when the ball is 19.6m above the ground.

PE=mgh

=(1)(9.8)(19.6)

=192.08J

v²=u²+2as, where v is the final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and s is distance. Initial velocity is 0 since it starts at rest.

v²=u²+2as

v²=0²+2(9.8)(19.6)

v=√384.16

=19.6m/s

A woman holds a book by placing it between her hands such that she presses at right angles to the front and back covers. The boo
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we need to make a free body diagram of the book and the forces that interact on it. In the picture below you can see the free body diagram with these forces.

The person holding the book is compressing it with his hands, thus exerting a couple of forces of equal magnitude and opposite direction with value F.

Now the key to solving this problem is to analyze the equilibrium condition (Newton's third law) on the x & y axes.

To find the weight of the book we simply multiply the mass of the book by gravity.

W = m*g

W = 1.3[kg] * 9.81[m/s^2]

W = 12.75 [N]

Explanation:

Carbon and boron is not an alloy.

An allow forms between metals and metals using their huge electron could.

Carbon is a non-metal, boron is a also a non-metal

Two non-metals combining together does not make an alloy.

Iron, nickel, aluminum  are all metals.
