A brand of earplugs reduces the sound intensity level by 27 dB.By what factor do these earplugs reduce the acoustic intensity?

Physics
1 answer:
Fofino [41]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

27dB = 2.7 B

So I / I₀ = 10⁻²°⁷ ,  I₀ is intensity of main sound and I is intensity after reduction.

= 1.99 X 10⁻³

So intensity will reduce by 1.99 X 10⁻³  .

A wheel that is rotating at 33.3 rad/s is given an angular acceleration of 2.15 rad/s 2. Through what angle has the wheel turned
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The angle through which the wheel turned is 947.7 rad.

Explanation:

initial angular velocity, \omega _i = 33.3 rad/s

angular acceleration, α = 2.15 rad/s²

final angular velocity, \omega_f = 72 rad/s

angle the wheel turned, θ = ?

The angle through which the wheel turned can be calculated by applying the following kinematic equation;

\omega_f^2 = \omega_i^2 + 2\alpha \theta\\\\\theta = \frac{\omega_f^2\   -\  \omega_i^2}{2\alpha } \\\\\theta = \frac{(72)^2\   -\  (33.3)^2}{2(2.15)}\\\\\theta = 947.7 \ rad

Therefore, the angle through which the wheel turned is 947.7 rad.

Suppose your friend claims to have discovered a mysterious force in nature that acts on all particles in some region of space. H
kirill [66]

Answer:

             U = 1 / r²

Explanation:

In this exercise they do not ask for potential energy giving the expression of force, since these two quantities are related

             

         F = - dU / dr

this derivative is a gradient, that is, a directional derivative, so we must have

          dU = - F. dr

the esxresion for strength is

         F = B / r³

let's replace

          ∫ dU = - ∫ B / r³  dr

in this case the force and the displacement are parallel, therefore the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product

let's evaluate the integrals

            U - Uo = -B (- / 2r² + 1 / 2r₀²)

To complete the calculation we must fix the energy at a point, in general the most common choice is to make the potential energy zero (Uo = 0) for when the distance is infinite (r = ∞)

             U = B / 2r²

we substitute the value of B = 2

             U = 1 / r²

Which of the following is a characteristic of a mixture
BARSIC [14]
I believe you forgot to add the choices. I will tell you some of the characteristics of mixtures and I hope you find one of them in the choices you have.

A mixture is a physical combination between two or more elements. No chemical reaction is involved in the formation of mixtures.
The components of the mixture can be separated using physical methods such as filtration, boiling and condensation.
Examples of mixtures include mixture of sugar and water or mixture of salt and sugar.
