A person wears a hearing aid that uniformly increases the sound level of all audible frequencies of sound by 28.1 dB. The hearin

g aid picks up sound having a frequency of 250 Hz at an intensity of 3.30 10-11 W/m2. What is the intensity delivered to the eardrum?

Answer:

I₂ = 2.13 x 10⁻⁸ W/m²

Explanation:

given,

increase in sound level = 28.1 dB

frequency of the sound = 250 Hz

intensity = 3.3 x 10⁻¹¹ W/m²

Intensity delivered = ?

the difference of intensity level is give as

$\beta_2-\beta_1 = 10log(\dfrac{I_2}{I_o}) - 10log(\dfrac{I_1}{I_o})$

$\beta_2-\beta_1 = 10(log(\dfrac{I_2}{I_o}) -log(\dfrac{I_1}{I_o}))$

$\beta_2-\beta_1 = 10(log(\dfrac{I_2}{I_1})$

$28.1= 10(log(\dfrac{I_2}{I_1})$

$log\dfrac{I_2}{I_1}=2.81$

$\dfrac{I_2}{I_1}=10^{2.81}$

I₂ = 645.65 I₁

I₂ = 645.65 x 3.3 x 10⁻¹¹

I₂ = 2.13 x 10⁻⁸ W/m²

Spymaster Paul, flying a constant 215km/h horizontally in a low-flying helicopter, want to drop secret documents into his contac

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

$\theta = 49.56 degree$

Explanation:

Relative horizontal velocity of plane with respect to the car is given as

$v_r = v_p - v_c$

so we have

$v_p = 215 km/h$

$v_c = 155 km/h$

now we have

$v_r = 215 - 155$

$v_r = 60 km/h$

$v_r = 16.67 m/s$

Now time taken by the object to drop the vertical height is given as

$y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

$78 = \frac{1}{2}(9.81)t^2$

$t = 3.98 s$

so the distance of the car must be

$d = v_r\times t$

$d = 16.67 \times 3.98$

$d = 66.47 m$

Angle of the car with horizontal is given as

$tan\theta = \frac{y}{x}$

$tan\theta = \frac{78}{66.47}$

$\theta = tan^{-1}(1.17)$

$\theta = 49.56 degree$

What is the momentum of a 10kg ball moving at a velocity of 4m/s east?

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

40 kg.m/s

Explanation:

Momentum, p is defined as the product of mass and velocity of an object. Numerically, it is represented as, p=mv where m is mass of the object and v is the velocity in which the object moves, with keen observation on the direction before and after collision. Substituting 10 kg for m and 4 m/s for v then momentum, P=10*4=40 kg.m/s

Hannah drove 360 mi in 5.2 hours. What was her average speed?

ANTONII [103]

Her average speed would be 69.2 miles per hour

Explanation:
When you take the number of miles and divide it by the number of hours you get 69.2 (when rounded)
That is how fast she went per hour

Choose two forces and compare and contrast these forces. These must be different forces than used in the prior question. Provide

marin [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are 4 forces. These are 1) Gravity, 2) Weak Nuclear Force, 3) Electromagnetism, and 4) Strong Nuclear Force.

Order of strength from weakest to strongest: Gravity, Weak Nuclear Force, Electromagnetism, Strong Nuclear Force

Type of Range:

Gravity - Unlimited range

Weak Nuclear Force - Limited range

Electromagnetism - Infinite range

Strong Nuclear Force - Limited Range

Found in:

Gravity - Exists between all objects with mass

Weak Nuclear Force - Governs over beta decays like the emission of electron or positron

Electromagnetism - the attraction found between particles that are electrically charged

Strong Nuclear Force - Found in atoms and subatomic particles. It is responsible for holding the atoms' nucleus together.

Склянка с воздухом закрыта «пробкой» из мыльной пены.

alexira [117]

Склянка с воздухом закрыта «пробкой» из мыльной пены.
Определи, что произойдёт, если склянку частично погрузить в ёмкость с горячей водой?

Выбери правильный вариант ответа.
Мыльная пена будет перемещаться внутрь склянки.
Мыльная пена будет подниматься наружу.

Что произойдёт с давлением воздуха внутри склянки?
Выбери правильный вариант ответа.
Давление не изменится.

и дальнейшее объяснение произошедшего

Может показаться, что воздух в вашей бутылке - просто пустое пространство, но на самом деле это смесь газов. Сила, с которой отдельные молекулы отскакивают от внутренней и внешней стороны бутылки, называется давлением.
