Answer:

At the maximum height

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its position in the gravitational field.

Mathematically, it is given by:

PE=mgh

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height of the object relative to the ground

From the formula, we see that the potential energy is directly proportional to the height of the object above the ground: therefore, the larger the value of h, the larger the potential energy of the object.

Therefore, the object has the maximum potential energy when it is at the highest position above the ground.

rjkz [21]

Answer:

<u>Part A</u>

I = 1.4 mW/m²  

<u>Part B</u>

β = 91.46 dB

Explanation:

<u>Part A</u>

Sound intensity is the power per unit area of sound waves in a direction perpendicular to that area. Sound intensity is also called acoustic intensity.

For a spherical sound wave, the sound intensity is given by;

                                            I = \frac{P}{A}

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

Where;

P is the source of power in watts (W)

I is the intensity of the sound in watt per square meter (W/m2)

r is the distance r away

Given:

P = 34 W,

A = 1.0 cm²

r = 44 m

The sound intensity at the position of the microphone is calculated to be;

                                     I = \frac{34}{4\pi (44)^{2}}

                                     I = \frac{34}{4\pi (44)^{2}}

                                     I = 0.0013975 W/m²

                                 ≈  I = 0.0014 W/m² = 1.4 × 10⁻³ W/m²

                                     I = 1.4 mW/m²

The sound intensity at the position of the microphone is 1.4 mW/m².

<u>Part B</u>

Sound intensity level or acoustic intensity level is the level of the intensity of a sound relative to a reference value.  It is a a logarithmic quantity. It is denoted by β and expressed in nepers, bels, or decibels.

Sound intensity level is calculated as;  

                                    β = 10log_{10}\frac{I}{I_{0}}  dB

Where,

β is the Sound intensity level in decibels (dB)

I is the sound intensity;

I₀ is the reference sound intensity;

By pluging-in, I₀ is 1.0 × 10⁻¹² W/m²

           ∴        β = 10log_{10}\frac{1.4 * 10^{-3} W/m^{2}}{1.0 * 10^{-12} W/m^{2}}

                      β = 10log_{10} (1.4 * 10^{9})

                      β = 91.46 dB

The sound intensity level at the position of the microphone is 91.46 dB.

In which one of the following situations does a car have a WESTWARD acceleration? The car travels westward and slows down. The c
DENIUS [597]

Explanation:

Let east direction is negative and west direction is positive. The acceleration of an object is given by :

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}

Where

v is the final speed

u is the initial speed

t is the time taken

As the car decelerates, the final speed of the car is less as compared to the initial speed. As a result, its acceleration is negative. It means the car travels eastward and slows down. Hence, this is the required solution.
