Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

A transverse wave motion is in the form of crests and troughs.

The maximum displacement on either side from the mean position is called its amplitude.

The highest point on the wave is called crest.

The lowest point on the wave is called trough.

The distance between two consecutive crest or trough is called wavelength.

The intensity of the sound from a certain source is measured at two points along a line from the source. The points are separate
Artemon [7]

Answer:

The source is at a distance of 4.56 m from the first point.

Solution:

As per the question:

Separation distance between the points, d = 11.0 m

Sound level at the first point, L = 66.40 dB

Sound level at the second point, L'= 55.74 dB

Now,

L = 10log_{10}\frac{I}{I_{o}}          

I = I_{o}10^{\frac{L}{10}} = I_{o}10^{0.1L} = 10^{- 12}\times 10^{0.1\times 66.40} = 10^{- 5.36}      

L' = 10log_{10}\frac{I'}{I_{o}}

I' = I_{o}10^{\frac{L'}{10}} = 10^{- 12}\times 10^{0.1\times 55.74} = 10^{- 6.426}        

where

I_{o} = 10^{- 12} W/m^{2}

I = Intensity of sound

Now,

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

Similarly,

I' = \frac{P}{4\pi (R + 11.0)^{2}}

Now,

\frac{I}{I'} = \frac{(R + 11.0)^{2}}{R^{2}}

\frac{10^{- 5.36}}{10^{- 6.426}} = \frac{(R + 11.0)^{2}}{R^{2}}

R ^{2} + 22R + 121 = 11.64R^{2}}

10.64R ^{2} - 22R - 121 = 0

Solving the above quadratic eqn, we get:

R = 4.56 m

Okay please help me all my assignments are due tomorrow! I need to know 5 examples of all 6 simple machines that can be found in
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Inclined Plane – A ramp, for example a wheelchair ramp. Paired inclined planes make a pitched roof.

Wheel & Axle – On lawnmowers and wheelbarrow. Also, found in cabinet door glides and on appliances. Another common example – door knobs and even inside those locksets.

Lever – The bottle opener. Tools – the crowbar, and scissors or pliers. Double Levers – a door, a toilet seat, a broom.

Pulley – Old wood windows, some garage doors, workshop or garage lifting systems.

Wedge – The shim – used throughout the home in construction. For example, when installing doors, windows, cabinets, etc. Sometimes used to level furniture or chairs.

Screw – Like the wedge, above, well, you couldn’t build a house without screws. Certain types of plumbing valves. Plus, a jar lid is a popular example.

Now for deeper look at the simple machines found around our homes.

The hope this will be helpful.

An object has a mechanical energy of 1575 J and a potential energy of 1265 J.
laila [671]

6.  

A. 1575 - 1265 = 310J

B.  KE 1/2 MV^2

   V=√2·KE/M = √2(310)/12   V = 7.2mls

C.  PE = 1265 = mgh

h= 1265/mg = 1265/(12)(92)    h= 10.8m    

7.  

A.  KE  = 1/2 mv^2  0.5(5)(12)^2    KE = 360J

B.  PE = mgh = (5)(9.8)(2.6)  PE = 127.4J

C.  ME = KE + PE = 360 + 127.4   ME = 487.4J

Including them, the mass of the balloon was 1890 kg and had a volume of 11,430 m3 . The balloon floats at a constant height of 6
Monica [59]

Given :

The mass of the balloon was 1890 kg and had a volume of 11,430 m3 .

The balloon floats at a constant height of 6.25m above the ground.

To Find :

The density of the hot air in the balloon.

Solution :

We know,

Volume × ( Density of surrounding air - Density of hot air ) = mass

Putting given values in above equation, we get :

11430\times ( 1.29 - \rho_{hot \ air } ) = 1890\\\\\rho_{hot \ air } = 1.29 - \dfrac{1890}{11430}\\\\\rho_{hot \ air } =  1.125\ kg\ m^3

Therefore, the density of hot air in the balloon is 1.125 kg m³.

pendulum a is 20 cm long and has a 5 g mass on it. pendulum b is 30 cm long and has 10 g mass on it. which one has a faster peri
zhenek [66]

Answer:

a has a faster period

Explanation:

Period only depends on the length, irrelevant to the mass.

a has a shorter length, so has a small period, or faster.
