Sound level B in decibels is defined as

Physics
1 answer:
Lelechka [254]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The approximate combined sound  intensity is I_{T}=1.1\times10^{-4}W/m^{2}

Explanation:

The decibel  scale intensity for busy traffic is 80 dB. so intensity will be

10log(\frac{I_{1}}{I_{0}} )=80, therefore I_{1}=1\times10^{8}I_{0}=1\times10^{8} * 1\times10^{-12}W/m^{2}=1\times10^{-4}W/m^{2}

In the same way for the loud conversation having a decibel intensity of 70 dB.

10log(\frac{I_{2}}{I_{0}} )=70, therefore I_{2}=1\times10^{7}I_{0}=1\times10^{7} * 1\times10^{-12}W/m^{2}=1\times10^{-5}W/m^{2}

Finally we add both of them I_{T}=I_{1}+I_{2}=1\times10^{-4}W/m^{2}+1\times10^{-5}W/m^{2}=1.1\times10^{-4}W/m^{2}, is the approximate combined sound  intensity.

Which statement correctly describes sound waves
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

Sound waves are longitudinal waves

Explanation:

Sound waves are the longitudinal waves. In longitudinal waves, the particles of the wave move parallel to the direction of propagation of waves.

It moves in the form of compression and rarefaction. When the particles are compact in a space the compression occurs while when they far apart form each other rarefaction occurs.

What is the kinetic energy of a hammer that starts from rest and decreases its potential energy by 10 kJ?
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

final kinetic energy of the hammer is 10 kJ

Explanation:

As we know that there is no non conservative force on the system

So here we can use the theory of mechanical energy conservation

So we will have

\Delta K + \Delta U = 0

here we know that

\Delta U = - 10 kJ

from above expression now

K_f - K_i - 10 kJ = 0

K_f - 0 = 10 kJ

so final kinetic energy of the hammer is 10 kJ

Evgen [1.6K]
Equation 1 :
m1 :   m1a =T 
Equation 2:m2 : m2a= F - T 

Adding 1 and 2a=0.073

Placing in  equation 1

we get T = 218.18N
