You are trying to overhear a juicy conversation, but from your distance of 20.0 m , it sounds like only an average whisper of 30

.0 dB . So you decide to move closer to give the conversation a sound level of 80.0 dB instead?

Answer:

r₂ = 0.2 m

Explanation:

given,

distance = 20 m

sound of average whisper = 30 dB

distance moved closer = ?

new frequency = 80 dB

using formula

$\beta = 10 log(\dfrac{I_1}{I_0})$

I₀ = 10⁻¹² W/m²

now,

$30 = 10 log(\dfrac{I_1}{10^{-12}})$

$\dfrac{I_1}{10^{-12}}= 10^3$

$I_1= 10^{-8}\ W/m^2$

to hear the whisper sound = 80 dB

$80 = 10 log(\dfrac{I_2}{10^{-12}})$

$\dfrac{I_2}{10^{-12}}= 10^8$

$I_2= 10^{-4}\ W/m^2$

we know intensity of sound is inversely proportional to square of distances

$\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{r_2^2}{r_1^2}$

$\dfrac{10^{-8}}{10^{-4}}=\dfrac{r_2^2}{20^2}$

$10^{-4}=\dfrac{r_2^2}{20^2}$

r₂ = 0.2 m

A current of 16.0 mA is maintained in a single circular loop of 1.90 m circumference. A magnetic field of 0.790 T is directed pa

pav-90 [236]

Answer

given,

current (I) = 16 mA

circumference of the circular loop (S)= 1.90 m

Magnetic field (B)= 0.790 T

S = 2 π r

1.9 = 2 π r

r = 0.3024 m

a) magnetic moment of loop

M= I A

M= $16 \times 10^{-3} \times \pi \times r^2$

M= $16 \times 10^{-3} \times \pi \times 0.3024^2$

M= $4.59 \times 10^{-3}\ A m^2$

b) torque exerted in the loop

$\tau = M\ B$

$\tau = 4.59 \times 10^{-3}\times 0.79$

$\tau = 3.63 \times 10^{-3} N.m$

You wiggle a string,that is fixed to a wall at the other end, creating a sinusoidalwave with a frequency of 2.00 Hz and an ampli

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

A general wave function is given by:

$f(x,t)=Acos(kx-\omega t)$

A: amplitude of the wave = 0.075m

k: wave number

w: angular frequency

a) You use the following expressions for the calculation of k, w, T and λ:

$\omega = 2\pi f=2\pi (2.00Hz)=12.56\frac{rad}{s}$

$k=\frac{\omega}{v}=\frac{12.56\frac{rad}{s}}{12.0\frac{m}{s}}=1.047\ m^{-1}$

$T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{2.00Hz}=0.5s\\\\\lambda=\frac{2\pi}{k}=\frac{2\pi}{1.047m^{-1}}=6m$

b) Hence, the wave function is:

$f(x,t)=0.075m\ cos((1.047m^{-1})x-(12.56\frac{rad}{s})t)$

c) for x=3m you have:

$f(3,t)=0.075cos(1.047*3-12.56t)$

d) the speed of the medium:

$\frac{df}{dt}=\omega Acos(kx-\omega t)\\\\\frac{df}{dt}=(12.56)(1.047)cos(1.047x-12.56t)$

you can see the velocity of the medium for example for x = 0:

$v=\frac{df}{dt}=13.15cos(12.56t)$

Which describes acceleration involving only a change in direction?

Viefleur [7K]

If we consider any system moving with u<span>niform circular motion we can notice that the MAGNITUDE of the accelaration remains constant. However, there is a change in the direction of the acceleration at every instant of time .

As the object moves through the circle the acceleration changes its direction always pointing to the center of the circle.</span>

You have a horizontal grindstone (a disk) that is 86 kg, has a 0.33 m radius, is turning at 92 rpm (in the positive direction),

Rudiy27

Answer:

a) α = 0.338 rad / s² b) θ = 21.9 rev

Explanation:

a) To solve this exercise we will use Newton's second law for rotational movement, that is, torque

τ = I α

fr r = I α

Now we write the translational Newton equation in the radial direction

N- F = 0

N = F

The friction force equation is

fr = μ N

fr = μ F

The moment of inertia of a saying is

I = ½ m r²

Let's replace in the torque equation

(μ F) r = (½ m r²) α

α = 2 μ F / (m r)

α = 2 0.2 24 / (86 0.33)

α = 0.338 rad / s²

b) let's use the relationship of rotational kinematics

w² = w₀² - 2 α θ

0 = w₀² - 2 α θ

θ = w₀² / 2 α

Let's reduce the angular velocity

w₀ = 92 rpm (2π rad / 1 rev) (1 min / 60s) = 9.634 rad / s

θ = 9.634 2 / (2 0.338)

θ = 137.3 rad

Let's reduce radians to revolutions

θ = 137.3 rad (1 rev / 2π rad)

θ = 21.9 rev

If an object is projected upward from ground level with an initial velocity of 160 ft per sec, then its height in feet after t

sesenic [268]

Answer:

Time will be 5 sec

And maximum height will be 1200 feet

Explanation:

We have given that initial velocity of the object u = 160 ft/sec'

Function of height $s(t)=-16t^2+160t$

Take derivative of the distance

We know that first derivative of distance is velocity

So $v(t)=-32t+160$

At maximum height we know that velocity is zero

So $-32t+160=0$

t = 5 sec

So it will take 5 sec to reach maximum height

Now maximum height will occur at t = 5 sec

So maximum height = $16\times 5^2+160\times 5=1200feet$
