Answer:

Explanation:

For sound level in decibel scale the relation is

dB = 10 log I / I₀ where I₀ = 10⁻¹² and I is intensity of sound whose decibel scale is to be calculated .

Putting the given values

61 = 10 log I / 10⁻¹²

log I / 10⁻¹² = 6.1

I = 10⁻¹² x 10⁶°¹

=10^{-5.9}

intensity of sound of 5 persons

I=5\times 10^{-5.9}

dB=10log\frac{5 X 10^{-5.9}}{10^{-12}}

= 10log 5 x 10⁶°¹

= 10( 6.1 + log 5 )

= 67.98

sound level will be 67.98 dB .

A 360-N child is in a swing that is attached to a pair of ropes 1.90 m long. Find the gravitational potential energy of the chil
Igoryamba

Answer:

684J

Explanation:

So basically the formula for gravitational potential energy is Mass X Gravity X height. That is G.p.e = mgh

We don't have the mass but since we have the height, we multiply directly with the height since the quantity of weight is already given.

so G.p.e = 360 X 1.9 = 684J

Note that; The answer is in joules because g.p.e is work done.

Hope that was helpful!!

Match each property with the benefit it provides to people on Earth. A. magnetic field filters cancer-causing rays from the sun
vodomira [7]

The correct matching are the following:

  • A. magnetic field: prevents charged particles from the sun from reaching the surface
  • B. ozone: filters cancer-causing rays from the sun
  • C. carbon dioxide: retains heat energy from the sun in the atmosphere
  • D. water in oceans, lakes, rivers and streams: moderates changes in temperature on the surface

The electromagnetic field of the Earth protects us from solar wind by deflecting it. Without it, the charged particles would strip away our ozone, which will lead to the end of life on Earth.

The ozone is a layer in the stratosphere that filters the suns rays. It filters the UV rays by absorbing it. This prevents the UV rays from damaging the surface of the Earth.

Carbon dioxide retains heat in the atmosphere, which creates a greenhouse effect. It is beneficial for us, but because human activity like industrial activities emit so much carbon in the atmosphere that it ends up being harmful.

Bodies of water found on Earth regulate the temperature of the Earth through ocean currents. It brings in both cold and warm air to land which also affect precipitation.

Long explanation, I know, but maybe this will help you out in the long run. Good Luck!
