Answer:

L = 130 decibels

Explanation:

The computation of the sound intensity level in decibels is shown below:

According to the question, data provided is as follows

I = sound intensity = 10 W/m^2

I0 = reference level = 1 \times 10-12 W/m^2

Now

Intensity level ( or Loudness)is

L = log10 \frac{I}{10}

L = log10 \frac{10}{1\times 10^{-12}}

L = log10 \times 1013

= 13 \times 1 ( log10(10) = 1)

Therefore  

L = 13 bel

And as we know that

1 bel = 10 decibels

So,

The  Sound intensity level is

L = 130 decibels

What happens to heat energy after an object is cooled down lolololol asking for my bff
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Heat energy does not cool. Objects cool. Energy is not an object. Now, what happens when an object cools is that it gives off some of its thermal energy by one or more mechanisms: radiation, conduction, or convection. In radiation the energy escaped the object as electromagnetic waves - you see the red hot poker slowly dim as it cools, in conduction the energy is transferred Mechanically by the atoms of the hot object being in physical contact with those of the cool object and in convection the hot material moves to a cooler region where it gives up its heat energy by either radiation or conduction.

An object ends up at a final position of x=-55.25 meters after a displacement of -189.34 meters after a displacement of -189.34
Travka [436]

The initial position of the object was found to be 134.09 m.

<u>Explanation:</u>

As displacement is the measure of difference between the final and initial points. In other words, we can say that displacement can be termed as the change in the position of the object irrespective of the path followed by the object to change the path. So

Displacement = Final position - Initial position.

As the final position is stated as -55.25 meters and the displacement is also stated as -189.34 meters. So the initial position will be

Initial position of the object = Final position-Displacement

Initial position = -55.25 m - (-189.34 m) = -55.25 m + 189.34 m = 134.09 m.

Thus, the initial position for the object having a displacement of -189.34 m is determined as 134.09 m.

If a 10kg block is at rest on a table and a 1200N force is applied in the eastward direction for 10 seconds, what is the acceler
gavmur [86]

Answer:

a = 120 m/s²

Explanation:

We apply Newton's second law in the x direction:

∑Fₓ = m*a Formula (1)

Known data

Where:

∑Fₓ: Algebraic sum of forces in the x direction

F: Force in Newtons (N)

m: mass (kg)

a: acceleration of the block (m/s²)

F = 1200N

m = 10 kg

Problem development

We replace the known data in formula (1)

1200 = 10*a

a = 1200/10

a = 120 m/s²

Two skaters, a man and a woman, are standing on ice. Neglect any friction between the skate blades and the ice. The mass of the
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

a₁ = 0.63 m/s²  (East)

a₂ = -1.18 m/s²  (West)

Explanation:

m₁ = 95 Kg

m₂ = 51 Kg

F = 60 N

a₁ = ?

a₂ = ?

To get the acceleration (magnitude and direction) of the man we apply

∑Fx = m*a   (⇒)

F = m₁*a₁         ⇒      60 N = 95 Kg*a₁    

⇒  a₁ = (60N / 95Kg) = 0.63 m/s²  (⇒)  East

To get the acceleration (magnitude and direction) of the woman we apply

∑Fx = m*a   (⇒)

F = -m₂*a₂         ⇒      60 N = -51 Kg*a₂    

⇒  a₂ = (60N / 51Kg) = -1.18 m/s²  (West)

For every case we apply Newton’s 3 d Law

To provide the pulse of energy needed for an intense bass, some car stereo systems add capacitors. One system uses a 2.4F capaci
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Energy stored in a capacitor

= 1/2 CV²

C is capacitance and V is potential of the capacitor .

When capacitor is charged to 24 V ,

E₁ = 1/2 x 2.4 x 24 x24 = 691.2 J

When it is charged to 12 volt

E₂ = 1/2 CV²

.5 X 2.4 X 12 X12

= 172.8 J
