Answer:

Explanation:

Velocity of sound in air at 20 degree = 343 m/s

Velocity of sound in water at 20 degree = 1470 m/s

Time taken in to and fro movement in air

=( 2 x 10) / 343 = 0.0583 s

Rest of the time  is

.171 - .0583 = .1127 s

This time is taken to cover distance in water. If d be the depth of lake

2d / velocity = time taken

2 d / 1470 = .1127

d = 82.83 m

A dinner plate falls vertically to the floor and breaks up into three pieces, which slide horizontally along the floor. Immediat
Olegator [25]

Answer:

Explanation:

There will be conservation of momentum along horizontal plane because no force acts along horizontal plane.

momentum of first piece = .320 kg x 2 m/s

= 0.64 kg m/s along x -axis.

momentum of second piece = .355 kg x 1.5 m/s

= 0.5325 kg m/s along y- axis .

Let the velocity of third piece be v and it is making angle of θ with x -axis .

Horizontal component of its velocity = .100 kg x v cosθ = .1 v cosθ

vertical  component of its velocity = .100 kg x v sinθ = .1 v sinθ

For making total momentum in the plane zero

.1 v cosθ = 0.64 kg m/s

.1 v sinθ = 0.5325 kg m/s

Dividing

Tanθ = .5325 / .64 = .83

θ = 40⁰.

The angle will be actually 180 + 40 = 220 ⁰ from positive x -axis.

Will two separate 50db sounds together constitute a 100db sound explain mathematical
vfiekz [6]
Putting together two distinct 50 dB sound, do not create a 100 dB sound. Since decibels are logarithm of energy, creating two sounds together only makes the energy increase but the logarithm only goes up by somehow little. So increasing the sound by 10 dB, only makes it 10000 times louder because each 10 dB increase in sound makes the sound 10 times louder.

Twice as loud is an increase of 10Log (2) = 3.01 dB. So, 53,01 dB is twice as loud as 50dB.
