Answer:

Explanation:

The hippopotamus hearing threshold is 100dB

β = 100 dB

The threshold of human hearing is Io = 1 × 10^-12 W/m²

The sound intensity level is given as

β = 10•Log(I / Io)

100 = 10•Log(I / Io)

Divided Both sides by 10

100 / 10 = Log(I / Io)

10 = Log(I / Io)

Take inverse Logarithm ( antilog) of both sides

10^10 = 10^[Log(I / Io)]

10^10 = I / Io

Then,

I = 10^10 × Io

I = 10^10 × 1 × 10^-12

I = 1 × 10^-2 W/m²

I = 0.01 W/m²

The sound intensity is 0.01 W/m²

A convex security mirror has a radius of curvature of 12.0 cm. What is the magnification of a pare 3.0 m from the mirror?
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

magnification will be -0.025

Explanation:

We have given the radius of curvature = 12 cm

And object distance = 3 m

So focal length f=\frac{R}{2}=\frac{12}{2}=6cm

Now for mirror we know that \frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}

So \frac{1}{0.06}=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{v}

16.66-0.333=\frac{1}{v}

v = 0.750 m

Now magnification of the mirror is m=\frac{-v}{u}=\frac{-0.750}{3}=-0.025

Two air track carts move along an air track towards each other. Cart A has a mass of 450 g and moves toward the right with a spe
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

The right answer is D) the total momentum of the system is 0.047 kg · m/s toward the right.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The total momentum of the system is given by the sum of the momentum vectors of each cart. The momentum is calculated as follows:

p = m · v

Where:

p = momentum.

m = mass.

v = velocity.

Then, the momentum of the system will be the momentum of cart A plus the momentum of cart B (let´s consider the right as the positive direction):

mA · vA + mB · Vb

0.450 kg · 0.850 m/s + 0.300 kg · (- 1.12 m/s) = 0.047 kg · m/s

The right answer is D) the total momentum of the system is 0.047 kg · m/s toward the right.

Three moles of a monatomic ideal gas are heated at a constant volume of 1.20 m3. The amount of heat added is 5.22x10^3 J.(a) Wha
k0ka [10]

Answer:

A) 140 k

b ) 5.22 *10^3 J

c) 2910 Pa

Explanation:

Volume of Monatomic ideal gas = 1.20 m^3

heat added ( Q ) = 5.22*10^3 J

number of moles  (n)  = 3

A ) calculate the change in temp of the gas

since the volume of gas is constant no work is said to be done

heat capacity of an Ideal monoatomic gas ( Q ) = n.(3/2).RΔT

make ΔT subject of the equation

ΔT = Q / n.(3/2).R

    = (5.22*10^3 ) / 3( 3/2 ) * (8.3144 J/mol.k )

    = 140 K

B) Calculate the change in its internal energy

ΔU = Q  this is because no work is done

therefore the change in internal energy = 5.22 * 10^3 J

C ) calculate the change in pressure

applying ideal gas equation

P = nRT/V

therefore ; Δ P = ( n*R*ΔT/V )

                        = ( 3 * 8.3144 * 140 ) / 1.20

                        = 2910 Pa

What information in the MSDS would be most important to know at the end of an experiment?
Artemon [7]
The most important information in the MSDS that is useful at the end of an experiment is how to manage or dispose of the waste materials of the experiment. This is important especially if the materials used are toxic. They cannot just be disposed in the sink or the trash bin. They must be disposed in a waste bottle or other methods.
