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 car speed off around a bend at a constant 10m/s explain why it's velocity is not constant
VARVARA [1.3K]
It's velocity is not constant as direction is changing.
 
We know, velocity is speed with direction, so if direction is changing, velocity can't be constant, doesn't matter that speed is constant.

Hope this helps!

Gravitational forces is ------ force​
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

Gravitational force is <u>noncontact</u> force

Explanation:

Contact force occurs due to the contact between two different objects. Non-contact force occurs due to either attraction or repulsion between two objects such that there is no contact between these objects. There is no field linked with the contact force. ... Gravitational force is an example of a non-contact force.
