Will two separate 50db sounds together constitute a 100db sound explain mathematical

1 answer:

5 0

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.

Answer:

Coefficient of friction will be 0.587

Explanation:

We have given mass of the car m = 500 kg

Distance s = 18.25 m

Initial velocity of the car u = 14.5 m/sec

As the car finally stops so final velocity v = 0 m/sec

From second equation of motion

$v^2=u^2+2as$

$0^2=14.5^2+2\times a\times 18.25$

$a=-5.76m/sec^2$

We know that acceleration is given by

$a=\mu g$

$5.76=\mu\times 9.81$

$\mu =0.587$

So coefficient of friction will be 0.587

Somebody please help me with this question..!

Rudik [331]

8.1) Here, Pressure increases with depth in the ocean at higher rate then that of increase in altitude in atmosphere. So, the rate of change of pressure is different in these journeys.So, your most correct answer would be option D.

8.2) Difference in the shape of lines is due to different density of air & water. So, that physical property and your answer would be option A

So, in Short Answers of your questions are:
8.1) - Option D
8.2) - Option A

Hope this helps!

Determine the velocity that a car should have while traveling around a frictionless curve of radius 100m and that is banked 20 d

alex41 [277]

Answer:

$v=18.89\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

From the free-body diagram for the car, we have that the normal force has a vertical component and a horizontal component, and this component act as the centripetal force on the car:

$\sum F_x:Nsin(20^\circ)=ma_c(1)\\\sum F_y:Ncos(20^\circ)=mg(2)$

Solving N from (2) and replacing in (1):

$N=\frac{mg}{cos(20^\circ)}\\(\frac{mg}{cos(20^\circ)})sin(20^\circ)=ma_c\\gtan(20^\circ)=a_c$

The centripetal acceleration is given by:

$a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}$

Replacing and solving for v:

$gtan(20^\circ)=\frac{v^2}{r}\\v=\sqrt{grtan(20^\circ)}\\v=\sqrt{9.8\frac{m}{s^2}(100m)tan(20^\circ)}\\v=18.89\frac{m}{s}$
