What is one way to increase the amplitude of a wave in a medium

vovikov84 [41]

supply it with more energy. one way to do is to produce vibrations in the same frequency as the wave. This would cause resonance leading to higher amplitude

A concert loudspeaker suspended high off the ground emits 34 W of sound power. A small microphone with a 1.0 cm2 area is 44 m fr

rjkz [21]

Answer:

Part A

I = 1.4 mW/m²

Part B

β = 91.46 dB

Explanation:

Part A

Sound intensity is the power per unit area of sound waves in a direction perpendicular to that area. Sound intensity is also called acoustic intensity.

For a spherical sound wave, the sound intensity is given by;

$I = \frac{P}{A}$

$I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^{2}}$

Where;

P is the source of power in watts (W)

I is the intensity of the sound in watt per square meter (W/m2)

r is the distance r away

Given:

P = 34 W,

A = 1.0 cm²

r = 44 m

The sound intensity at the position of the microphone is calculated to be;

$I = \frac{34}{4\pi (44)^{2}}$

I = 0.0013975 W/m²

≈ I = 0.0014 W/m² = 1.4 × 10⁻³ W/m²

I = 1.4 mW/m²

The sound intensity at the position of the microphone is 1.4 mW/m².

Part B

Sound intensity level or acoustic intensity level is the level of the intensity of a sound relative to a reference value. It is a a logarithmic quantity. It is denoted by β and expressed in nepers, bels, or decibels.

Sound intensity level is calculated as;

β $= 10log_{10}\frac{I}{I_{0}}$ dB

Where,

β is the Sound intensity level in decibels (dB)

I is the sound intensity;

I₀ is the reference sound intensity;

By pluging-in, I₀ is 1.0 × 10⁻¹² W/m²

∴ β $= 10log_{10}\frac{1.4 * 10^{-3} W/m^{2}}{1.0 * 10^{-12} W/m^{2}}$

β $= 10log_{10} (1.4 * 10^{9})$

β = 91.46 dB

The sound intensity level at the position of the microphone is 91.46 dB.

Match the theory to the statement that best describes it. 1. big bang. 2. steady state. 3.osscillating universe. 4. inflation Ch

Gre4nikov [31]

Explanation :

(1) Big bang : (1) The most accepted theory on the origin of the universe.

This theory shows the expanding of the universe from high density and high-temperature states.

(2) Steady state : (3) All is the same and will always stay the same.

Steady state means that the properties of any system remain the same always.

(3) Oscillating universe : (4) Agrees with the big bang theory but insists the universe expanded much quicker.

Oscillating universe theory is the result of big bang theory.

(4) Inflation Choices : (2) it's like an inflating and deflating balloon that never stops.

In cosmology, cosmic inflation or deflation is just the expanding and contraction of the universe.

So, the statements and the choices are related as:

(1)-(1)

(2)- (3)

(3)-(4)

(4)-(2)

An occupant of a car has a chance of surviving a crash if the deceleration during the crash is not more then 30 g. Calculate the

sweet [91]

Answer:

20,850 N

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using second Newton's Law:

$F=ma$

where

F is the force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

In this problem, we have:

m = 70 kg is the mass

$a=-30 g=-30 (9.8 m/s^2)=-294 m/s^2$ is the acceleration (which is negative, because it is a deceleration)

So, we can use the equation above to find the force:

$F=(70 kg)(-294 m/s^2)=-20580 N$

and the negative sign simply means that the force is in the opposite direction to the motion.

Linda is a forensic scientist arriving at the crime scene. What must she do before she can examine the crime scene?

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

In the more scientific viewpoint, the most important thing that she must do is caring for her hygiene and put some plastic gloves in her hands.

This is because there are lots of particles that can be retained in the hands (dust, skin, etc), and when examining the scene, she may drop some of these particles, "contaminating" the scene in this way with information that only will affect the investigation.

So the most important thing is being prepared to not affect anything in the crime scene
