Answer:

130 dB

Explanation:

The equation for decibel level is given by:

D=10log(\frac{I}{I_n} )\\\\Where\ D\ is\ the \ decibel\ level\ in\ dB, I\ is\ the\ intensity\ in \ W/m^2, \\I_n\ is\ threshold\ intensity\ to\ the\ human\ ear=1*10^{-12}W/m^2\\\\Given\ that\ D=125dB, hence:\\\\125=10log(\frac{I}{1*10^{-12}} )\\\\12.5=log(\frac{I}{1*10^{-12}} )\\\\I=3.2\ W/m^2

The intensity for 1 jack hammer is 3.2 W/m², therefore for 3 jack hammers, the intensity = 3 * 3.2 = 9.6 W/m²

D=10\ log(\frac{I}{I_n} )\\\\D=10*log(\frac{9.6}{1*10^{-12}} )\\\\D=130\ dB

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

saturated air temperature by 0.5^{\circ}C/100 m

Dew point temperature is given by t=2^{\circ}C

Dew point is defined as the temperature after which air no longer to uphold the water vapor fuse with it and some water vapor may condense to a liquid.

air continues to rise for 1400 m

i.e. change in temperature would be \Delta t =\frac{0.5}{100}\times 1400=7^{\circ}C

Final temperature t_f

t_f+\Delta t=t

t_f=2-7=-5^{\circ}C

A 160.-kilogram space vehicle is traveling along a
mario62 [17]

If the object is moving in a straight line at a constant speed, then that's
the definition of zero acceleration.  It can only happen when the sum of
all forces (the 'net' force) on the object is zero.

And it doesn't matter what the object's mass is.  That argument is true
for specks of dust, battleships, rocks, stars, rock-stars, planets, and
everything in between.
