After your school's team wins the regional championship, students go to the dorm roof and start setting off fireworks rockets. T

he rockets explode high in the air and the sound travels out uniformly in all directions. If the sound intensity is 1.62 10-6 W/m2 at a distance of 165 m from the explosion, at what distance from the explosion is the sound intensity half this value

Answer:

required distance is 233.35 m

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Sound intensity I = 1.62 × 10⁻⁶ W/m²

distance r = 165 m

at what distance from the explosion is the sound intensity half this value?

we know that;

Sound intensity I is proportional to 1/(distance)²

i.e

I ∝ 1/r²

Now, let r² be the distance where sound intensity is half, i.e I₂ = I₁/2

Hence,

I₂/I₁ = r₁²/r₂²

1/2 = (165)²/ r₂²

r₂² = 2 × (165)²

r₂² = 2 × 27225

r₂² = 54450

r₂ = √54450

r₂ = 233.35 m

Therefore, required distance is 233.35 m

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

With the addition of the pipe we have a greater torque.

Explanation:

We need to complete the description of the problem, searchin in internet we have:

"Sometimes, even with a wrench, one cannot loosen a nut that is frozen tightly to a bolt. It is often possible to loosen the nut by slipping one end of a long pipe over the wrench handle and pushing at the other end of the pipe. With the aid of the pipe, does the applied force produce a smaller torque, a greater torque, or the same torque on the nut?"

With the addition of the pipe we have a greater torque, as it increases the distance or radius of torque.

We know that torque is defined, as the product of force by distance, in this way we have:

T = F * d

where:

T = torque [N*m]

F = force [N]

d = distance [m]

We can see in the above equation, that increasing the distance increases torque proportionally.

klasskru [66]

Boyle's law states that when you "shrink"(change its size) a container the pressure increases so the best answer would be D-volume is decreased.
