Kinetic energy = 1/2 * mass * velocity^2
In this case,
KE = 1/2 * 1569 kg * (15 (m/s))^2 = 176,5 kN
On sources it says it would just be the super giant star
Answer:
iv) It is 9x bigger than before
Explanation:
As the amplitudes of the new speakers add directly with the original one, taking into account the phase that they have, the composed amplitude of the sound wave is as follows:
At = A + 4A -2A = 3 A
The intensity of the wave, assuming it propagates evenly in all directions, is constant at a given distance from the source, and can be expressed as follows:
I = P/A
where P= Power of the wave source, A= Area (for a point source, is equal to the surface area of a sphere of radius r, where is r is the distance to the source along a straight line)
For a sinusoidal wave, the power is proportional to the square of the amplitude, so the intensity is proportional to the square of the amplitude also.
If the amplitude changes increasing three times, the change in intensity will be proportional to the square of the change in amplitude, i.e., it will be 9 times bigger.
So, the statement iv) is the right one.
The answer would be 27,000 Joules because (1/2) m v^2 =30*900 which equals 27,000 J
