Answer:

I = 1.58 x 10⁻³ watt/m²

Explanation:

Here, we will use the following formula:

\beta = 10\ log_{10}(\frac{I}{I_o})

where,

β = decibel level = 92 dB

I = Intenisty of sound in watt/m² = ?

I₀ = reference intensity = 10⁻¹² watt/m²

Therefore,

92\ dB =10\ log_{10}(\frac{I}{10^{-12}\ watt/m^2} )\\\\

10^{9.2} = \frac{I}{10^{-12}}\ watt/m^2\\\\I = (1.58\ x\ 10^9)(10^{-12}\ watt/m^2)

<u>I = 1.58 x 10⁻³ watt/m²</u>

A force of 70 N is applied to a 28 kg rock causing it to slow down from 25 m/s to 15 m/s, a change in velocity of 10 m/s. How lo
maksim [4K]

Answer: 4 s

Explanation:

Given

The applied force is 70 N

mass of the rock is 28 kg

initial velocity u=25\ m/s

final velocity v=15\ m/s

Deceleration provided by force is

a=-\dfrac{70}{28}=-2.5\ m/s^2

using the equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 15=25-2.5t\\\Rightarrow 2.5t=10\\\Rightarrow t=4\ s

Can someone help me plzzz..<br>whoever answers the best will be marked as brainliest.....​
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

1) 3 applications of pressure in daily life are :-

● The area of sharp edge of knife, scissor or handsaws are much less then blunt edge. So, for same total force pressure is more for sharp edges than the blunt one. Hence sharp knife, scissors etc, cuts easily than a blunt one.

●Broad handles in bags and suitcases are provided for the comfort. Broad handles have large area. So, the pressure exerted on hands and shoulders would be small while carrying the bags and the suitcases.

●Trucks carrying heavy loads have more than four tyres. More tyres in case of trucks increase the area of contact with the road. This results in reduced pressure on the tyres.

2) Area of the surface which is on ground = 1.5×1

= 1.5m^2

Mass of the block = 300kg

Force applied by the block = Mass × g = 300×10

= 3000N (where g = acceleration due to gravity )

Pressure = Force applied / Area of the surface

= 3000N / 1.5m^2

= 2000 Pa

3)

a) The above experiment signifies that more the area of the surface of an object , less the pressure an object applies.

b) B exerts the minimum pressure because the area of its surface to ground is greater than others & as it has more area of surface , it exerts less pressure. ( area is inversely proportional to pressure )

c) D exerts the maximum pressure because the area of its surface to ground is lesser than others & as it has less area of surface , it exerts more pressure. ( area is inversely proportional to pressure )

d) It depend upon the way an object is kept on ground. If an object is kept in such a way dat the area of the surface to the ground is more , then pressure will be least exerted .If an object is kept in such a way dat the area of the surface to the ground is less, then pressure will be exerted more .

e) Do it yourself . only i will suggest that make the tip of the cone ( which is to the ground ) more narrower.
