Answer:

3.16

Explanation:

We know that sound level in dB = 10log(I'/I) where I = initial intensity at 20.0m from source = P/A where P = total power and A = area at 20.0 m and I' = New intensity when the sound level increases by 5.00 dB at 20.0 m from source = P'/A where P' = Power at 5.00 dB and A = area at 20.0 m

dB = 5.00 dB. So,

5.00 dB = 10log(P'/A ÷ P/A)

5.00 dB = 10log(P'/P)

5/10 = log(P'/P)

0.5 = log(P'/P)

taking anti-logarithm of both sides,

10⁰°⁵ = P'/P

P'/P = 3.16

P' = 3.16P

So, P must be increased by a factor of 3.16 for the sound intensity level at a distance of 20.0 m from the source is to increase 5.00 dB.

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

\frac{t_1}{t_2} = \frac{sin\theta_1}{sin\theta_2}

Explanation:

The vertical component of the initial velocities are

v_v = v_0sin\theta

If we ignore air resistance, and let g = -9.81 m/s2. The the time it takes for the projectiles to travel, vertically speaking, can be calculated in the following motion equation

v_vt - gt^2/2 = s = 0

t(v_v - gt/2) = 0

v_v - gt/2 = 0

t = 2v_v/g = 2v_0sin\theta/g

So the ratio of the times of the flights is

t_1 / t_2 = \frac{2v_0sin\theta_1/g}{2v_0sin\theta_2/g} = \frac{sin\theta_1}{sin\theta_2}

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

The flux is calculated as φ=BAcosθ. The flux is thereforemaximum when the magnetic field vector is perpendicular to theplane of the loop. We may also deduce that the flux is zero whenthere is no component of the magnetic field that is perpendicularto the loop.

when angle is zero then flux is maximium because when angle zerocos is maximium

What is accurate about the planet’s climate system?
ElenaW [278]

The accurate about the planet’s climate system is the wind

because heating near the equator blows the wind to drive the convection cells in the atmosphere, and the friction created by the rotation of the spherical planet in the atmosphere causes the wind to appear to bend left or right across the surface of the planet. ..

The climate system is a highly complex global system consisting of five major components: the atmosphere, the ocean, the cryosphere (cryosphere), the land surface, the biosphere, and the interactions between them.

Solar energy drives the climate by heating the surface of the earth unevenly. Ice also reflects incoming sunlight, further cooling the poles. Temperature differences move the ocean and atmosphere as they work together to disperse heat throughout the globe.
