Suppose a large housefly 3.0 m away from you makes sound with an intensity level of 40.0 dB. What would be the sound intensity l

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the intensity of the noise be represented by I

Given that

40dB = 10 log 10 ⁡ ( I /I•) ........ 1

I• is the lowest or threshold intensity of sound made.

I represents the intensity of the sound/ noise

The intensity of noise of 1000flies will be

β = 10 log 10 ⁡(1000I/I•)

Open up the bracket

β = 10 log 10(1000)+ 10 log 10(I/I•)

10 log 10(10^3)+10 log 10(I/I•)

3×10(10 log 10) +10 log 10(I/I•)

Recall, 10 log 10 = 1

30×1 + 10 log 10(I/I•).........2

Put equation 1 into 2

β =30+40

= 70db

Assume your mass is 84 kg. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . How much work against gravity do you do when you climb
KATRIN_1 [288]
M, mass=84 kg
height, h=3.9m
gravity, g= 9.8m/s2
W = F . d
F=force
d=Displacement
W=work done by force
Now by putting the values
F= m g (Acting downward )
d= h (Upward)
W= m g h ( work done against the force)
W= 84•9.8•3.9J
W= 3210.48
Therefore the answer will be 3210.48J.

You jump off a truck and accelerate toward the surface of the Earth. Does the Earth accelerate toward you?
Triss [41]

When we jump from the truck and accelerate towards the earth surface, the earth also accelerates towards us but it's acceleration is very negligible.

To find the answer, we need to know about the acceleration of earth due to the gravitational attraction.

<h3>What's the gravitational force between the earth and a person?</h3>
  • Gravitational attraction force is GMm/r² between the earth and a person.
  • M= mass of the earth

m= mass of the person

r= separation between them.

<h3>What's the acceleration of the earth towards the person when he jumps from a truck?</h3>
  • According to Newton's second law, Force = M×acceleration
  • Acceleration= Force / M
  • Here, Force = GMm/r²,

so acceleration of earth= Gm/r²

  • As this acceleration is very small, so we can't notice it.

Thus, we can conclude that the earth also accelerates towards us.

The world record for the 100.0 meter dash is 9.580 seconds. Find the speed of the runner in miles per hour.
grigory [225]

Answer:

233.1 miles per hours

Explanation:

Speed: This is defined as the ratio of distance to time. The S.I unit of speed is m/s. speed is a vector quantity because it can only be represented by magnitude only. Mathematically, speed can be expressed as,

S = d/t ....................... Equation 1

Where S = speed of the runner, d = distance covered, t = time.

Given: d = 100 meter , t = 9.580 seconds

Conversion:

If, 1 meter =  0.00062 miles

Then, 100 meters = (0.00062×100) miles = 0.62 miles.

Also

If, 3600 s = 1 h

Then, 9.580 s = (1×9.580)/3600 = 0.00266 hours.

Substitute into equation 1

S = 0.62/0.00266

S = 233.1 miles per hours.

Hence the runner speed is 233.1 miles per hours

A submarine emerges 1/9 of its volume when it partially floats on the sea surface. For make it completely submerge it is necessa
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

4,524,660 N

Explanation:

Assuming the submarine's density is uniform, 1/9th of the submarine's mass is equal to the mass of the displaced water.

m/9 = (1026 kg/m³) (50 m³)

m = 461,700 kg

mg = 4,524,660 N
