Given that,

At 3.00 m from a source that is emitting sound uniformly in all directions, the sound level is 60.0 dB.

To find,

The distance from the source would the sound level be one-fourth the sound level at 3.00 m.

Solution,

The intensity from a source is inversely proportional to the distance.

Let I₁ = 60 dB, r₁ = 3 m, I₂ = 60/4 = 15 dB, r₂ =?

Using relation :

$\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{r_2^2}{r_1^2}\\\\r_2^2=\dfrac{I_1r_1^2}{I_2}\\\\r_2^2=\dfrac{60\times (3)^2}{15}\\\\r_2=6\ m$

So, at a distance of 6 m the sound level will be one fourth of the sound level at 3 m.

If a scale on Earth reads 650 N, what is your mass?

OlgaM077 [116]

If the scale reads 650N, then the mass of whoever it is standing on the scale is

(weight) / (gravity) = (650N) / (9.8 m/s²) = 66.3 kilograms .

It's not MY mass, even if I'm the one standing on the scale.
If I stand on a scale and it reads 650 N, the scale is broken.

What is the easiest way to increase the magnetic force acting on the rotor in an induction motor?

Schach [20]

Answer:

Explanation:

Magnets are of two major forms namely the permanent magnet and the temporary magnets. Temporary magnets magnetizes and demagnetize easily while permanent magnets does not magnetizes and demagnetize easily.

This permanents magnets are applicable in loudspeakers, generators, induction motor etc.

To increase the

The following will tend to increase the magnetic force acting on the rotor in an induction motor.

1. Increasing the strength of the bar magnet. Increase in strength of the magnet will lead to increase in the magnetic force acting on the rotor.

2. Increase in the magnetic line of force also known as the magnetic flux around the magnet will also increase the magnetic force acting on the rotor.

How far apart would you have to place the poles of a 1. 5 v battery to achieve the same electric field?

Zarrin [17]

To place the poles of a 1. 5 v battery to achieve the same electric field is 1.5×10−2 m

The potential difference is related to the electric field by:

∆V=Ed

where,

∆V is the potential difference

E is the electric field

d is the distance

what is potential difference?

The difference in potential between two points that represents the work involved or the energy released in the transfer of a unit quantity of electricity from one point to the other.

We want to know the distance the detectors have to be placed in order to achieve an electric field of

E=1v/cm=100v/cm

when connected to a battery with potential difference

∆v=1.5v

Solving the equation,we find

$d = \frac{ \:Δv}{e}$
