Answer:

111dB

Explanation:

First, find the intensity of the sound using the formula I = Power / 4 x pi x radius ^2

60.0 / (4 x 3.14 (6.25)^2)

= 0.122

Then plug that into the equation to find sound level, which is 10log( I / Io)

Io being (1 x 10^-12)

10log(0.122 / 1 x 10^-12)

= 111dB

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

110.87 dB

Explanation:

(I got it right on Acellus)

I= P/4(pi)r^2 = 60/4(pi)6.25^2

60/4(pi)6.25^2=0.12223

B=10log(I/Io)

B=10log(0.12223/1*10^-12) = 110.87 dB

The distance between 4 nodes (3 sections, 2 sections= wavelength) is 15.0cm. The frequency of the source is 10Hz. What's the spe

Natalija [7]

Answer:

the speed of the waves is 150 cm/s

Explanation:

Given;

frequency of the wave, f = 10 Hz = 10

distance between 4 nodes, L = 15.0 cm

The wavelength (λ) of the wave is calculated as follows;

Node to Node = λ/2

L = 2(Node to Node) = (4 Nodes) = 2 (λ/2) = λ

Thus, λ = L = 15.0 cm

The speed (v) of the wave is calculated as follows;

v = fλ

v = 10 Hz x 15.0 cm

v = 150 cm/s

Therefore, the speed of the waves is 150 cm/s

What are disadvantages of using fossil fuels to generate electricity? Check all that apply.

laila [671]

Fossil fuels are non-renewable resources and create greenhouse gases. While cheaper now to burn fossil fuels, within fifty years we will run out and have to turn to other sources of energy. Hope this helps!!!

Answer:

a. 11 m/s at 76° with respect to the original direction of the lighter car.

Explanation:

In this exercise, since both cars make a right angle, let's assume that the lighter car only has a horizontal velocity component (vx) and that the heavier one only has a vertical velocity component (vy). The final velocities for both components for the system can be determined as:

$m_{1} v_{x1}+m_{2}v_{x2}=(m_{1}+m_{2})v_{fx}\\m_{1} v_{y1}+m_{2}v_{y2} =(m_{1}+m_{2})v_{fy}$

Assume that the lighter car has a 1kg mass and that the heavier car has a 4 kg mass.

$1*13 + 4*0 = (1+4) v_{fx}\\v_{fx}=\frac{13}{5} =2.6\\1*0 + 4*13 = (1+4) v_{fy}\\v_{fy}=\frac{13*4}{5} =10.4\\$

The magnitude of the final velocity of the wreck can be found as:

$v_{f}^{2}= v_{fx}^{2}+ v_{fy}^{2}\\v_{f}=\sqrt[]{2.6^{2} + 10.4^{2}} \\v_{f}= 10.72$

The final velocity has an intensity of roughly 11 m/s

As for the angle, it can be determined in respect to the lighter car (x axis) as follows:

$\theta = cos^{-1}(\frac{v_{fx} }{v_{f}} )\\\theta = cos^{-1}(\frac{2.6}{10.7} )\\\theta = 76^{o}$

Therefore, the wreck has a velocity with an intensity of 11 m/s at 76° with respect to the original direction of the lighter car.

A 10-kg cart moving at 5 m/s collides with a 5-kg cart at rest and causes it to move 10 m/s. Which principle explains the result

Over [174]

B) law of conservation of momentum

It states that the total momentum of a system before impact is the same as the total momentum of the system after impact.

In this case total momentum before impact:

10kg*5m/s + 5kg * 0m/s = 50 kg m/s

After Impact:

10kg*0m/s + 5kg*10m/s = 50 kg m/s

You can see the momentum before and after impact is same as 50 kg m/s

Of course we assumed that the first cart stopped after the impact, and there are no energy losses.
