Answer:

99 dB

Explanation:

We have given that sound intensity with a damaged muffler =8× 10^{-3}

we have to find the intensity level of the this sound in decibels

for calculating in decibels we have to use the formula

β=10log\frac{I}{I_0}

  =10log\frac{.008}{10^{-12}}

   =10 log8+10 log10^{9}

   =10 log8+90 log10

   =10×0.9030+90

   =99 dB

Two boxers are fighting. Boxer 1 throws his 5 kg fist at boxer 2 with a speed of 9 m/s.
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

0.001 s

Explanation:

The force applied on an object is equal to the rate of change of momentum of the object:

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}

where

F is the force applied

\Delta p is the change in momentum

\Delta t is the time interval

The change in momentum can be written as

\Delta p=m(v-u)

where

m is the mass

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

So the original equation can be written as

F=\frac{m(v-u)}{\Delta t}

In this problem:

m = 5 kg is the mass of the fist

u = 9 m/s is the initial velocity

v = 0 is the final velocity

F = -45,000 N is the force applied (negative because its direction is opposite to the motion)

Therefore, we can re-arrange the equation to solve for the time:

\Delta t=\frac{m(v-u)}{F}=\frac{(5)(0-9)}{-45,000}=0.001 s

A boat carving people more than its capacity is at risk of sinking, why?​
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Explained below.

Explanation:

For a boat or any object to float on water, it's density must be less than that of water.

Now, when the maximum capacity of people to be carried by the boat is exceeded, it's possible that the maximum mass of people will also be exceeded depending on the mass of the people in the boat.

Now, we know that; density = mass/volume.

Thus, the higher the mass of the people, the higher the density and the higher the density, the more likely it is to be above that of water and the more likely it is to sink.
