When a person speaks, a sound intensity is generated that is 600 times greater than when the person whispers. What is the differ

ence in decibels between the sound level when the person speaks compared to when she whispers

Answer:

Originally : Level = log I / I0

Currently: Level = 10 log I / I0

Level = 10 log 600 = 10 * 2.78 = 27.8

Note the term 1 bel = 10 decibels

A force of 9.6 N acts on a 5.1 kg object for 8.2 s. Calculate the object's change in velocity (in m/s).

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

15.4

Explanation:

F=m×(v, initial-v,terminal )/time

therefore, change of velocity=F×t/m

=9.6×8.2/5.1

=15.4 m/s

A 55 newton force applied on an object moves the object 10 meters in the same direction as the force. What is the value of work

Elanso [62]

$F=55 \ N \\ d=10 \ m \\ \boxed{W-?} \\ \bold{Solving:} \\ \boxed{W=F \cdot d} \\ W=55\ N \cdot 10 \ m \\ \Rightarrow \boxed{W=550 \ J}$

What is 34 + (5) × (1.2465) written with the correct number of significant figures?

bonufazy [111]

Answer: 40

Explanation:

= 34 + 5 * 1.2465

= ‭40.2325‬

= 40

The number of significant figures in the answer should be the same as the number with the least number of significant figures that any of the digits in the equation have.

32 has 2 significant figures so the answer has to be 2 significant figures which is 40.

A ship sets sail from Rotterdam, The Netherlands, intending to head due north at 6.5 m/s relative to the water. However, the loc

sattari [20]

Answer:

Explanation:

velocity of ship with respect to water = 6.5 m/s due north

$\overrightarrow{v}_{s,w}=6.5 \widehat{j}$

velocity of water with respect to earth = 1.5 m/s at 40° north of east

$\overrightarrow{v}_{w,e}=1.5\left ( Cos40\widehat{i} +Sin40\widehat{j}\right)$

velocity of ship with respect to water = velocity of ship with respect to earth - velocity of water with respect to earth

$\overrightarrow{v}_{s,w} = \overrightarrow{v}_{s,e} - \overrightarrow{v}_{w,e}$

$\overrightarrow{v}_{s,e} = 6.5 \widehat{j}- 1.5\left (Cos40\widehat{i} +Sin40\widehat{j} \right )$

$\overrightarrow{v}_{s,e} = - 1.15 \widehat{i}+5.54\widehat{j}$

The magnitude of the velocity of ship relative to earth is $\sqrt{1.15^{2}+5.54^{2}}$ = 5.66 m/s
