What decibel reading corresponds to a pressure amplitude of 0.2 W/m^2?
horsena [70]

I  = pressure amplitude given = 0.2 W/m²

dB = decibel reading

decibel reading from the pressure amplitude is given as

dB = 10 log₁₀ (I/10⁻¹²)

inserting the values in the above equation

dB = 10 log₁₀ (0.2/10⁻¹²)

dB = 10 log₁₀ (2 x 10⁻¹/10⁻¹²)

dB = 10 log₁₀ (2 x 10⁻¹.10¹²)

dB = 10 log₁₀ (2 x 10¹²⁻¹)

dB = 10 log₁₀ (2 x 10¹¹)

dB = 113.01 db

hence the decibel reading comes out to be 113.01 db

A concrete highway is built of slabs 12 m long (20°C). How wide should the expansion cracks between the slabs be (at 20°C) to pr
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

0.001152m

Explanation:

Linear expansivity of a material is the change in length of the material per unit length per degree rise in temperature. Mathematically,

¢ = ∆L/L1∆°C

¢ is the linear expansivity of the material = 12 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹

Where ∆L is the change in length = L2-L1

L2 is the final length = ?

L1 is the initial length = 12m

∆°C is the change in temperature = °C2 - °C1 = 50-(-30) = 80°C

Substituting this values inside the formula to get the final length L2 after expansion, we have;

12 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹ = L2-12/12×80

12 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹ = L2-12/960

L2-12= 960×12 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹

L2-12 = 0.001152

L2 = 12+0.001152

L2 = 12.001152m

Expansion will be the change in length L2-L1 = 12.001152-12

= 0.001152m

The expansion cracks between the slabs should be 0.001152m wide to prevent buckling

Water flows through a garden hose which is attached to a nozzle. The water flows through hose with a speed of 1.81 m/s and throu
Serggg [28]

Answer:

a) 17.086m

b) 0.1671 m

Explanation:

Given data: speed of water through the hose  = 1.81 m/s

through the nozzle = 18.3 m/s

We know that maximum height of an object with upward velocity v is given by,

a) H = v^2/2g

where H is the maximum height water emerges  

= 18.3^2/(2×9.8) = 17.086 m answer

b) Again,  

H = v^2/2g

= 1.81^2/(2×9.8) = 0.1671 m

An electric motor operates a pump that irri-
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

a. 5A

b. 39.60%

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. The current does it draw is

= v ÷ R

= 110v  ÷ 22

= 5A

b. Now the efficiency of the motor is

n = mgh ÷ vlt

= (10,000 × 9.8 × 8) ÷ (5 × 3600 × 110)

= 784000 J ÷ 1,980,000

= 39.60%

hence, the above formulas are applied & the same is relevant
