Sound source A has a deciBel rating of 50 dB. Sound source B is 1000 times more intense. What is the deciBel rating of B
masha68 [24]

The decibel system of sound intensity operates by a logarithmic scale, meaning that sound intensity increases exponentially in relation to the decibel rating.

For decibels, the equation between intensity and the dB equivalent is:

dB = 10log(i),

where “i” is the intensity of the sound. The ten in front of the log means that an increase in ten dB results in a tenfold increase in sound intensity; for example, a 30 dB sound is ten times softer than a 40 dB sound.

In this case, a sound with a dB of 80 would be 1000 times more intense than a 50 dB sound, so the decibel rating of B is 80.

Hope this helps!

How much heat is released as a 5.89 kg block of aluminum cools from 462 °C to 315 °C. The specific heat capacity of aluminum is
s2008m [1.1K]
Mass, m = 5890g
Change in temperature, θ = Final_temperature - Initial_temperature
= 315 - 462°C
= -147°C

Specific heat capacity of aluminum, c = 0.900 J/(g*K) 
=mcθ
=5890g x 0.900 J/(g*K) x -147°C
=-779,247j

Answer would be C.

While at the county fair, you decide to ride the Ferris wheel. Having eaten too many candy apples and elephant ears, you find th
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

radius = 15 m

Time T = 23 s

a) Speed (v) = \dfrac{2 \pi r}{T}

v = \dfrac{2\times \pi \times 15}{23}

v = 4.10 m/s

b) The magnitude of the acceleration is:

a = \dfrac{v^2}{r} \\ \\ a = \dfrac{(4.10)^2}{15}

a = 1.12 m/s²

c) True weight = mg

Apparent weight = normal force

From the top;

the normal force = upward direction,

weight is downward as well as the acceleration.

true weight - normal force = ma  

apparent weight =mg - ma  

\dfrac{apparent \ weight}{true \  weight} = \dfrac{(mg - ma)}{(mg)}

=1- \dfrac{1.12}{9.8}

= 0.886 m/s²

d)

From the bottom;

acceleration is upward, so:

apparent weight - true weight = ma

apparent weight = true weight + ma

\dfrac{apparent \ weight }{true \ weight} =\dfrac{ mg + ma}{mg}

\dfrac{apparent \ weight }{true \ weight} =1+ \dfrac{a}{g} \\ \\ = 1 + \dfrac{1.12}{9.8}

= 1 + \dfrac{1.12}{9.8} \\ \\

= 1.114 m/s²

A video store owner noticed a 5% drop in rentals of DVDs after raising her prices 10%. Are DVD rentals
lukranit [14]

Answer:

Inelastic

Explanation:

The price elasticity of demand is the degree of responsiveness of demand for a product or service to a unit change in price. The demand for a product is said to be elastic when a change in price has a relatively large effect on the demand for the product, unitary when there is a percentage change in price brings about an equal percentage change in the demand for the product, and inelastic when a change in the price of a product brings about a smaller change in the demand for the product.

<em>In the case of the DVD rentals, a 10% increase in price brought about only a 5% drop in demand. Hence, the demand for DVD rentals is said to be inelastic because a change in the price brought about a smaller change in the demand for DVD rentals.</em>

A Imagine you derive the following expression by analyzing the physics of a particular system: v2 + 2az. The problem requires so
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

  z = 93.2 m

Explanation:

We can appreciate that this expression is equivalent to the linear motion equation with constant acceleration

           v² = v₀² + 2 a d

If we make a term-to-term comparison with the expression obtained, they are equivalent

          u² = v² + 2 a z

From here we can clear the position

           2 a z = u² –v²

           z = (u² –v²) / 2 a

Let's calculate

For the speed to reduce the acceleration must be negative

         

         z = (0 - 21.8²) / 2(- 2.55)

         z = 93.2 m
