Gravity.: Gravity is the force that acts at a right angle to the path of an orbiting object.
Answer:
The maximum height reached by the body is 313.6 m
The time to return to its point of projection is 8 s.
Explanation:
Given;
initial velocity of the body, u = 78.4 m/s
at maximum height (h) the final velocity of the body (v) = 0
The following equation is applied to determine the maximum height reached by the body;
v² = u² - 2gh
0 = u² - 2gh
2gh = u²
h = u²/2g
h = (78.4²) / (2 x 9.8)
h = 313.6 m
The time to return to its point of projection is calculated as follows;
at maximum height, the final velocity becomes the initial velocity = 0
h = v + ¹/₂gt²
h = 0 + ¹/₂gt²
h = ¹/₂gt²
2h = gt²
t² = 2h/g
Answer: Δβ (dB) = -13.1dB
Explanation:
The intensity of sound is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
I ∝ 1/r²
I₁/I₂= r₂²/r₁² .....1
When the listener increases his distance from the source by a factor of 4.49.
Then,
r₂/r₁= 4.49
From equation 1
I₁/I₂ = (4.49)²
I₁/I₂ = 20.16
I₂/I₁ = 1/20.16
The change in sound intensity in dB can be given as
Δβ (dB) = 10 log(I₂/l₁) = 10log(1/20.6) = -13.1dB
