A concert loudspeaker suspended high off the ground emits 34 W of sound power. A small microphone with a 1.0 cm2 area is 44 m fr
rjkz [21]

Answer:

<u>Part A</u>

I = 1.4 mW/m²  

<u>Part B</u>

β = 91.46 dB

Explanation:

<u>Part A</u>

Sound intensity is the power per unit area of sound waves in a direction perpendicular to that area. Sound intensity is also called acoustic intensity.

For a spherical sound wave, the sound intensity is given by;

                                            I = \frac{P}{A}

                                            I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^{2}}

Where;

P is the source of power in watts (W)

I is the intensity of the sound in watt per square meter (W/m2)

r is the distance r away

Given:

P = 34 W,

A = 1.0 cm²

r = 44 m

The sound intensity at the position of the microphone is calculated to be;

                                     I = \frac{34}{4\pi (44)^{2}}

                                     I = \frac{34}{4\pi (44)^{2}}

                                     I = 0.0013975 W/m²

                                 ≈  I = 0.0014 W/m² = 1.4 × 10⁻³ W/m²

                                     I = 1.4 mW/m²

The sound intensity at the position of the microphone is 1.4 mW/m².

<u>Part B</u>

Sound intensity level or acoustic intensity level is the level of the intensity of a sound relative to a reference value.  It is a a logarithmic quantity. It is denoted by β and expressed in nepers, bels, or decibels.

Sound intensity level is calculated as;  

                                    β = 10log_{10}\frac{I}{I_{0}}  dB

Where,

β is the Sound intensity level in decibels (dB)

I is the sound intensity;

I₀ is the reference sound intensity;

By pluging-in, I₀ is 1.0 × 10⁻¹² W/m²

           ∴        β = 10log_{10}\frac{1.4 * 10^{-3} W/m^{2}}{1.0 * 10^{-12} W/m^{2}}

                      β = 10log_{10} (1.4 * 10^{9})

                      β = 91.46 dB

The sound intensity level at the position of the microphone is 91.46 dB.

A jet plane flying 600 m/s experiences an acceleration of 4g when pulling out of the dive. What is the radius of curvature of th
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

The radius of the curve is 9,183.67 m.

Explanation:

Given;

velocity of the jet plane, v = 600 m/s

acceleration of the jet plane, a = 4g = 4 x 9.8 m/s² = 39.2 m/s²

The radius of the curve is calculated from centripetal acceleration formula as given below;

a = \frac{v^2}{r} \\\\r = \frac{v^2}{a} \\\\r = \frac{600^2}{39.2} \\\\r = 9,183.67 \ m

Therefore, the radius of the curve is 9,183.67 m.

If Sarah melts 10g of tin. What mass of melted tin would she have at the end of the experiment?​
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

10g

Explanation:

As the Law of Conservation of Mass states that " Mass can neither be created nor be destroyed in a chemical reaction".

Though melting of tin isn't a chemical change, the same logic is applied here...

Hence,

The mass of tin will be 10 g itself...
