What are the two possible frequencies of the string?arrow_forwardCheck Your Understanding Identify common sounds at the levels of 10 dB, 50 dB, and 100 dB.arrow_forwardA community is concerned about a plan to bring train service to their downtown from the town’s outskirts. The current sound intensity level, even though the rail yard is blocks away, is 70 dB downtown. The mayor assures the public that there will be a difference of only 30 dB in sound in the downtown area. Should the townspeople be concerned? Why?arrow_forward

- Loudspeakers can produce intense sounds with surprisingly small energy input in spite of their low efficiencies. Calculate the power input needed to produce a 90.0—dB sound intensity level for a 12.0-cm-diameter speaker that has an eficiency of 1.00%. (This value is the sound intensity level right at the Speaker.)arrow_forwardA 250-Hz tuning fork is struck and begins to vibrate. A sound-level meter is located 34.00 m away. It takes the sound t=0.10 s to reach the meter. The maximum displacement of the tuning fork is 1.00 mm. Write a wave function for the sound.arrow_forward
