An audio speaker producing a steady sound at an outdoor concert is 18 ft away from you. If you move to a position where the speaker is 67 ft distant, by what factor will the amplitude of the sound change?
Determine the electric flux through a Gaussian surface that contains 87 protons and 73 electrons.
The mercury-in glass thermometer has the ice and steam pint as 6cm and 31cm respectively. Calculate the height of the Mercury when the temperature is 60°
Two point charges are placed as follows: charge q1 = -1.50 nC is at y = +6.00 m and charge q2 = +3.20 nC is at the origin. What is the total force (magnitude and direction) exerted by these two charges on a negative point charge q3 = -5.00 nC located at (2.00 m, -4.00 m)?
A very large, superconducting solenoid such as one used in MRI scans, stores 1.00 MJ of energy in its magnetic field when 100 A flows. (a) Find its self-inductance. (b) If the coils
“go normal,” they gain resistance and start to dissipate thermal energy. What temperature increase is produced if all the stored energy goes into heating the 1000 kg magnet,
given its average specific heat is 200 J/kg·oC ?

(a) Calculate the average velocity of the car for the time interval t = 0 to t = 10 seconds.
(b) Calculate the instantaneous velocity of the car at t = 0,t = 5s, and t = 10s.
(c ) How long after starting from rest is the car again at rest?
1. You normally drive on the freeway between Lopez, Quezon and San Pablo, Laguna at an
average speed of 105 km/hr, and the trip takes 2 hours and 20 minutes. On a Friday
afternoon, however, heavy traffic slows you down and you drive the same distance at an
average speed of only 70 km/hr. How much longer does the trip take?
