Ifthe sound burst lasts .2 seconds, what isthe power of this sound wave?a) 1 Wb) .2 Wc) 5 Wd) 2 We) ??5.2.2A lawnmower runs for 10 minutes.Over that time, a total of 1 J of sound energy isreleased. How does the power of thelawnmower sound compare to that of thefirework sound?A) Greater than B) Less thanC) Equal to D) ??5.1.6b2On Monday I walk slowly up theGamow tower. This takes a certainamount of energy.On Tuesday, I run up as fast as I can.Compare the ENERGY and POWERon the two days:A) Energy expended is same, poweris more on TuesdayB) Power is same, more energyexpended on TuesdayC) Energy and power both the sameon both daysD) More energy and more powerexpended on TuesdayE) ??5.1.9You and I are standing next to each other,listening to the exact same sound.Our ears are identical.You listen for TWICE as long as I doHow does the power compare?How does the total energy received compare?How does the intensity received compare?A)You receive twice what I doB)You receive half what I doC)We receive the same5.1.10You and I are standing next to each other,listening to the exact same sound.Your ears are TWICE the area of mine!How does the power compare?How does the total energy received compare?How does the intensity received compare?A) You receive twice what I doB) You receive half what I doC) We receive the same45.1.11Flute #1 generates a sound withmaximum overpressure 2 N/m2Flute #2 makes a sound withmaximum overpressure 6 N/m2How does the intensity of the soundscompare?I(#2) / I(#1) = ….A) 3B) 6C) 9D) 12E) 36Practice with powers of 10What’s 1,000 * 10-12?A) 1E-11B) 1E-10C) 1E-9D) 1E-8E) Something else/???5.2.3There are two instruments, a trumpet anda flute.
