Description : At a distance of 10 meters form a point source, the intensity level is measured to be 70 dB. At what distance form the source well the intensity be 40 dB? How do you solve this?
Last Answer : Going on memory here….3db is half the intensity. The intensity is usually inversely proportional to r squared. The rest is math, so 70–40 is 30 or ten halves.

Description : The pitch of sound is measured by its (a) Intensity (b) Waveform (c) Frequency (d) Loudness
Last Answer : Ans:(c)
Description : The pitch of the sound is measured by its: (1) Intensity (2) waveform (3) Frequency (4) Loudness
Last Answer : (3) Frequency Explanation: Pitch relates to the frequency, or how many times a second the particles vibrate. The distance between one wave and the next gives the wavelength. For sounds all travelling at the same speed, highfrequency (high-pitched) sounds have waves very close together.
