2. Suppose the intensity of sound of a jet during takeoff is 100 watts/m2. What is the corresponding sound intensity in decibels? How much more intense is this sound than the least audible sound a human can hear? 3. A 1-liter solution contains 10-8 moles of hydrogen ions. Determine whether the solution is acidic, neutral, or basic.

A very short sound pulse is generated at the open end of a 2.00 m long gas-filled tube, which is closed at the other end. The temperature of the gas is 273 K. The echo is heard after 0.010 s. Is the speed of sound in the gas faster or slower than in air (at the same temperature). Select one: O A. Impossible to calculate because the speed of sound in the gas is not known. O B. Neither, since the speed of sound is a constant. O C. Speed is slower in the gas than in air. O D. Speed is faster in the gas than in air.
