A 3.00 m long air column is open at both ends. The frequency of a certain harmonic is 410 Hz, and frequency of the next higher harmonic is 492 Hz. Determine the speed of sound in the air column. Then,a trumpet creates a sound intensity level of 110 dB at a distance of 1.00 m. What is the sound intensity of five trumpets at this distance?
