A sound wave arriving at your ear is transferred to the fluid in the cochlea. If the intensity in the fluid is 0.410 times that in air and the frequency is the same as for the wave in air, what will be the ratio of the pressure amplitude of the wave in air to that in the fluid? Approximate the fluid as having the same values of density and speed of sound as water. Speed of sound in dry air (20.0°C, 1.00 atm) is 343 m/s, density of dry air (at STP) is 1.29 kg/m3, density of water is 1000 kg/m3, and speed of sound in water is 1493 m/s.
