When a person wears a hearing aid, the sound intensity level increases by 32.8 dB. By what factor does the sound intensity increase in this case? Units not required as it is a ratio.

Problem 4. A point source emits sound waves uniformly in all directions. At distance 90.0 m from the source the sound intensity level is 15 dB. At what distance from the source is the sound intensity level 35 dB?

What is the decibel level of a sound that has an intensity of 10.4 x 10-5 W/m2? Assume the standard dB level scale where the reference intensity is 1 x 10-12 W/m2

12 gives the loudness of sound L (in dB) based on the intensity of sound I (in W/m²). The value I = 10 The formula L=10 log threshold for hearing for midfrequency sounds. Hearing impairment is often measured according to the minimal sound level (in dB) detected by an individual for sounds at various frequencies. For one frequency, the table depicts the level of hearing impairment. Category Mild Moderate Moderately severe Severe Profound Loudness (dB) 26≤L≤40 41≤L≤55 56≤L≤70 71 ≤L≤90 L>90 W/m is the minimal (a) If the minimum intensity heard by an individual is 9421.4 x 108 W/m², determine if the individual has a hearing impairment. Round to the nearest tenth. (b) If the minimum loudness of sound detected by an individual is 40 dB, determine the corresponding intensity of sound.

A source emits sound uniformly in all directions. There are no reflections of the sound. At a distance of 12 m from the source, the intensity of the sound is 4.2 x 10-³ W/m². What is the total sound power P emitted by the source? P = Number 1 Units

The intensity level in decibels is defined as 10 log10(I/I0), where I0 is a reference intensity equal to the human threshold of hearing, 10–12 W/m2. What is the intensity of the threshold of pain, 120 decibels? answer is : 10° W/m2   I'm not sure how they got this answer

A sound wave radiates from a speaker in all directions. If the power of the sound source is 200 W, calculate the intensity level in dB of the sound wave 1 km from the speaker. Hint: Presume that the sound waves spread as a sphere (not a hemisphere).

Chapter 16, Problem 069 Your answer is partially correct. Try again. ES. lem The bellow of a territorial bull hippopotamus is measured at 116 dB above the threshold of hearing.

A bat can detect small objects, such as an insect, whose size is approximately equal to one wavelength of the sound the bat makes. If bats emit a chirp at a frequency of 7.69  104 Hz, and if the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s, what is the smallest insect a bat can detect? ?mm

Problem #4: What sound intensity level in dB is produced by earphones that create an intensity of 4.00 x 10-2 W/m2? Problem #5: What is the intensity of a sound that has a level 7.00 dB lower than a 4.00 × 10–9 W/m2 sound? Problem #6: What is the intensity of a sound that is 3.00 dB higher than a 4.00 × 10–9 W/m2 sound? Problem #7: If a large housefly 3.0 m away from you makes a noise of 40.0 dB, what is the noise level of 1000 flies at that distance, assuming interference has a negligible effect?
