A harvest mouse can detect sounds below the threshold of human hearing, as quiet as -10 dB. Suppose you are sitting in a field on a very quiet day while a harvest mouse sits nearby. A very gentle breeze causes a leaf 1.5 m from your head to rustle, generating a faint sound right at the limit of your ability to hear it. The sound of the rustling leaf is also right at the threshold of hearing of the harvest mouse. How far is the harvest mouse from the leaf?
