Expert Solution
Step 1

Given that

The average acoustic power delivered by the loudspeaker is

Ps_av=5.00 W

and distance 

RA=12.0 mRB=24.0 m

Therefore cross sectional area for distance RA is given by

Cross sectional area=π×RA2Cross sectional area=3.14×12.0 m×12.0 mCross sectional area=452.16 m2
