**Physics Problem on Sound Waves and Intensity**

**Problem Statement:**
Adriana is walking to the east at 3.00 m/s with a friend who is also walking east at 3.00 m/s, keeping a constant distance of 2.00 m from Adriana. The friend is talking, emitting a sound wave with power 34.0 mW. They are approached from behind by a bicyclist moving at 7.00 m/s east, ringing the bicycle’s bell which emits with frequency 910 Hz and power 0.089 W. Air temperature is 17.0°C. At the instant when the bicyclist is 10.0 m behind Adriana, find:

a) The frequency Adriana hears for the bicycle bell: _______________________________

b) The intensity Adriana hears for the bicycle bell: _______________________________

c) The intensity Adriana hears from her friend: _______________________________

d) The total sound level Adriana hears: _______________________________

**Instructions for Students:**
To solve this problem, students should utilize knowledge of the Doppler effect for sound waves and sound intensity equations. Students may also need to consider the effect of air temperature on the speed of sound. Here's a step-by-step guide to aid in solving:

1. **Doppler Effect Calculation**:
   - Calculate the apparent frequency of the bicycle bell sound as heard by Adriana using the Doppler effect formula. 

2. **Intensity Calculation**:
   - Use the inverse square law for intensity to determine how the intensities decrease over distance.

3. **Combining Sound Intensities**:
   - When multiple sound sources are involved, calculate the resultant intensity level accurately.

4. **Temperature Effect**:
   - Consider any necessary adjustments for sound speed due to temperature.

Make use of the relevant equations:
- Doppler Effect: \( f' = f \left( \frac{v \pm v_o}{v \pm v_s} \right) \)
- Intensity: \( I = \frac{P}{4 \pi r^2} \)
- Speed of Sound in Air: \( v \approx 331.4 + 0.6T  \) (where \( T \) is in degrees Celsius)
