**Problem #4:** What sound intensity level in dB is produced by earphones that create an intensity of \(4.00 \times 10^{-2} \, \text{W/m}^2\)?

**Problem #5:** What is the intensity of a sound that has a level \(7.00 \, \text{dB}\) lower than a \(4.00 \times 10^{-9} \, \text{W/m}^2\) sound?

**Problem #6:** What is the intensity of a sound that is \(3.00 \, \text{dB}\) higher than a \(4.00 \times 10^{-9} \, \text{W/m}^2\) sound?

**Problem #7:** If a large housefly \(3.0 \, \text{m}\) away from you makes a noise of \(40.0 \, \text{dB}\), what is the noise level of \(1000\) flies at that distance, assuming interference has a negligible effect?
