Theintensity of a wave, in contrast, is the power relative to a certain surface.Consider a wave traveling across a surface perpendicular to the direction ofpropagation. The intensity I of the wave is defined as the ratio of the powerP of the wave to the area A of that surface:1 = ²/ PNote that the surface may be real (physical, like an eardrum or awindowpane) or mathematical. Quite frequently, we will be interested in theintensity produced by a relatively small source at a relatively large distance.If the source emits waves uniformly in all possible directions (producesspherical waves), the formula given here makes it possible to find theintensity at a distance r from the source:I =P4π7²Note that, in all parts of this problem, assume that the source generatesspherical waves, so that this intensity formula is applicable.Intensity is measured in watts per square meter (W/m²). All theinformation presented here is pertinent to any kind of wave. In this problem,we will be focusing on sound waves.A popular car stereo has four speakers, each rated at 60 W. In answering the following questions, assume that the speakers produce sound at their maximum power.Part AFind the intensity I of the sound waves produced by one 60-W speaker at a distance of 1.0 m.Express your answer numerically in watts per square meter. Use two significant figures.I = 4.8 W/m²Submit✓ CorrectPart BFind the intensity I of the sound waves produced by one 60-W speaker at a distance of 1.5 m.Express your answer numerically in watts per square meter. Use two significant figures.I = 2.1 W/m²SubmitPrevious AnswersPart CPrevious AnswersSubmitCorrectNote that the intensity I is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source. For example, if you quadruple your distance from the source, at the newlocation the wave will have one-sixteenth the intensity (assuming that no energy is absorbed between the two locations). Thus, the greater the distance, the smaller thewave intensity.7 of 15ReviewFind the intensity I of the sound waves produced by four 60-W speakers as heard by the driver. Assume that the driver is located 1.0 m from each of the two front speakers and1.5 m from each of the two rear speakers.Express your answer numerically in watts per meter squared.I = 13.8 W/m²Previous Answers>

Part A The ability to hear a "pin drop" is the sign of sensitive hearing. Suppose a 0.48 g pin is dropped from a height of 29 cm, and that the pin emits sound for 1.3 s when it lands. Assuming all of the mechanical energy of the pin is converted to sound energy, and that the sound radiates uniformly in all directions, find the maximum distance from which a person can hear the pin drop. (This is the ideal maximum distance, but atmospheric absorption and other factors will make the actual maximum distance considerably smaller.) Express your answer using two significant figures. km
