Arock band playing an outdoor concert produces sound at 120 db 5.0 m away from their single working loudspeaker. ignore sound reflected from walls and other objects and consider sound originating directly from the speakers.

a. what is the sound intensity level 35 m from the speaker?
b. how far away from the speaker should you stand to ensure the intensity does not exceed 80 db?

Given that

β= 120 dB at 5 m

We know that sound intensity given as

I= 1 W/m²

Power producing by loud speaker

P = I  x 4πr²

P=314.15 W

a)

Let take intensity at 35 m is I'

r'=35 m

I'=P/4πr'²

I'=0.0204 W/m²

b)

Given that

β'= 80 dB

I'=10⁻⁴ W/m²

Let's take at distance r  intensity is 80 dB

P=314.15 W

P = I'  x 4πr'²

314.15 = 10⁻⁴  x  4πr'²

r'=500.11 m

8 meters above the spring

i dont know but
