Mass of the car = 1200 kg
Mass of the truck = 2100 kg
Total mass of car and truck = 2100 + 1200 = 3300 kg
Since, the car pushes the truck. Hence, they will move together and will have same acceleration.
Let the acceleration be a.
According to Newton's second law:
F(net) = ma
F = 4500 N
4500 = 3300 × a
a = 1.36 m/s^2
Let the force applied by the car on truck be F.
F = F(net) on the truck
F = ma
F = 2100 × 1.36
F = 2856 N
Hence, the force applied by the car on the truck is 2856 N
The intensity of the sound wave is defined as the ratio between the power of the wave and the area through which the wave passes:
where
I is the intensity
P is the power
A is the area
If we use the data of the problem,
and 
, we find the intensity of the sound wave:
where
I is the intensity
P is the power
A is the area
If we use the data of the problem,
