Sound level at distance of 15 m is given as 20 dB
so intensity at this distance is given as



now if we move closer to some some distance the sound level is now 50 dB
now the intensity is given as



now we know that



so now the distance from friend must be 47 cm
Speed of sound in cold air < Speed of sound in Warm air < Speed of sound in hot molten lead < Speed of sound in water
Explanation:
Step 1:
Speed of sound in water varies from 1450 to 1498 meters per second
Speed of sound in Hot Molten lead is approximately 1210 meters per second
Speed of sound in warm air is approximately 338.89 meters per second
Speed of sound in cold air is approximately 293.33 meters per second
Step 2:
In warm air sound travels faster than that of sound travelling nature in cold air.
∴ Speed of sound in cold air < Speed of sound in Warm air < Speed of sound in hot molten lead < Speed of sound in water
Speed of sound in cold air the slowest while Speed of sound in water is the fastest mean.
The heat moves from the hot chocolate to the handle of the spoon by a process called thermal conduction.
It is the transfer of heat energy from one object to another when they are in contact with eachother.
