Person standing on A will hear the loudest sound
Explanation:
The intensity of a sound wave (which is proportional to the loudness of the sound) follows an inverse square law, which is:
where
I is the intensity of the wave
r is the distance from the source of the sound
This equation means that the intensity of the sound wave (and therefore, its loudness) is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source: therefore,
- As we get closer to the source of sound, the loudness increases
- As we move away from the source of sound, the loudness decreases
Therefore, the person that will hear the loudest sound is the one standing closer to the source, and therefore person A.

Answer:
The decibel of the remaining pigs is 51.5 dB.
Explanation:
Decibel (dB) is a unit of measure of the intensity of a given sound.
Number of pigs = 199, noise level = 74.3 dB.
Given that the intensity (I) of the sound from the pen is proportional to the number of pigs (N), thus:
I N
I = kN
where k is the constant of proportionality.
⇒ k =
=
k = 0.3734
When 61 numbers of pigs were removed, the number of remaining pigs (N) squealing at their original level is 138.
Thus, the becibel level (I) of the remaining pigs can be determined by:
I = kN
= 0.3734 × 138
= 51.53 dB
The becibel level (I) of the remaining pigs is 51.53 dB.
