The unit measurement for sound can be expressed in terms of intensity and in decibels. The intensity of sound is the measure of its power over unit area. The common unit of measurement is in decibels. This is commonly used in measuring the extent of noise. The conversion from intensity to the decibel unit is through logarithmic function. The formula is:
dB = 10 log(I/I0), where I0 is 10^-12 Watts per square meter
Substituting the values to the equation,
84 = 10log(I/10^-12)
I = 0.0002512 W/m2
In scientific notation the intensity is 2.512 x 10^-4 W/m^2.
The work-energy principle states that the work done by all the non-conservative forces acting on an object (or system of objects) causes a change in the total mechanical energy of the object or system.
What is the work-energy principle?
The work-energy principle states that the total work done on a system is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the system. It is given as:
W.D = ΔK.E
= K.E₁ - K.E₂
where K.E₁ is the initial kinetic energy of the system
K.E₂ is the final kinetic energy of the system
What is meant by non-conservative forces?
Non-conservative forces as the name suggests are not conserved i.e. these forces cause a loss of mechanical energy from the system. A prime example of non-conservative forces is friction.
The total mechanical energy of the system is the sum of the potential energy and kinetic energy that the system contains. This energy is conserved and follows the work-energy theorem.

I think it is d if not then im sorry
Answer
Given,
Time to hear the clap = 14.4 s
speed of the light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
Speed of sound = 343 m/s
a) distance where lightning strike
D = s x t
D = 14.4 x 343
D = 4939.2 m
b) No, we do not need to know the value of speed of light. Because we need to calculate the distance where we hear the sound. To calculate that we need to know the speed of sound.
Your answer would be C, "By conserving energy"! A gas can do work through something called the First Law of Thermodynamics. Heat that energy used by the gas during this "work" cannot be created or destroyed however it can be transferred and converted. This energy can only be stored during these processes, not removed. An example of this would be gas in a cylindrical object such as a piston. When the gas is heated, it expands and moves the piston upwards. When it expands, it stores that energy it gains through the heat given.
I hope this helps! (:
