Answer: Δβ (dB) = -13.1dB

Explanation:

The intensity of sound is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

I ∝ 1/r²

I₁/I₂= r₂²/r₁² .....1

When the listener increases his distance from the source by a factor of 4.49.

Then,

r₂/r₁= 4.49

From equation 1

I₁/I₂ = (4.49)²

I₁/I₂ = 20.16

I₂/I₁ = 1/20.16

The change in sound intensity in dB can be given as

Δβ (dB) = 10 log(I₂/l₁) = 10log(1/20.6) = -13.1dB

Heat used by electric heater :

Q = m • c • ∆T

Q = (75 kg)(4200 J/kg°C)(43°C - 15°C)

Q = 8.82 × 10⁶ J

Cost of electrical energy :

Cost = (8.82 × 10⁶ J)/(3.6 × 10⁶ J) • ($ 0.15)

Cost = $ 0.3675
