Answer:

\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{4}{9}

Explanation:

c = Speed of wave

\rho = Density of medium

A = Area

\nu = Frequency

\nu_1=\dfrac{2}{3}\nu_2

Intensity of sound is given by

I=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho c(A\omega)^2\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho c(A2\pi \nu)^2

So,

I\propto \nu^2

We get

\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{\nu_1^2}{\nu_2^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{\dfrac{2}{3}^2\nu_2^2}{\nu_2^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{4}{9}

The ratio is \dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{4}{9}

Juliette [100K]
Mechanical advantage of a machine is the ratio of the output force over the input force or M=Fo/Fi. Since M=1, Fi=Fo, or the input force is equal to the output force. This means that to raise the refrigerator that weighs 900 N, we need the same input force of 900 N, or Fo=Fi=900 N.
