Answer:
Explanation:
The power of each of the speakers is 0.535 W. At a distance d intensity of sound can be found by the following formula
Intensity of sound = Power / 4π d²
= .535 / 4 x 3.14 x (27.3/2)²
= 2.286 x 10⁻⁴ J m⁻² s⁻¹
Intensity of sound due to other source = 5.715 x 10⁻⁵J m⁻² s⁻¹
Total intensity = 2 x 2.286 x 10⁻⁴J m⁻² s⁻¹
= 4.57 x 10⁻⁴J m⁻² s⁻¹
b ) In this case, man is standing at distances 18.15 m and 9.15 m from the sources .
The total intensity of sound reaching him is as follows
0.535 / (4 π x18.15² ) + 0.535 / (4 π x9.15² )
= 1.293 x 10⁻⁴ + 5.087 x 10⁻⁴
= 6.38 x 10⁻⁴J m⁻² s⁻¹
