Very funny. Can I do all your homework for you?
Answer:
No, the acceleration is not always zero.
Explanation:
It does not mean that the acceleration of the particle is zero.
The velocity of wave is different from the velocity of particle.
The acceleration of wave is different from the acceleration of particle.
the acceleration of the particle is given by

where, w is the angular frequency and y is the displacement from the mean position.
So, the acceleration is zero at mean position only and it varies as the position changes.
Sound at 70 dB is 70 dB louder than the human reference level. That's 10⁷ times as much as the reference sound power.
Sound at 73 dB is 73 dB louder than the human reference level. That's 10⁷.³ or 2 x 10⁷ times as much as the reference sound power.
Sound at 80 dB is 80 dB louder than the human reference level. That's 10⁸ or 10 x 10⁷ times as much as the reference sound power.
Now we can adumup:
Intensity of all 3 sources = (10⁷) + (2 x 10⁷) + (10 x 10⁷)
Intensity = (13 x 10⁷) times the sound power reference intensity.
Intensity in dB = 10 log (13 x 10⁷) = 10 (7 + log(13)
Intensity = 70 + 10 log(13)
Intensity = 70 + 10 (1.114)
Intensity = 70 + 11.14
Intensity = <em>81.14 dB</em>

Looking at the questioner's profile, I seriously wonder whether I'll ever get a comment in return from this creature, and how I'll ever find out if my solution is correct. For that matter, I'm also seriously questioning how and whether my solution will ever be used for anything.
