That's true. The give-away is "observation ... in the real world". That's what "field reports" are.
The part I'm not so sure about is those "entific findings".
Difference in energy between the exicted states and ground states
B the energy of the car. Sorry if this is not right
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.
