Answer:
Amplitude is decreased by a factor of
if intensity is decreased by a factor of 3.
Explanation:
Intensity of a sound wave is directly proportional to the square of its amplitude.
Therefore, if intensity is
and amplitude is
, then
, where,
is constant of proportionality.
Now, if intensity of sound wave is decreased by a factor of 3. So,
New intensity is, 

Plug in
for
. This gives,

Therefore, amplitude is decreased by a factor of
.
Give u = start velocity
v = end velocity
v = u + at
50 = 400 + a*30
30a = -350
a = -116.67 m/
**Why the accecleration is negative number**
Because displacement, velocity, and acceleration are VECTOR QUANTITIES.
Vector Quantity must have direction.
-- The speed of light in air is very close to 3 x 10⁸ m/s.
Whatever the actual number is, it's equivalent to roughly
7 times around the Earth in 1 second. So for this kind of
problem, you can assume that we see things at the same time
that they happen; don't bother worrying about how long it takes
for the light to reach you.
-- For sound, it's a different story. Sound in air only travels at
about 340 m/s. It takes sound almost 5 seconds to go 1 mile.
-- Now, the lightning and thunder happen at the same time.
The light travels to you at the speed of light, so you see the
lightning pretty much when it happens. But the sound of the
thunder comes poking along at 340 m/s, and arrives AFTER
the sight of the lightning.
The length of time between the sight and the sound is about
99.9999% the result of the time it takes the sound to reach you.
If the thunder arrived at you 3 seconds after the light did, then
the sound traveled
(340 m/s) x (3 s) = 1,020 meters .
(about 0.63 of a mile)
(If you're worried about ignoring the time it takes
for the light to reach you ...
It takes light 0.0000034 second to cover the same 1,020 meters,
so including it in the calculation would not change the answer.)
u might be right
