    The ratio of the intensity of a 60 dB sound to a 20 dB sound is 100. Intensity levels of 40 dB and 24 dB correspond to intensities of 1.0 x 10-10 W/m^2 and 2.5 x 10-12 W/m^2, respectively. The intensity level of a sound from a point source is 60 dB at 4.0 m and will be 54 dB at a distance of 12.0 m from the same source.

    Exercise 21.

    3
    1 The intensity level of a sound is 60 dB while the intensity level of another sound is 20 dB.
    Determine the ratio of the intensity of the first sound to that of the second sound.

    2 The threshold of hearing is 1.0 x 10~12 W m~2. Find the intensity of sound corresponding to an
    intensity level of
    (a) 40 dB
    (b) 24 dB

    3 The intensity level of sound 4.0 m from a point source is 60 dB. What is the intensity level at a
    distance of 12.0 m from the same source?
