Spherical waves are emitted from a 1.0 W...

Spherical waves are emitted from a `1.0 W` source in an isotropic non-absorbing medium. What is the wave intesity `1.0 m` from the source?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, D

`I = (p)/(4pir^(2)) =(1.0)/(4pi(1)^(2)) = (1)/(4pi) W//m^(2)`
