The faintest sound the human ear can detect at a frequency of ` kHz` (for which ear is most sensitive) corresponds to an intensity of about `10^(-12)w//m^(2)`. Assuming the density of air `cong1.5kg//m^(3)` and velocity of sound in air `cong300m//s`, the pressure amplitude and displacement amplitude of the sound will be rspectively ____`N//m^(2)` and ____`m`.

The faintest sound the human ear can detect at a frequency of 1kHz (for which the ear is most sensitive) corresponds to an intensity of about 10^(-12)W//m^2 (the so called threshold of hearing). Determine the pressure amplitude and maximum displacement associated with this sound assuming the density of air = 1.3kg//m^2 and velocity of sound in air = 332 m/s

A blast given a sound of intensity 0.8 W//m^(2) at frequency 1kHz. If the denstiy of air is 1.3 kg//m^(3) and speed of sound in air is 330 m/s, then the amplitude of the sound wave is approximately

The faintest sound the human ear can detect at a frequency of 1000 Hz correspond to an intensity of about 1.00xx10^-12(W)/(m^2) , which is called threshold of hearing. The loudest sounds the ear can tolerate at this frequency correspond to an intensity of about 1.00(W)/(m^2) , the threshold of pain. Detemine the pressure amplitude and displacement amplitude associated with these two limits. Take speed of sound =342(m)/(s) and density of air =1.20(kg)/(m^3)
