AI Generated Solution

To find the amplitude of the vibration of the particles of air through which a sound wave is passing, we can use the relationship between intensity, amplitude, frequency, and density of the medium. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand the formula for intensity The intensity \( I \) of a sound wave can be expressed as: \[ I = \frac{1}{2} \rho v \omega^2 S_0^2 \] where: ...
