Due to a point isotropic sonic source, loudness at a point is `L=60dB` If density of air is `rho=((15)/(11))(kg)/(m^3)` and velocity of sound in air is `v=33(m)/(s)`, the pressure oscillation amplitude at the point of observation is `[I_0=10^-12(W)/(m^2)`]

A

`3.22xx10^-6`

B

`3.22xx10^-12`

C

`3.22xx10^-9`

D

`1.07xx10^-10`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
We have
`trianglep_0=BAK`
`impliestrianglep_0=rhov^2Axxk`
`impliestrianglep_0=(rhov^2Axx2pi)/(lamda)`
`(A)/(lamda)=(trianglep_0)/(rhov^2xx2pi)=3.22xx10^-9`
