Question

TRUE or FALSE.

The sound intensity produced by a given sound source is directly proportional to the square of the distance from the source.

Answer 1

We know that

Intensity of sound

$I=\frac{P}{A}$

$I=\frac{P}{4\pi r^2}$

I inversely proportional to squre of distance

$I\alpha\frac{1}{r^2}$

The sound intensity produced by a given sound source is directly proportional to the square of the distance from the source.

This statement is False

FALSE
