One of the loudest sounds in recent history was that made by the explosion of krakatoa on august 26-27, 1883. according to barometric measurements, the sound had a decibel level of 180 db at a distance of 161 km. assuming the intensity falls off as the inverse of the distance squared, what was the decibel level on rodriguez island, 4,800 km away?

150.51 dB

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

decibel level of sound at 161 km distance = 180 dB

d₁ = 161 km

d₂ = 4800 km

I₁ = 180 db

The formula for intensity of sound is given as:

I =

and the relation between intensity and distance is given as:

I ∝

or

Id² = constant

thus,

I₁d₁² = I₂d₂²

or

therefore,

I =

or

I =

or

I = 20 × (-1.474)

or

I = -29.49

Therefore,

the decibel level on Rodriguez Island, 4,800 km away

= 180 - 29.49

= 150.51 dB

9 x 8 divided by (5-3)=36

step-by-step explanation:

one of the most important purposes of surface treatment is to alter surface properties according to the requirement of specific applications. for example, hydrophobic coating has been utilized on windshield and eyeglasses. gold atom monolayer on substrate has become a popular surface bioconjugation strategy.
