Vedclass · Answer

We have, $\beta=10 \log _{10}\left(\frac{\mathrm{I}}{\mathrm{I}_{0}}ight)$
Where $I_{0}=$ threshold intensity of sound
$=10^{-12} \mathrm{W} / \mathrm{m}^{2}$
i.e., $40=10 \log _{10}\left(\frac{I_{1}}{I_{0}}ight) \ldots .(i)$
and $20=10 \log _{10}\left(\frac{I_{2}}{I_{0}}ight) \ldots(ii)$
$\frac{(i)}{(ii)} \Rightarrow \frac{40}{20}=\log _{10}\left(\frac{I_{1}}{I_{2}}ight)$
$2=\log _{10}\left(\frac{I_{1}}{I_{2}}ight) \quad$ or $\frac{I_{1}}{I_{2}}=10^{2}$
$	herefore \frac{\mathrm{r}_{2}^{2}}{\mathrm{r}_{1}^{2}}=10^{2}\left(	ext { since } \mathrm{I} \propto \frac{1}{\mathrm{r}^{2}}ight)$
$\mathrm{r}_{2}^{2}=10^{2} \mathrm{r}_{1}^{2}$ or $\mathrm{r}_{2}=10 \mathrm{r}_{1}=10 	imes 1=10 \mathrm{m}$

A person speaking normally produces a sound intensity of $40\, dB$ at a distance of $1\, m$. If the threshold intensity for reasonable audibility is $20\,dB$, the maximum distance at which he can be heard clearly is ..... $m$
