Homework Statement



A spherical sinusoidal source radiates sound uniformly in all directions. At a distance 10.0m the sound intensity level is 1.00 × 10−4 W/m2.

1. At what distance from the source is the intensity 1.00 × 10−6 W/m2?
A. 1 m
B. 10 m
C. 100 m
D. 1 km


2. What is the power radiated by this source?
A. Pav = 208 mW
B. Pav = 126 mW
C. Pav = 332 mW
D. Pav = 412 mW

I doubt the 2nd answer because I get 0.126 watt, but the answer is in megawatt
