$A$ wave can transmit ...... from one place to another.

Statement-$1$: Two longitudinal waves given by equations $y_1(x, t) = 2a \sin(\omega t - kx)$ and $y_2(x, t) = a \sin(2\omega t - 2kx)$ will have equal intensity.
Statement-$2$: Intensity of waves of given frequency in the same medium is proportional to the square of amplitude only.

Two waves represented by the following equations are travelling in the same medium: $y_1 = 5\sin 2\pi (75t - 0.25x)$ and $y_2 = 10\sin 2\pi (150t - 0.50x)$. The intensity ratio $I_1/I_2$ of the two waves is:

If the distance between the source and the screen is increased by $2\%$,what will be the effect on the intensity on the screen?
