The intensity ratio of two waves is $1 : 16$. The ratio of their amplitudes is

$A$ musical instrument $P$ produces sound waves of frequency $n$ and amplitude $A_P$. Another musical instrument $Q$ produces sound waves of frequency $\frac{n}{4}$. The waves produced by $P$ and $Q$ have equal energies. If the amplitude of waves produced by $P$ is $A_P$,the amplitude of waves produced by $Q$ will be: (in $A_P$)

There is a long linear source of sound whose power is $P$ and length is $L$. At point $A$,the sound level is $80 \ dB$. Then at point $B$,the sound level will be .... $dB$.

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

$A$ point source emits sound equally in all directions in a non-absorbing medium. Two points $P$ and $Q$ are at a distance of $9 \ m$ and $25 \ m$ respectively from the source. The ratio of the amplitudes of the waves at $P$ and $Q$ is
