$A$ surface of area $S$ is placed perpendicular to the direction of travel of a plane wave. The energy per unit time intercepted by the surface is $E$ when the amplitude of the wave is $A$. The area of the surface is reduced to $\frac{1}{2} S$ and the amplitude of the wave is increased to $2A$. What is the energy per unit time intercepted by this smaller surface?

The intensity of a sound wave while passing through an elastic medium falls by $10\%$ as it covers $1 \ m$ distance through the medium. If the initial intensity of the sound wave was $100 \ dB$,its value after it has passed through $3 \ m$ thickness of the medium will be .... $dB$.

Consider ten identical sources of sound,all emitting the same frequency but having random phase angles. If the average intensity of each source is $I_0$,what will be the average resultant intensity $I$ due to all these ten sources?
