18. Decibel Levels The relationship between the intensity of sound (W/m2) and the
(64) distance from the source of the sound is represented by the equation I = _k . If you
d2
sit only 1 meter away from the stage at a rock concert, the intensity of sound is
about 0.1 W/m2. If Vanessa does not want the sound intensity to be any more than 0.0001 W/m2, how close to the stage can she sit?
