A skyrocket explodes 100 m above the ground (Fig. P14.18). Threeobservers are spaced 100 m apart, with the first (A) directly underthe point of the explosion.

(a) What is the ratio of sound intensities heard by observer A tothat heard by observer B? A/B =

(b) What is the ratio of intensities heard by observer A to thatheard by observer C?

Two identical loudspeakers are placed on a wall 2.00 m apart. A listener stands 3.00 m from the wall directly in front of one of the speakers. A single oscillator is driving the speakers at a frequency of 300 Hz. (a) What is the phase difference in radians between the waves from the speakers when they reach the observer?  (b) What is the frequency closest to 300 Hz to which the oscillator may be adjusted such that the observer hears the minimal sound?
