Sound Waves
Power, Intensity, and the Inverse
Square Law
Problem:
• A person is standing beside a speaker as it
plays a 10,000 Hz tone. The sound waves
travel away from the speaker uniformly in all
directions. If the distance from the speaker
doubles, then the amplitude of the waves that
the person observes:
Key Equations:
• 𝐼 =
1
2
𝜌𝑣𝜔 2
𝑠 𝑚
2
• 𝐼 =
𝑃
4𝜋𝑟2
• sm is the amplitude of the sound wave
Ideas:
• by the inverse square law, radiated energy is
inversely proportional to the square of the
distance
• Energy for a sound wave is the intensity
• We are looking for the amplitude, so we find a
relation between the intensity and the
amplitude
Solution:
• Relate the two key equations and solve for
amplitude
•
1
2
𝜌𝑣𝜔 2
𝑠 𝑚
2
=
𝑃
4𝜋𝑟2
• 𝑠 𝑚
2
=
2𝑃
4𝜋𝑟2 𝜌𝑣𝜔 2
• We can rewrite this equation as:
𝑠 𝑚
2 =
1
𝑟2
×
2𝑃
4𝜋𝜌𝑣𝜔 2
Solution cont’d
• This shows that the term not involving r, the distance,
is a constant
• 𝑠 𝑚 =
1
𝑟2 ×
2𝑃
4𝜋𝜌𝑣𝜔 2
• From this equation we can see that the amplitude of
the sound wave decreases by a factor of
1
𝑟
• Because our distance is doubled, r = 2, meaning that
the amplitude of the sound wave that the person
observes is halved.
Concept extensions
• 𝑠 𝑚
2
=
2𝑃
4𝜋𝑟2 𝜌𝑣𝜔 2
• From this equation, we can see how the
amplitude of the sound wave will change with a
different independent variables
• For example, given two situations that have
similar wave speed, angular frequencies,
distances, and total power, if the sound wave
travels through a different medium, then the
wave amplitude would change by a factor of
1
∆𝜌
