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?

Two waves are represented by
$y_1 = 5 \sin 2 \pi(75 t - 0.25 x)$
$y_2 = 10 \sin 2 \pi(150 t - 0.50 x)$
The intensity ratio $\frac{I_1}{I_2}$ of the two waves is

$A$ point source is emitting sound waves of intensity $16 \times 10^{-8} \text{ W m}^{-2}$ at a distance of $1 \text{ m}$ from the source. The difference in intensity (magnitude only) at two points located at distances of $2 \text{ m}$ and $4 \text{ m}$ from the source respectively will be . . . . . . $\times 10^{-8} \text{ W m}^{-2}$.

$A$ transverse wave is passing through a stretched string with a speed of $20 \ m/s$. The tension in the string is $20 \ N$. At a certain point $P$ on the string,it is observed that energy is being transferred at a rate of $40 \ mW$ at a given instant. Find the speed of point $P$.
