Airliners taking off from City Central Airport produce a mean noise level of 108 dB (decibels), with a standard deviation of 6.7 dB. To encourage airlines to refit their aircraft with quieter engines, any airliners with a noise level above 120 dB must pay a “nuisance fee”. a. What percent of the airliners will be billed a nuisance fee? b. After two years, a sample of 1000 airliners showed that 3 were billed the nuisance fee. Assuming that the program...

A new airport is being built 650 meters away from a school. The noise level 50 meters away from planes that will land at the airport is 140 dB. In open space between the airport and the school, noise level decreases by 15 dB each time the distance increases tenfold. How far away would the school have to be moved to make the sound manageable? Give at least 2 options to reconcile the issue without moving the school or airport?

A fan at a rock concert is 40.0 m from the stage, and at this point the sound intensity level is 114 dB . Sound is detected when a sound wave causes the tympanic membrane (the eardrum) to vibrate. Typically, the diameter of this membrane is about 8.40 mm in humans. E = 13.9  μJ   v = 3.73  m/s   Part C How fast would a typical 2.0 mg mosquito would have to fly (in mm/s) in order to have a kinetic energy...
