1. A howler monkey is the loudest land animal and, under some circumstances, can be heard up to a distance of 6.78 km. Assume the acoustic output of a howler to be uniform in all directions and that the threshold of hearing is 1.0 × 10^12 W/m2. The acoustic power, in mW, emitted by the howler is closest to 2. The sound from a single source can reach point O by two different paths. One path is 19.9 m long...
