cannon is fired some distance away from you, and you wishto estimate that distance by determining how much soundenergy enters your ear. (a) How does the sound energydepend on the distance between the cannon and your ear?(b) Now you use the dependence you described in part a tojudge how far away the cannon is. First you estimate the distanceassuming that none of the energy in the sound wavesis dissipated (into, say, random motion of the molecules thatmake up the air), and then you repeat the estimate assumingthat some of the sound energy is dissipated. Is your first estimatehigher or lower than your second estimate?
