Based on what you learned from the problem you solved with your group, you will submit a written report describing your solution to a similar problem, below. The report is due on the last day of the module (Sunday at 11:59pm).
The problem you must solve is:
- How many times louder is a 60 dB sound than a 20 dB sound?
- How many times more energy is released by a magnitude 6 earthquake than by a magnitude 2 earthquake?
- When you are 2 meters away from the speakers at a concert, the sound level is 130 db. How far away should you sit to reduce the level to 110 dB?
To get full credit for this write-up, you should:
- Answer all parts of the problem.
- Show your justification for every step in your solution. Use clear, mathematically accurate language.
- Label all numbers with the units they represent (e.g., 0.3048 ft/meter).
- Clearly state your conclusions using complete English sentences (for example, "Jill needs to add 43 gallons of water to her pool").
