Question
The intensity of sound gets reduced by 10% on passing through a slab. The reduction in intensity on passing through three consecutive slab is
- 30%
- 27.1%
- 20%
- 36%
The correct answer is: 27.1%
Reduction in intensity after passing through first slab is
Of I=0.9I
After second slab, intensity
=90% of (0.9I)
=81% of I
=0.81I
After third slab, intensity =90% of (0.81I)
=72.9% of I
∴ reduction in intensity =27.1%
