Hullo! Physics student here! I'm struggling to figure out how to go about answering this question ): In one study of an adult bat, with a mass of 3.3 g and a wingspan of 111 mm, scientists found that this bat emitted a high-pitched sound that travelled 25.5 m in 78.7 ms. Calculate the speed of sound (in m/s) in this situation. Hint: Enter only the numerical part of your answer rounded to the nearest integer.

In a big group of people, each one is are talking with the same loudness. If 7575 % of the people stop talking at the same time, how many decibels the sound loudness will be decreased? Sound intensity (loudness) is defined by β=10dBlog10(II0)β=10dBlog10⁡(II0) where I0I0 is a reference intensity and II is the sound loudness. Give the answer in decibels without decimals.
