Your friend is belching the alphabet. Where you are standing, a distance of 2 meters from your friend, the peak sound level of their belching is 68.2 dB. You would like to move far enough away from them that you won’t have to hear their belching. Assuming that the belch noises approximate spherical waves, how far should you stand from your friend in order for the peak intensity of the sound to be the threshold of hearing, 10^−12 W/m2?
