Homework Statement
You are L = 3 m away from a pair of speakers playing a pure tone separated by a distance of d = 1 m. If you walk from the center to a distance of y = 0.75 m, you hear the intensity decrease to zero, then increase all the way back to the initial volume.

Homework Statement
I need to determine B(rms) in terms of E(max) given a standard E-M wave.
Homework Equations
E = cB
The Attempt at a Solution
I assumed that B(max) is sqrt(2) x B(rms) and then just plugged in for B(max) in the equation above. Am I right in assuming the rms...
