The faintest sound the human ear can detect at a frequency of 1kHz (for which the ear is most sensitive) corresponds to an intensity of about 10^(-12)W//m^2(the so called threshold of hearing). Determine the pressure amplitude and maximum displacement associated with this sound assuming the density of air = 1.3kg//m^2 and velocity of sound in air = 332 m/s
