The Physic Concepts in the Designing of Concert Halls
A very important but little known acoustical phenomena is the Inverse Square Law. As a sound wave propagates spherically, the sound energy is distributed over the ever-increasing surface diameter of the wave front surface. So, when the distance from the source is doubled, the energy carried by the sound is spread over double the distance in all directions, or four times the original area. This means that the intensity will be reduced to a quarter
