$A$ travelling wave is partly reflected and partly transmitted from a rigid boundary. Let $a_i, a_r$ and $a_t$ be the amplitudes of the incident wave,reflected wave,and transmitted wave,and $I_i, I_r$ and $I_t$ be the corresponding intensities. Choose the correct alternative.

The intensity level at a distance of $200 \ cm$ from a sound source is $80 \ dB$. If there is no loss of acoustic power in the air and the threshold intensity of hearing is $10^{-12} \ W/m^2$,what is the intensity level at a distance of $400 \ cm$ from the source (in $dB$)?
