Question: A compressor is to be used 3 0 m away from a house and a long, 2 m high barrier is to be erected 5

A compressor is to be used 30m away from a house and a long, 2m high barrier is to be erected 5m from the compressor to reduce the noise. The ground between the compressor and the house is hard, flat and level. The centre of the compressor is 0.5m above the ground. Calculate the noise reduction produced by the barrier at a height of 1.5m above the ground at the house. The velocity of sound is 330ms.(Octave band, Hz; 125,250,500,1000,2000,4000).
