How does the distance between the listener and a sound affect the loudness?

Mark as brainliest Explanation:
The most famous is probably the loudness constancy e ect revealed by Zahorik & Wightman (Zahorik and Wightman, 2001) , who showed that the loudness of a sound source whose distance from the observer was varied did not change much (although the sound pressure level at the ears indeed decreased with distance).

Explanation:
The most famous is probably the loudness constancy e ect revealed by Zahorik & Wightman (Zahorik and Wightman, 2001) , who showed that the loudness of a sound source whose distance from the observer was varied did not change much (although the sound pressure level at the ears indeed decreased with distance).
As distance from the sound source increases, the area covered by the sound waves increases. The same amount of energy is spread over a greater area, so the intensity and loudness of the sound is less. This explains why even loud sounds fade away as you move farther from the source.
