Answer

The displacement amplitude is $~~0.260~nm$

Work Step by Step

We can find the displacement amplitude $s_m$: $p_m = s_m v \rho \omega$ $s_m = \frac{p_m}{v \rho \omega}$ $s_m = \frac{p_m}{v \rho 2\pi f}$ $s_m = \frac{1.13\times 10^{-3}~Pa}{(343~m/s)(1.21~kg/m^3) (2\pi)(1665~Hz)}$ $s_m = 2.60\times 10^{-10}~m$ $s_m = 0.260~nm$ The displacement amplitude is $~~0.260~nm$
