Answer

The pressure amplitude is $~~0.892~Pa$

Work Step by Step

In part (b), we found that $s_m = 171~nm$ We can find the pressure amplitude $p_m$: $p_m = s_m~v~\rho~\omega$ $p_m = s_m~v~\rho~2\pi~f$ $p_m = (171\times 10^{-9}~m)~(343~m/s)(1.21~kg/m^3)~(2\pi)(2000~Hz)$ $p_m = 0.892~Pa$ The pressure amplitude is $~~0.892~Pa$
