The sound of the eruption of Krakatoa travelled for thousands of miles. Far, far louder than any bomb.

Never forget to tell the distance of the measuring point from the sound source, because the closer you are to the eyplosion of the bomb or the eruption of the volcano the louder it will be.

The sound pressure level decreases by 6 dB per doubling of distance from the source to 1/2 (50 %) of the sound pressure initial value.

The sound pressure decreases inversely as the distance increases with 1/r from the sound source.
