    A.

    depends on the height of the barrier wall

    B.

    does not follow a logarithmic function

    C.

    is directly proportional to the distance between the barrier and the receiving end

    D.

    is directly proportional to the wavelength of sound

    Correct option is A


    Noise reduction due to the construction of the barrier wall:

    Where R = Distance between source and wall.
    H = Height of barrier wall.
    λ = Wavelength of sound.
