Fundamentals : intensity and distance and amplitude

Location P : amplitude A , intensity I , distance 0.2m from source
Location Q : amplitude 2A, intensity ...????, distance ...????

Mental workout.
1 . Intensity at Q is 4I. (I proportional to amplitude square)
2. Location Q , the distance is half that of 0.2 which is 0.1m ( Intensity is inversely proportional of square radius(distance square)
