Sound and Pitch, frequency, and complex sounds

Warming water with sound The sound intensity at a gasoline station next to a freeway averages 10-3 W/m2. The owner decides to collect this energy and convert it to thermal energy for heating his building. Assuming that this conversion is 100% efficient, what is the length of one side of a square sound collector that is needed to provide thermal energy at a rate of 500 W? Is this a practical idea for the owner? Explain.
