Solution

The correct option is B False
Usually, at the night, atmosphere is clean relative two days because of pollution other regular activities. When the fixed amplitude sound is produced with an instrument, the sound hear by the observer at a fixed distance will be different because pollution available in the atmosphere will absorb some of its energy.
But if the day is also clean as night then there will be no difference in the sound quality received by the observer. Hence given statement is false.
