\begin{aligned} & (\Delta P)_{\text {max }}=B A K \\ \therefore \quad & A=\frac{(\Delta P)_{\text {max }}}{B K}-\left ( 1 \right ) \end{aligned}\\\\ Here, \: v=\sqrt{\frac{B}{\rho}}=\frac{\omega}{k}\\\\\ \therefore \quad k=\omega \sqrt{\frac{\rho}{B}}=2 \pi f \sqrt{\frac{\rho}{B}}\\\\ \text{further,} B=\rho r^2\\\\ \text{substituting in equation (1) we get}\\\\\ A=\frac{(\Delta P)_{\text {max }}}{2 \pi f \sqrt{B \rho}}=\frac{(\Delta P)_{\text {max }}}{2 \pi f \rho V}\\\\ \text {substituting the values, we here}\\\\ A=\frac{30}{2 \pi \times 10^3 \times 1.5 \times 300}=\frac{10^{-4}}{3 \pi} \mathrm{m}
