Solve the problem.Use the formula D = 10.0 log (S/S0), where the loudness of a sound in decibels is determined by S, the number of watt/m2 produced by the soundwave, and S0 = 1.00 × 10-12 watt/m2. A certain noise measures 102 decibels. If the intensity is multiplied by 10, how many decibels will the new noise measure? (Round to an appropriate number of significant digits.)

A. 102 decibels
B. 103 decibels
C. 112 decibels
D. 1020 decibels
