Solve the problem.The loudness of a sound is measured in decibels (dB). The loudness L of a sound is related to its intensity I by the equation
where I0 = 10-12 watts per square meter (W/m2) is the intensity of the faintest sound the human ear can detect. Find the dB level of a radio at average volume from 9 feet away when it has an intensity of
W/m2.
A. ? 63 dB
B. ? 73 dB
C. ? 53 dB
D. ? 43 dB
