The loudness of a sound of intensity x, measured in watts per square meter, is defined as L(x) = log (), where xo = 10-3.You have two friends, Jim and Amy. Jim always yells when he speaks, and Amy always whispers. The loudness of Jim's voice is 120 decibels, and the loudness of Amy's voice is 20 decibels. Determine how many times as intense Jim's voice is as compared at Amy's.

What will be an ideal response?


Jim's voice is 1010 times as intense as Amy's.
