an equation for loudness, in decibles, is L=10log10 R where R is the relative intensity of the sound. Sounds that reach levels of 120 decibles or more are painful to humans what is the relative intensity of 120 decibles

Respuesta :

Considering the logarithmic loudness equation, the relative intensity of 120 decibels is of [tex]R = 10^{12}[/tex].

What is the logarithmic loudness equation?

The equation is:

[tex]L = 10\log{R}[/tex]

In which:

  • L is the loudness, in decibels.
  • R is the relative intensity.

For this problem, we have that L = 120, hence the relative intensity is found as follows:

[tex]120 = 10\log{R}[/tex]

[tex]\log{R} = 12[/tex]

[tex]R = 10^{12}[/tex]
