- If a sound with a singular frequency of 534 has an measured intensity of 9.11 x 10-5 w when at a distance of 5.8 m from the source, what is the decibel level when at a distance of 10.6 m from the source?A typical adult ear has a surface area of 1.36 × 10-3 m2. The sound intensity during a normal conversation is about 3.78 × 10-6 W/m2 at the listener's ear. Assume that the sound strikes the surface of the ear perpendicularly. How much power is intercepted by the ear? number unitsBecause the human ear is so sensitive to sounds, it can detect very small intensities. The lower intensity that a human can hear (which is represented with the symbol I0 ) is about 1x10-12 W/m2. However, a loud music venue may have sounds that are near 1.0 W/m2 (though sound as this intensity would cause permanent damage to your ears). Because the human ear can detect frequencies over such a large range of intensities, more often a sound intensity level is used. This level is defined as: β=10⋅log10II0 and the unit is dB which stands for deci-bels (or just decibels). If a person speaks with an intensity of 2.443 μ W/m2, what is the sound intensity level in decibels? Note: In the space below, please enter you numerical answer. Do not enter any units. If you enter units, your answer will be marked as incorrect.

Assume the standard dB level scale where the reference intensity is 1 x 10-12 W/m2A noise has an intensity of 2.4×10-8 W/m2. If the threshold of human hearing is I0 = 1.0×10-12 W/m2, calculate the sound intensity level in dB. Use two digits of precision for your answer.
- 12 gives the loudness of sound L (in dB) based on the intensity of sound I (in W/m²). The value I = 10 The formula L=10 log threshold for hearing for midfrequency sounds. Hearing impairment is often measured according to the minimal sound level (in dB) detected by an individual for sounds at various frequencies. For one frequency, the table depicts the level of hearing impairment. Category Mild Moderate Moderately severe Severe Profound Loudness (dB) 26≤L≤40 41≤L≤55 56≤L≤70 71 ≤L≤90 L>90 W/m is the minimal (a) If the minimum intensity heard by an individual is 9421.4 x 108 W/m², determine if the individual has a hearing impairment. Round to the nearest tenth. (b) If the minimum loudness of sound detected by an individual is 40 dB, determine the corresponding intensity of sound.The difference in two sound levels, β1 and β2, in decibels (dB), is given by the logarithmic equationβ2 − β1 = 10 log ( I2/,I1) where I2/I1 is the ratio of their intensities. a) The sound level of a jet at take off is 140 dB, while the level of a normal conversation is 50 dB.
