Root Mean Square Pressure when Sound Pressure Level Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Pressure RMS in Micropascal = (20*10^(-6))*10^(Sound Level in Decibels/20)
P_m = (20*10^(-6))*10^(L/20)
This formula uses 2 Variables

Variables Used

Pressure RMS in Micropascal - (Measured in Pascal) - The Pressure RMS in Micropascal refers to the root mean square value, it is the local pressure deviation from the ambient atmospheric pressure, caused by a sound wave.
Sound Level in Decibels - (Measured in Decibel) - Sound Level in Decibels (dB) is the logarithmic measure of the ratio of a particular sound pressure to a reference sound pressure.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Sound Level in Decibels: 20 Decibel --> 20 Decibel No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

P_m = (20*10^(-6))*10^(L/20) --> (20*10^(-6))*10^(20/20)

Evaluating ... ...
