Sound Intensity given Sound Level in Decibels Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Sound Intensity Level = (Standard Sound Intensity)*10^(Sound Level in Decibels/10)
I = (I_o)*10^(L/10)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Sound Intensity Level - (Measured in Watt per Square Meter) - The Sound Intensity Level refers to the logarithmic measure of the sound power per unit area, expressed in decibels (dB).
Standard Sound Intensity - (Measured in Watt per Square Meter) - The Standard Sound Intensity refers to the reference sound power per unit area, typically taken as watts per square meter.
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

Standard Sound Intensity: 1E-12 Watt per Square Meter --> 1E-12 Watt per Square Meter No Conversion Required
Sound Level in Decibels: 20 Decibel --> 20 Decibel No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

I = (I_o)*10^(L/10) --> (1E-12)*10^(20/10)

Evaluating ... ...

I = 1E-10

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1E-10 Watt per Square Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1E-10 Watt per Square Meter <-- Sound Intensity Level

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)
