Calculate the change in intensity level when the intensity of sound increases by `10^(6)` times its original intensity.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To calculate the change in intensity level when the intensity of sound increases by \(10^6\) times its original intensity, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between intensity and decibels The intensity level \(L\) in decibels (dB) is given by the formula: \[ L = 10 \log_{10} \left( \frac{I}{I_0} \right) \] where \(I\) is the intensity of the sound and \(I_0\) is a reference intensity. ...
