The following physics responses are provided by a student and, as such, should be considered in that context. While every effort is made for accuracy, absolute correctness cannot be fully guaranteed.
If I0 = 10^-12 W/m2 is the threshold of hearing, a sound with intensity I1 = 10^-11 W/m2 will give a certain decibel level. Suppose a new sound has an intensity I2 = I1^2/I0. What is the new decibel level?
