The loudness, L, measured in decibels (Db), of a sound intensity, I, measured in watts per square meter, is defined as L = 10 log StartFraction I Over I 0 EndFraction, where I 0 = 10 Superscript negative 12 and is the least intense sound a human ear can hear. Jessica is listening to soft music at a sound intensity level of 10-9 on her computer while she does her homework.
