D=10log(I/10^12), where I is the sound intensity measured in watts per square meter. Find the decibel level of a whisper at an intensity of 5.4 x 10^10 watts per square meter.
\n" ); document.write( "----------
\n" ); document.write( "D=10log[5.4x 10^10/10^12]
\n" ); document.write( "D=10log[5.4 x 10^-2]
\n" ); document.write( "D=10log[0.054]
\n" ); document.write( "D=10(-1.2676...)
\n" ); document.write( "D=-12.676...
