Question 559328: A constant tone is being applied to a speaker. The voltage across the speaker is 5 volts. The voltage across the speaker is increased to 15 volts in order to increase the sound level. What is the decibel gain, rounded to the nearest decibel?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! A constant tone is being applied to a speaker. The voltage across the speaker is 5 volts. The voltage across the speaker is increased to 15 volts in order to increase the sound level. What is the decibel gain, rounded to the nearest decibel?
:
db = 20*log
db = 20*log(3)
db = 20*.477
db = 9.54 ~ 10 db gain
