The sound intensity 30 meters from a jet engine is 10 Watts per square meter. What is the sound intensity level, in decibels, at the specified location a = 10 log [ I / IO ] IO = 10-12 W/m2 I = 10 Watts a = 130 dB B. Without hearing protection, repeated exposure to sounds at or above 80 decibels can cause hearing loss. What minimum distance from the source (the jet engine) would a listener have to keep...
