A) \[10\]
B) \[200\]
C) \[100\]
D) \[400\]
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Let \[{{L}_{1}}=10\log \left( \frac{{{I}_{1}}}{{{I}_{0}}} \right)\] and \[{{L}_{2}}=10\log \left( \frac{{{I}_{2}}}{{{I}_{0}}} \right)\] Therefore, difference of sound levels \[\Delta L={{L}_{2}}-{{L}_{1}}=10\log \left( \frac{{{I}_{2}}}{{{I}_{1}}} \right)\] Now,\[40=10\log \left( \frac{{{I}_{2}}}{{{I}_{1}}} \right)=20\log \left( \frac{{{P}_{2}}}{{{P}_{1}}} \right)\]\[[\because \,\,I\propto {{P}^{2}}]\] or \[\frac{40}{20}=\log \left( \frac{{{P}_{2}}}{{{P}_{1}}} \right)or\frac{{{P}_{2}}}{{{P}_{1}}}={{(10)}^{2}}=100\]
