The unit measurement for sound can be expressed in terms of intensity and in decibels. The intensity of sound is the measure of its power over unit area. The common unit of measurement is in decibels. This is commonly used in measuring the extent of noise. The conversion from intensity to the decibel unit is through logarithmic function. The formula is:

dB = 10 log(I/I0), where I0 is 10^-12 Watts per square meter

Substituting the values to the equation,

84 = 10log(I/10^-12)
I = 0.0002512 W/m2

In scientific notation the intensity is 2.512 x 10^-4 W/m^2.

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Technician A

Explanation:

It is seen that a tire pressure will increase or decrease 1 psi for each 10^{\circ} F  change in temperature.

For Technician B vehicle pressure should not be adjusted after tire has been warmed as the warm air may increase the pressure but it will be auto adjusted as  the temperature falls to normal .
