Find how much sound energy is incident on the eardrum

Reference no: EM13647511

Hearing damage may occur when a person is exposed to a soundintensity level of 90.0 dB (relative to the threshold of humanhearing) for a period of 9.00 hours. An eardrum has an area of 1.72x 10-4 m2. How much sound energy is incident on the eardrum during this time?
