Which of the following is true about a zero decibel sound level

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 11-05-14] [Hit: ]
That is, both the Output and input in terms of intensity or pressure or wattage...Decibel =0 decibelis theanswernon of which matches with A) to D). Thank you.......
A) is nonsense
B) is just at the threshold of hearing
C) has zero amplitude
D) none of the above

-
B.
0dB sound level is 10^-12W/sq.m - about the threshold of hearing.

Decibel = 10 log(Intensity1/intensity2) = 20 log(Pressure1/Pressure2) {because intensity is proportional to the pressure squared.}
Now, If Intensity1 = Intensity2 or Pressure1 = Pressure2,
Then, decibel = 10 log 1/1 = 10 log1 = 10 *0 =0 decibel, Now think over it,
That is, both the Output and input in terms of intensity or pressure or wattage...
Decibel =0 decibel is the answer non of which matches with A) to D). Thank you.

b

C is the answer
