    How does a 30dB reduction in middle ear function affect sound energy to the cochlea?

    but once again , cause I don't think I understand it.. I have this formula LB=log10p1/p0 so I have 30 dB so it is 3 B and now why p1/po is 1?

    How does a 30dB reduction in middle ear function affect sound energy to the cochlea?

    L(B)=log10*I/Io but i wonder if there is no amplification we have 1 dB ,haven't we? so why is not it just reduced by 30 times?

    How does a 30dB reduction in middle ear function affect sound energy to the cochlea?

    logarithmic unit of ratio of intensity to standard threshold of hearing(10^-12) dB=log^10*I/Io

    How does a 30dB reduction in middle ear function affect sound energy to the cochlea?

    Homework Statement Hei! I have problem with this quest: Middle ear amplifies the sound waves entering cochlea by 30dB. This means that in case of total dysfunction of ossicles the sound energy transferred into cochlea is reduced: a)3 times b)30 times c)1000 times d)3000 times I don...
