For a person with normal hearing, the faintest sound that can be heard at a frequency of 400 Hz has a pressure amplitude of about 6.0×10−5 Pa6.0 \times 10^{-5} \text{ Pa} . Calculate the corresponding intensity and sound intensity level at 20∘C20^\circ \text{C} . (Assume v=330 m/sv = 330 \text{ m/s} and ρair=1.29 kg/m3\rho_{\text{air}} = 1.29 \text{ kg/m}^3 ).
