The intensity of a sound wave while passing through an elastic medium falls by $10\%$ as it covers $1 \ m$ distance through the medium. If the initial intensity of the sound wave was $100 \ dB$,its value after it has passed through $3 \ m$ thickness of the medium will be .... $dB$.

  • A
    $70$
  • B
    $72.9$
  • C
    $81$
