    Answer: the intensity of sound at a rock concert will be 6.31 * 10^12 time louder than that of a whisper.

    Explanation: Given that sound at a rock concert power is 130 dB of intensity l2

    a whisper power is 2 dB of intensity l1

    Using the formula

    130dB - 2dB = 10Log (I2/I1)

    128/10 = logI2/I1

    12.8 = log (I2/I1)

    I2/I1 = 6.31 * 10^12

    Therefore, the intensity of sound at a rock concert will be 6.31 * 10^12 time louder than that of a whisper.
