Math

Sound wave has its own intensity which is defined by common word sound level. Sound pressure in any media is not constant. It changes continuously. For that we have acoustic pressure (P) which is the difference between the instantaneous and the average pressure. Particle displacement (ξ) is particles distance of a movement from an equilibrium position (spot where wave hits first). With these two characteristics we can calculate intensity is gotten by following pattern:

Sound level is gotten by following pattern:

Speed of sound table:

of a sound (I) which is the transferred power per unit area. 

Acoustic pressure:

I=Pξ 

Sound intensity level (SIL) is logarithm of ratio of sound intensity to sound intensity standard reference value (I₀).
