Solution

The correct option is B

30-60 dB


The human ear offers a fixed area (the ear drum) for detection of sounds in the environment. Intensity is the amount of energy transmitted per second over an area of a square meter. The weakest audible sound is roughly 0 dB​ and a whispered voice is 1000 times more intense or 30 dB​ higher. The intensity of sound in normal conversation is 30-60 dB.
