hi! i have a problem regarding maximum exposure time to different sound levels.
lets say you are allowed to be exposed to a sound level of 90 decibels for a maximum of 8 hours
for every 5 decibels above 90 decibels, the maximum allowable exposure time is halved. so if the sound level is 95 decibels, you can only be exposed to it for 4 hours. if sound level is 100 decibels, only 2 hours. On the contrast, for every 5 decibels below 90 decibels, maximum exposure time is doubled. so, you can be exposed to 85 decibels for 16 hours, 80 decibels for 32 hours, and so on. what is the function or equation that will relate the sound level to maximum exposure time? really need help with this please
