6dB pad introduces how much attenuation?

Answer Posted / gulzar ahmed khan lodhi

If you are talking about power,
a -3db gain or 3dB attenuation cuts the signal power
in half i.e. signal becomes 50% in power.

3dB attenuation = 50% of original
6 db attenuation = 50% of 50% = 25% of original power

So, 6dB attenuation or -6dB Gain is Actually makes signal 25% of original power.
Or in other words 6dB= 75% attenuation.

Alok and Bhanu play the following min-max game. Given the expression N = 9 + X + Y - Z Where X, Y and Z are variables representing single digits (0 to 9), Alok would like to maximize N while Bhanu would like to minimize it. Towards this end, Alok chooses a single digit number and Bhanu substitutes this for a variable of her choice (X, Y or Z). Alok then chooses the next value and Bhanu, the variable to substitute the value. Finally Alok proposes the value for the remaining variable. Assuming both play to their optimal strategies, the value of N at the end of the game would be 27 0.0 20 18
