10^5/ln10105ln10.

Explanation:

beta=10log_10 (I/10^-16)=10log_10(10^16I)β=10log10(I1016)=10log10(1016I).

Using the Usual Rules of loglog functions,

beta=10{log_10 10^16+log_10I}β=10{log101016+log10I},

=10{16log_10 10+log_10 I}=10{16log1010+log10I},

=10{16+log_10 I}=10{16+log10I}.

=160+10log_10I=160+10log10I.

Here, by the Change of Base Rule, log_10I=lnI/ln10log10I=lnIln10

rArr beta=160+10/ln10*lnI....................(ast).

Now, the reqd. rate=[(dbeta)/(dI)]_(I=10^-4)

From (ast), (dbeta)/(dI)=0+10/ln10*1/I.

:."The Reqd. Rate"=[10/ln10*1/I]_(I=10^-4),

=10/ln10*1/10^-4,

=10^5/ln10.
