The intensity of a light pulse travelling along a communication channel decreases exponentially with distance $x$ according to the relation $I = {I_0}{e^{ - \alpha x}}$ , where $I_0$ is the intensity at $x = 0$ and $\alpha $ is the attenuation constant. The attenuation in $dB/km$ for an optical fibre in which the intensity falls by $50$ percent over a distance of $50\ km$ is
