I have an image of a plot showing peak-to-peak velocity (mm/s) against frequency (Hz) on a log-log scale. The curve is defined by an accompanying sentence to the effect of "The amplitude is $x$ between $a$ Hz and $b$ Hz. The curves decrease below $a$ Hz and above $b$ Hz at $n$ dB per decade".
I am not able to share the actual image, but it looks something like this: (Not to scale, of course)

v [mm/s]|

1 100 1000 10 000
f [Hz]
How do I go about finding the y-coordinate of point p in mm/s? I know the x-coordinate of $p$ is 10000 Hz.
I am not sure how to convert the given gradient of dB per decade to mm/s per decade. I know the equation $\text{Gain}_\text{dB} = 10 \log_{10} (P/P_0)$, but I don't know what $P$ and $P_0$ are in my case.
Thanks!
