use a decibel meter
Take a sound pressure level meter and measure it. 95 decibels means over the is 0 decibels is the threshold of hearing. 95 decibels means the measure over 0 decibels.
A drum kit is no decibels. The decibels depends how close you measure to the bat. The closer - the louder! And the louder you play the more decibels you get. The distance is very important if you measure with a sound pressure level meter.
Decibels
sound
Decibels measure loudness by quantifying the intensity of sound waves. The higher the decibel level, the louder the sound.
Loudness or sound level is measured in units called decibels (dB).
Decibels/sound.
decibels
decibels measure the intensity of sound.
Decibels are the measure of how loud something is.
Decibels are really more a measure of sound level. 65 decibels would be about the level of normal conversation or laughter.
Why not. Go closer to the chimes and you will measure more decibels. The closer the louder.
