What is the unit for measuring the volume of sound?
There are two: the bel, or more commonly, the decibel, which is a logrithmic representation of the pressure of a sound, and the phon, which is a measure of how loud a sound is perceived.
What type of scale is the decibel scale?
The decibel scale is a logarithmic scale. Scroll down to related links and look at "Decibel - Wikipedia" and "Sound level meter - Wikipedia".
What is the length of the rectangle if the perimeter is 60cm and is twice its width?
The length is 20cm and the width is 10cm P = 2l + 2w 60 = 2l + 2w 30 = l + w 30 = 2w + w 30 = 3w w = 10 30 = l + w 30 = l + 10 l = 20
What does the L in front of the serial number on a Winchester 94 30 30 mean?
It looks like an L, but, it is a one.
What is the answer to the question the length of a rectangle is four times more than its width If the perimeter is 30 cm what are the length and width of the rectangle?
Length (l) is 4 x width (w). If 2 lengths and 2 widths equals perimeter, then 2l+2w=30 cm. Substituting 4w for l, you get 2(4w) + 2w = 30 cm. So in solving, 10w=30 cm; w=3. Then solve for l: 4w=l; l=12. Then check your answer: 2(l=12) + 2(w=3)= 30; 24=6=30 cm.
Is a decibel an orchestral instrument?
A Zymbal is a musical instrument.... Decibel is a unit of measurement for how loud its sound is :-)
What can be measured with a decibel meter?
A decibel meter is used to measure sound. It is a handheld device and can be used to quickly measure how loud certain sounds are. They are sometimes used to measure how loud a crowd is in sports.

What unit of measurement do you use to measure how loud a sound is?
Decibell
What is the unit of measure for loudness?
Decibels are the measure of how loud something is.
Why do you use logarithm to calculate gain of amplifiers?
Audio engineers talk about the "JND", which stands for "just notiecable difference", which is a 3 decibel gain. That 3 decibel gain requires a doubling of amplifier power. For an amp to sound, subjectively, "twice as loud" requires a tenfold increase in power (300 watts instead of 30 watts).The decibel scale is logarithmic, not arithmetic.
At what decibel level do sounds become very loud?
120 decibels is the sound of a jet engine, or the volume of loud rock music at a concert.
How would you compare loud sounds from loud sounds?
Sound is measured in Decibels. This is judged based on the human hearing. You can use a decibel meter to detect just how loud a sound is.
What is 36 decibel?
'decibel' means power level compared to something else. +36 dB = 3,981 times as much power as whatever it's compared to.
What dercibes how loud or soft a sound is?
Sound is measured in Decibels. This is judged based on the human hearing. You can use a decibel meter to detect how loud a sound is.
How loud or quite a sound is?
All I can think of that you might be asking is what is it measured in, and that would be the unit of the decibel (dB)
Is loud an abstract noun?
The word 'loud' is not a noun, it is an adjective used to describe a noun as a sound that is strong or intense; a vulgarly obtrusive or flashy appearance.The noun form for the adjective loud is loudness, a concrete noun; a word for the decibel level of sound, a physical characteristic.
