Go through the chart at the link below. Scan the whole chart; some levels are described more than once. Normal conversation is about 60 decibels, and ordinary piano practice is between 60 and 70 decibels.
Decibels
The sound pressure level of 80 dB is a 10 times higher measure than the sound pressure level of 60 dB. Louder ist not the correct word, because it belongs to psycho acoustics and tells the loudness feeling.
That depends how close you measure to the mouth of the human speaker. The closer - the louder! The distance is very important if you measure with a sound pressure level meter. At 1 meter distance the speaker may be measured at 60 decibels SPL.
45 decibels (meausurement of sound)
You measure the sound pressure with a sound pressure level meter (SPL meter).
A quiet conversation is about 60 decibels. The sound of rustling leaves is about 40 decibels. The sound of a mosquito at 3 meters is said to be about 1 decibel.
100 times intensity.
40 dB gain change should give about the ratio of 16 for sensed volume and loudness, 40 dB gain change gives the ratio of 100 for measured voltage and sound pressure and 40 dB gain change gives the ratio of 1000 for calculated sound power and acoustic intensity. Go to the link: Subjectively perceived loudness (volume), objectively measured sound pressure (voltage), and theoretically calculated sound intensity (acoustic power).
Decibels are a measurement of the loudness of sound.

in decibels and you can get hi-tech equipment that can tel you the intensity of the sound in decibels and hertz
decibels
A sound at 15 decibels is not very load. It is equivalent to the sound that watch makes when ticking.
If you would like to measure how loud the sound is, dB, decibels, would be good. To give you a rough idea, a whisper is about 30 dB, a baby crying loudly about 100 dB. Also, if you like to measure the frequency or the wavelength, you can use Hertz.
Sound is measured in decibels
