decibal mesures the loudness of the sound
The loudness of the radio was measured at a high decibel level by the council authorities.
There are many methods of measuring the amplitude of sound waves.Amplitude corresponds to the loudness of the sound.
Loudness level LN is measured in phons and the Loudness N is measured in sones. Scroll down to related links and use the fine converter "Loudness level and loudness".
We use a logarithmic scale when there is a wide range of values, and when a change in a value depends not on the absolute size of the change but on proportion to the value itself. Adding 1 to a value is absolutely the same whether the original value is 1 or 1000, a linear scale makes sense. If doubling a value is just the same change whether is it from 1 to 2 or from 1000 to 2000, a logarithmic scale is appropriate. We are going to investigate the decibel scale for loudness. There are two reasons why a logarithmic scale is useful: Quantities of interest exhibit such ranges of variation that a dB scale is more convenient than a linear scale. For example, sound pressure radiated by a submarine may vary by eight orders of magnitude depending on direction. The human ear interprets changes in loudness within a logarithmic scale.

How do you use the word decibel in a sentence?What is decibel used for?
decibles(db)you choose the right answer, don't worry bye xxx

Say if you had a problem and it was 36.8 you would say thirty six and eight tenths after the decimal always has aTh's and the decimal u say and. Also the eighth is in the tenth place and say there was a zero in front of it, it would be hundredths and if there was two zeros it would be thousandths and so on it goes tenths hundredths thousandths ten thousandths hundred thousandths millionths ten millionths hundred millionths and billionth and then before the zero it is ones tens hundred thousands and so on!!!! hope this helps!!:)The answer above is totally irrelevant since it deals with deciamals, not decibels. A decibel is a measure of the volume (loudness) of sound. It is based on a logarithmic scale so that the doubling of the loudness of a sound is equivalent to an increase of 10 in the decibel count for the sound.

A bel. Or a decibel which is an exponential measure such that 10 dB is one tenth as loud as 1 B.
Units used to measure loudness are Sone (loudness N) and Phon (loudness level L). Scroll down to related links and look at "Loudness - Wikipedia" and "Sound level change and the change of the respective factor of volume and loudness".
use a decibel meter
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.

Decibel (dB) * The Bel is the primary unit. However, the scale is too large. So for human hearing, we use the deciBel, where each deciBel is 1/10 of a Bel. this is abbreviated dB.
