Intensity can be measured by converting units of electrical power in to decibels.

What are the hammer anvil and stirrup?
These are very tiny bones in middle ear. They are attached to each other. Together they work to transmit the impulse from ear drum to the oval window. Ear drum is the partition between the external ear and middle ear. Oval window is the partition between the middle ear and inner ear. These very tiny bones enhance the intensity of the sound waves to large extent. That helps to hear the low intensity sound.
What sense of modality does the ear respond?
Mechanorecption & Propriorection
What main regioin of the human ear contains the ear canal?
Outer ear
What main region of the human ear contains the ear canal?
External ear contains ear canal.
What are facts about the human ear?
the middle ear is the smallest bone in the body
How does your ear respond to different sounds?
The ear responds logarithmically to different sounds. The ear which is divided into inner ear, outer ear and middle ear responds differently according to sound frequency and intensity.
What is the maximum and minimum intensity of sound that human call can ear?
20dB
What is the human perception of intensity?
Our ear drums with the ear/brain system are moved only by sound pressure motions. The sound pressure is the effect, but the sound power (sound intensity) of the source is the cause.
Can your ears respond to sound?
Most animal and human ears do respond to sounds. The outer portion of the ear functions to amplify sound waves, which are then processed inside the ear.

What is the difference between loudness and intensity?
Sound intensity or acoustic intensity can be calculated from the objective measurement of the sound pressure. The loudness is a psycho-acoustic subjective feeling, which is difficult to measure.
Human ear is sensite to sound intensity ranging from db?
The human is is not sensitive to sound intensity (energy), but the human ear is sensitive to sound pressure or to sound pressure level (SPL). It is ranging from 20 micropascals to 150 pascals, that is a SPL of 0 dB (threshold of hearing) to 137.5 dB (threshold of pain). Scroll down to related links and look at "Table of Sound Levels and corresponding Sound Pressure".
How will decreasing the amplitude of the sound waves from a TV affect its intensity?
Amplitude is intensity. It refers to the strength of a sound wave, which the human ear interprets as volume or loudness and if you decrease the amplitude you also decrease its intensity.
How can you know how many decibals your mp3 is sending into your ear?
It is how intensity is measured.

What do bats hate?
Being creatures of acute hearing sense, they particularly hate high intensity sounds that are beyond the hearing level of the human ear. Supersonic sound emitters can accomodate this.
How does intensity affects how you hear?
It's not the sound intensity I (acoustic intensity) as sound power quantity, it's the sound pressure p as sound field quantity, which moves you ear drums. I ~ p²
