Depending on the type of aircraft and it's distance from you, usually more than 100 decibels.
a jet plane at a takeoff at 100 yards is 120 dB loud
On takeoff, anywhere from 140 - 150 dB.
A jet enjine at take-off measures 113 decibels, while a surprised pig can squeal at 115 decibels.
140db rating the same as a gun going off or a Top fuel dragster. jackhammers are at 130db for comparison.
Yes, the space shuttle is louder than a typical jet engine. During launch, the space shuttle's main engines produce around 200 decibels of sound, whereas a jet engine typically generates around 140 decibels.
20 decibels
That depends how close you measure to the jet. The closer - the louder! The distance is very important if you measure with a sound pressure level meter.
207 decibels.
A handgun shot typically ranges from about 140 to 170 decibels, depending on the type of firearm and ammunition used. This level of sound can cause immediate hearing damage without proper ear protection. For comparison, a jet engine at takeoff is around 140 decibels, highlighting the intensity of gunfire noise.
Power (Watts)/ Decibels (if the speaker is efficient) 2 Watts = 93 decibels 4 Watts = 96 decibels 8 Watts = 99 decibels 16 Watts = 102 decibels 32 Watts = 105 decibels 64 Watts = 108 decibels 128 Watts = 111 decibels 256 Watts = 114 decibels 512 Watts= 117 decibels 1024 Watts = 120 decibels Some Volumes to Compare 10 decibels = normal human breathing 60 decibels = normal human conversation 110 decibels = power saw, car horn, shouting in ear, 120 decibels = jet aircraft close by, emergency vehicle siren, rock concert
70-100 decibels
The sound of a normal conversation is 60dB (decibels) and a close range jet is 140dB. This makes a jet at close range over 2 times as many decibels than a close range jet. The sound of a normal conversation is 60dB (decibels) and a close range jet is 140dB. This makes a jet at close range over 2 times as many decibels than a normal conversation. The above answer is FALSE: The decibel scale is logarithmic and thus a 140 dB sound would be 10^14 above 0 decibel; the 60 dB sound would be 10^6 above 0 decibel. Thus the close range jet is around 10^(14 - 6) = 10^8, or 100,000,000 times the loudness of a normal conversation.
