There are several words, depending on exactly what is being measured (e.g. amplitude, volume, sound pressure, decibels).

What is the loudness or strength of a sound?

AMPLITUDE


The loudness or strength of a sound is its?

intensity. :)


The loudness of a sound is related to what?

Loudness is the quality of a sound that is the primary psychological correlate of physical strength or amplitude. Loudness is a subjective felt impression and is in some way related to the objective measure of sound pressure.


What is call of loudness or softness of a sound?

Volume


What does the amplitude of a sound wave determine?

Amplitude is the energy of a sound wave, which we also call Loudness


What units is the loudness of sound measured?

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"


What is the unit of the loudness of sound?

Loudness is the quality of a sound that is primarily a psychological correlate of physical strength or amplitude. You can try to measure the sound pressure in decibels. Scroll down to related links and look at "Loudness in sones - Wikipedia ", Loudness level in phon - Wikipedia ", and Subjectivly sensed loudness (volume), objectively measured sound pressure (voltage).


What is meant by the loudness of sound?

Loudness is the quality of a sound that is the primary psychological correlate of physical strength (amplitude). It is a feeling, which is neither the sound pressure as field quantity nor the acoustic intensity as energy quantity. Scroll down to related links and look at "Loudness - Wikipedia".


The loudness of a sound is referred to as?

Loudness is the quality of a sound that is the primary psychological correlate of physical strength or amplitude. Loudness is a subjective felt impression and is in some way related to the objective measure of the sound pressure. Neither our ear drums nor the microphone diaphragms can convert acoustic intensity. Therefore only use the sound pressure for measuring. To measure the loudness feeling is a difficult thing. The loudness of 1 sone equals the loudness level of 40 phons (at 1 kHz).


The loudness of a persons voice depends on?

Loudness is the quality of a sound that is the primary psychological correlate of physical strength or amplitude. Loudness is also affected by parameters other than sound pressure, including frequency and duration.


How are intensity magnitude and loudness related to each other?

Loudness of sound means the physical strength or amplitude. It is a subjective measure, which is very often confused with objective measures of sound pressure or sound pressure level. The SPL meter is a good helper.


What property of sound describes your awareness of the energy of a sound?

loudness
