What does the the amplitude look like for a loud sound?

The amplitude of a sound wave is a measure of its loudness. A loud sound will have a higher amplitude.


How loud a sound is?

It is possible to measure the sound pressure with a SPL meter.


What term describes how loud a sound is?

The term that describes how loud a sound is is "volume." Volume is the measure of the intensity or amplitude of a sound, typically measured in decibels.


What is the sound of loud?

Sound is mechanical energy. As such, it presents as a force on us, particularly our ears. When we think of "loud" as it relates to sound, it is a relative term. A sneeze is loud compared to a pin dropping on a hardwood floor. A hammer striking a nail is not as loud as a big firecracker exploding. The term loudness could be applied to the measure of the amount of sound, and we often use the bel (commonly, the decibel) to measure sound. The decibel is actually a comparison of a sound level to another or to a standard. No better proof of the relative nature of the word "loud" can probably be found than that.

How do you tell the difference between loud and quiet sounds?

Loud sounds are high in volume and can often be heard from far away, while quiet sounds are low in volume and may only be heard at close range. You can use a decibel meter to measure the sound levels and determine if they are loud or quiet.


To find out how loud or soft a sound is you measure its?

Sound is the oscillation of pressure through a medium and is measured in decibels.


What can be measured with a decibel meter?

A decibel meter is used to measure sound. It is a handheld device and can be used to quickly measure how loud certain sounds are. They are sometimes used to measure how loud a crowd is in sports.


What is meant by the subjective properties of sound?

A subjective measure of sound is whether something is too loud, or too soft. A scientific measure of sound is gauged in the decibel level of the noise.
