the Decibel it measures the loudness and intensity
I=a2
A unit used to measure the intensity of a sound or the power level of an electrical signal. Someones voice could raise by a decibel.
The power or intensity of the louder one is 10 billion times the power or intensity of the softer one. Since the power or intensity is typically proportional to the square of the wave amplitude, the amplitude of the louder one is a mere 100,000 times the amplitude of the softer one.
dB stands for decibel and is used to measure sound intensity in acoustics
the Decibel it measures the loudness and intensity
Decibel
Sound intensity
They are all measueres of sound waves. Amplitude is the term for the maximum difference in pressures between the peaks and troughs of a sound wave. Intensity is a measure of the energy content of a wave, and is proportional to amplitude squared. The decibel is an anthropic (based on human senses) measure of sound intensity, proportional to the logarithm of intensity.
I=a2
a decibel
decibel
The ratio between two quantities, usually quantities that somehow measure power, or intensity (power / area).
I=a2
decibels measure the intensity of sound.
100 times. Each bel (10 decibels) is ten times as loud thus 20 to 40 is 100 times.
