What determines the volume of sound?
The volume of a sound is measured by the sound pressure in pascals or newtons per square meter. The sound pressure level is measured by a sound pressure level meter (SPL meter).
How can you measure sound without a decibel meter?
The decibel meter is better known as a sound level meter. You can measure sound by a microphone and a vu meter, a peak meter, or a AC voltage meter. The reading given by such a meter does not correlate well to human-perceived loudness.
What is most often used to measure the intensity of a sound?
The intensity of sound is most often measured by the Decibel meter. It can also be called the sound level meter or the dB Meter. It is used to accurately and objectively measure the sound or noise that one can hear.
How i can measure sound frequency from sound level meter?
You just need a meter that measure Hertz (high and low) as well as db (volume)
What instrument measures sound intensity?
An oscilloscope measures electrical signal amplitude and wavelength. A decibel or sound-level meter. A cheap one is available at your local Walmart for about $20 located in the car audio section. If not instore, online. They make much better ones, but if you are looking to just get a rough idea, this is the way to go.

How do you make something to measure sound?
A microphone and a meter. A sound pressure level meter.
How are decibel measure?
Sound is measured in decibels by a sound pressure level meter (SPL-meter).
How do you use a sound meter?

What do you use to measure decibels?
You measure the sound pressure with a sound pressure level meter (SPL meter).
What do you use to measure how loud sound is?
Take a sound pressure level meter (SPL meter). Try to measure the sound pressure p.
What are sound levels?
Usually sound pressure level (SPL) in decibels (dB) is meant. A sound level meter is an instrument which measures the sound pressure level. The reading from a sound pressure level meter (SPL meter) does not correlate well to human-perceived loudness.
