The loudness of a sound depends on the amount of energy it takes to make the sound and the distance from the source of the sound.


What distance is loudness of sound measured?

There is really no standard distance from the sound source where the sound pressure level (SPL) is measured.


Loudness of a sound depends on?

The amplitude of the sound waves. (the distance it makes the particles move)

It should fall to a quarter.


How can the loudness of a sound be determined by the waves?

The loudness of a sound (or intensity) corresponds to the sound wave's amplitude. The amplitude of a wave is the distance from the midpoint of the wave to a high-point (crest) or low-point (trough).

Loudness of stereo speaker measured in decibels varies inversely as the sq of your distance from the speaker At 8 ft from the speaker the loudness is 28 decibels What is loudness 4ft from speaker?

Feelings are different from person to person. So don't talk of "measuring" the "loudness". You can really measure the sound pressure with a sound pressure level meter. At 8 ft from the speaker sound pressure level (SPL) is 28 decibels. What is loudness 4 ft from the speaker? You get 6 dB more level at half the distance r = 1/2, that is 34 dB. The sound pressure varies with distance 1/r from the sound source. There is nothing squared! Scroll down to related links and look at "Sound pressure p and the inverse distance law 1/r".


What kind of loudness would a band loudness measure?

They will take an SPL-Meter and measure the sound pressure level. The closer you are to the band, the louder is the level. The level decreases with distance after the 1/r law. Each distance doubling will give 6 dB less level.


What is loudness of a sound called?

Feelings of loudness are different from person to person. So don't talk of "measuring" the "loudness".For psycho acoustic values we have units to express loudness:Sone (loudness N) and Phon (loudness level L).You can really measure the sound pressure with a sound pressure level meter. That is measured in dB SPL. Loudness is a subjective measure but sound pressure is an objective measure. But that is different. Don't mix it up. Scroll down to related links and look for more on decreasing of sound pressure with distance.
