The sound of a normal conversation is 60dB (decibels) and a close range jet is 140dB. This makes a jet at close range over 2 times as many decibels than a close range jet.
The sound of a normal conversation is 60dB (decibels) and a close range jet is 140dB. This makes a jet at close range over 2 times as many decibels than a normal conversation.
The above answer is FALSE:
The decibel scale is logarithmic and thus a 140 dB sound would be 10^14 above 0 decibel; the 60 dB sound would be 10^6 above 0 decibel. Thus the close range jet is around 10^(14 - 6) = 10^8, or 100,000,000 times the loudness of a normal conversation.

Which component of the sound wave determines the loudness or softness of a tone?
Amplitude of a sound wave determines LOUDNESS.
What does loudness increase with?
Loudness increases with increasing amplitude of the sound wave, also called increasing sound pressure.
What is the most common unit of sound loudness?
The most common unit of sound loudness is the decibel (dB).
What is used to measure theamplitude or the loudness of sound?
You can measure the sound pressure with a sound pressure level (SPL) meter. Loudness ist a psycho acoustical sensation.
Compare the loudness of sound waves that are in phase when they interfere with the loudness of sound waves that are out of phase when they interfere?
they bounce im blood crips die
What is the loudness of a normal conservation?
A normal conversation has a loudness (decibels level) of about 60 dB. As iy approached 70 dB it would be come loud.
How loud is 68db?
68 decibels is the loudness of normal conversation, or perhaps a piano played gently.
What property of sound describes your awareness of the energy of a sound?
loudness
What is the loudness of sound also known as?
The loudness of sound is also known as volume.
Is the loudness of a sound is called its intensity?
Yes the loudness of a sound is called its intensity.
What determines the loudness of a sound wave?
The amplitude determines the loudness of a sound wave.
What determines the loudness of sound waves?
The amplitude determines the loudness of a sound wave.
Loudness is the human perception of sound wave?
The amplitude of sound waves is what humans perceive as loudness.
What does the amplitude of a wave tell about a sound?
Amplitude is the maximum displacement of a wave. The amplitude determine the loudness of the sound
On what factor the loudness of sound depend upon?
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.
How does amplitude affect the loudness of a sound?
it is how loud the sound is ^Smartass comment. The real answer: Loudness is determined by the intensity of sound waves.
Which is a similarity between loudness and pitch?
There is no similarity. Loudness has to do with sound pressure amplitude coming from the sound source. Pitch has to do with the frequency of the tone the sound source is making. Loudness cannot be pitch.
