This seems like a question from an electrical course, and is probably best answered by referring to your course materials. It's your test question, not ours, and there won't always be someone else to ask for the answer. Earn your diploma.
If you mean the sound pressure level that causes pain, it is about 120 dB SPL.
60 dB sound pressure level is about conversational speech listened in 1 meter distance.
The process gain (or 'processing gain') is the ratio of the spread (or RF) bandwidth to the unspread (or baseband) bandwidth. It is usually expressed in decibels (dB).For example, if a 1 kHz signal is spread to 100 kHz, the process gain expressed as a numerical ratio would be 100,000/1,000 = 100. Or in decibels, 10log10(100) = 20 dB.
90 dB + 90 dB is not 180 dB. Decibels are not on linear scale, they are on a logarithmic scale, which better approximates how humans perceive loudness. You can get around the math by adding 3 decibels for every doubling of values, so 90 dB + 90 dB = 93 dB. For example: The sound pressure level of one person in conversational speech is 60dB. The maximum sound pressure level achieved in an underground railway is 100dB. If you have two people speaking, 60dB+60dB=63dB. So the achieved SpL is 63dB. It is not 120dB, which is significantly louder than an underground railway, in fact, it is about the SpL of a rock concert. The maximum theoretical value of sound is 194dB (which probably cant be achieved since it requires a sound-wave to oscillate into negative pressures (in Pascals))

dB HL stands for decibel Hearing Level, and dB SPL stands for decibel Sound Pressure Level.
To convert from dB HL (Hearing Level) to dB SPL (Sound Pressure Level), you typically need the specific audiogram for the individual. Once you have the individual's threshold values at different frequencies, you can use them to make the conversion. Each audiometric frequency has a specific conversion factor to convert from dB HL to dB SPL. It is not a direct and consistent conversion across all frequencies.
There are several types of dB. dB SPL are decibels measuring sound pressure levels. There is an accepted reference point of 0 dB SPL which equals 20 micropascals = 2 × 10-5 pascals. dB SL are decibels measuring a signal relative to an individuals auditory threshold. For example, if a person's minimum threshold is 30 dB HL (yet another type of decibel measuring how much worse a person's hearing is based on a referential dB level) and a signal is at 40 dB HL, the sensation level of this signal to this individual is 10 db SL (40 dB - 30 dB = 10 dB SL).
dB IL refers to decibels of insertion loss, which measures the reduction in sound intensity caused by an acoustic barrier or material. dB SPL refers to decibels of sound pressure level, which measures the intensity of sound relative to a reference pressure level. In cases where insertion loss is measured as a reduction in SPL (e.g., soundproofing materials), dB IL can be equivalent to dB SPL.
It depends on how loud it is. In hearing, the threshold of pain is the sound pressure or sound pressure level beyond which sound becomes unbearable for a human listener. This threshold varies only slightly with frequency. Different values for the threshold of pain are found in the literature: Here are some sound pressure levels SPL in dB and the sound pressure in pascals of the sensed possible threshold of pain: SPL 120 dB = 20 Pa SPL 130 dB = 63 Pa SPL 134 dB =100 Pa SPL 137.5 dB =150 Pa SPL 140 dB =200 Pa
The usual soundlevel can be between 0 dB SPL = 20 µPa (threshold of hearing) up to 130 dB SPL (threshold of pain). An average sound level could be at 85 dB SPL. Scroll down to related links and look at "Average sound pressure levels".
The sound level in decibels (dB) required for a 1 sone loudness at a frequency of 50 Hz would be around 40 dB. This is because 1 sone is approximately equal to 40 phons, and for a 50 Hz tone, 40 phons is equivalent to around 40 dB SPL (Sound Pressure Level).
SPL stands for Sound Pressure Level, and 86 dB represents the loudness of the sound in decibels. An SPL of 86 dB is approximately equivalent to the noise level of heavy traffic or a vacuum cleaner from a few feet away. It is considered moderately loud and prolonged exposure may cause hearing damage.
If you mean the sound pressure level that causes pain, it is about 120 dB SPL.
Decibels (dB) is a unit used for measuring the intensity of a sound or the power of an electrical signal. Without specific context or reference levels, it is not possible to convert 100 kHz to dB as they are different units of measurement (frequency vs decibels).
dB HL stands for decibels Hearing Level and is a unit used to measure the relative loudness perception for an individual with hearing loss. It represents the volume level of sounds that an average person with normal hearing can hear at a given frequency, serving as a reference point for audiologists to determine the extent of a person's hearing loss.
130 dB is an SPL commonly considered to be the threshold of pain. Between 120 and 140. http://ccrma-www.stanford.edu/~jos/st/DB_SPL.html
