What else can I help you with?
What sound intensity level would you expect to be painful to most humans?
Most humans find sound intensity levels above 120 dB to be painful. Prolonged exposure to sounds at this level can cause hearing damage and discomfort.
What is a name for a painful sound?
A name for a painful sound could be a screech or a yelp.
What level is sound considered painful at?
Depends on the sensitivity of someone's ears. Usually around 120 decibels.
What intensity in dB does noise start to become painful?
It depends on the sort of noise. If you like that music you can bear it louder. 120 dB is mostly painful. Don't forget that your ear drums are moved by the sound pressure and not by the sound intensity.
Why is it important to measure sound?
A: Sound can be painful above 90 Db. Or it can be measured to make things quite
How would you find out if you have a cyst or tumor on your ovaries?
cysts or tumors may be felt on a pap smear but must be confirmed through ultra sound. They may be painful depending on size and can become very painful during intercourse. Go to your OB asap if you are concerned. Hope this helps.
How is sound pressure converted to sound power level?
Sound power level (in decibels) is calculated by determining the sound pressure level (in decibels) at a reference distance from the source of the sound. The sound power level is based on the sound pressure level and the distance from the source, using the inverse square law to account for the spreading of sound waves in three dimensions.
What is the difference between sound pressure level and sound power level, and how do they relate to each other in terms of measuring sound intensity?
Sound pressure level measures the intensity of sound at a specific point, while sound power level measures the total sound energy produced by a source. Sound pressure level is a measure of how loud a sound is perceived, while sound power level is a measure of the total energy output of a sound source. In terms of measuring sound intensity, sound pressure level is often used to determine the impact of sound on a specific location, while sound power level is used to quantify the overall output of a sound source.
How is sound level measured. At what level does sound become noise?
Sound level is measured in decibels (dB) by a sound pressure level meter (SPL meter).There isn't really a specific level at which "sound" becomes "noise." "Noise" is a somewhat subjective term for "sound that I do not want to hear"; for example, if rap music is at all audible, I personally consider it "noise" though my son does not.In signal processing, "noise" means "anything that is not a deliberate signal" and generally has a significantly lowerdB level than the signal does.
Why some people become nervous even for small sound?
people get nervous because sometime a small sound to them is accurately very loud we all have different hearing!
What is the difference between sound power level and sound pressure level, and how do they relate to each other in the context of measuring sound intensity?
Sound power level refers to the total amount of sound energy produced by a source, measured in watts. Sound pressure level, on the other hand, measures the intensity of sound waves at a specific point, typically in decibels. In the context of measuring sound intensity, sound power level is the source of the sound, while sound pressure level is the measurement of how loud the sound is at a particular location. The two are related in that sound power level influences sound pressure level, but they are distinct measurements that provide different information about the sound being produced.
At what intensity does noise start to become painful?
AnswerThat depends on the sort of sound and the listener.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. Our ear drums are moved only by sound pressure and not by acoustic intensity.Different values for the threshold of pain are found in the literature:sound pressure level in dB SPL and sound pressure in Pa.120 dBSPL = 20 Pa130 dBSPL = 63 Pa134 dBSPL = 100 Pa137.5 dBSPL = 150 Pa140 dBSPL = 200 PaThe volume refers to psycho-acoustic loudness. It is a common term for the amplitude of sound, the sound pressure or the sound pressure level.Prolonged exposure to sound pressure levels in excess of the threshold of pain can cause physical damage, potentially leading to hearing impairment.
