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
What else can I help you with?
Does yelling hurt whales ears?
Does yelling hurt your ears? Sound travels faster underwater but it also loses loudness. Whales ears are also less sensitive to human frequencies.
What is the meaning of measurement of loudness?
Units used to measure loudness are Sone (loudness N) and Phon (loudness level L). Scroll down to related links and look at "Loudness - Wikipedia" and "Sound level change and the change of the respective factor of volume and loudness"
What could you use to measure the loudness of the sound?
Units used to measure loudness are Sone (loudness N) and Phon (loudness level L). Scroll down to related links and look at "Loudness - Wikipedia" and "Sound level change and the change of the respective factor of volume and loudness".
What unit is measured of loudness?
Decibel is a measurement of loudness.
What unit is a measurement of loudness?
Decibel is a measurement of loudness.
What units are used to measure sound loudness and softness?
Units used to measure loudness are Sone (loudness N) and Phon (loudness level L). Scroll down to related links and look at "Loudness - Wikipedia" and "Sound level change and the change of the respective factor of volume and loudness".
What is loudness mesured in?
Loudness level LN is measured in phons and the Loudness N is measured in sones. Scroll down to related links and use the fine converter "Loudness level and loudness".
When was Loudness - band - created?
Loudness - band - was created in 1980.
Pitch is to frequency as loudness is to?
Loudness depends on the amplitude. square of amplitude is proportional to the loudness. Pitch is decided by the frequency. One can sing at higher pitch but at lower voice.
What is the unit of the loudness of sound?
Loudness is the quality of a sound that is primarily a psychological correlate of physical strength or amplitude. You can try to measure the sound pressure in decibels. Scroll down to related links and look at "Loudness in sones - Wikipedia ", Loudness level in phon - Wikipedia ", and Subjectivly sensed loudness (volume), objectively measured sound pressure (voltage).
The loudness of the violin which depends on the pressure of the bow on the strings?
Loudness(pressure)
How is amplitued related to loudness?
(amplitude)2 is directly proportional to loudness.
