Brinnnggggg! Use onamotpoeia, to portray the effect of the verb.
The problem with the wording in "Startled by the noise, the alarm clock was knocked on the floor" is that it makes it sound like the alarm clock was startled. It would be better written: "Startled by the alarm clock, I knocked it on the floor."
yes. the same noises can be used as alarm clock alerts.
Both examples need commas after their modifiers, as well as some other punctuation that isn't currently allowed in Wiki questions. Other than that, the first example is correct. It implies that you were standing on the chair, which is a reasonable action for you to take when you want to reach something high. The second example is incorrect. It implies that the alarm clock was startled by its own noise. It's more likely that the person who knocked the alarm clock onto the floor was startled. Example #2 correction: Startled by the noise, I (he/she/etc.) knocked the alarm clock onto the floor.

I HAVE 92 LSC ALSO, TRIPMINDER IS MAKING THAT NOISE WHEN IT GOES BAD, THERE IS A FUSE ON THE FUSE PANEL BY DRIVERS SIDE LEFT LEG, REMOVE......NOISE WILL STOPS , OF COURSE TRIPMINDER/CLOCK WILL NO LONGER WORK, I FORGET FUSE POSITION NUMBER, ITS NOTED IN OWNERS MANUAL.
You didn't describe the type of clock radio or age so the following are just guesses to apply to your situation. Unplug the radio from the wall. If the noise still persists, it isn't the radio, but something else around the radio. Is the clock and old fashioned mechanical clock. If so it could be the clock motor. The radio could still be on when you think it is off. This is possible in some models where the on/off switching is electronic rather than mechanical. There is something living inside the clock radio. Sound will persist even when unplugged. There is a strong electromagnetic field in vicinity of radio which is causing a resonance frequency in the radio electronics even when off. Move the radio to another part of house and see if sound changes.
It is RFI generated from the ignition system. dI/dT very fast di/dt is rf
57 decibels is about the noise that a high speed toothbrush makes or the low setting on an alarm clock or telephone. It can be loud enough to wake you up.
A clock is the answer
A simple fire alarm has a sensor or switch that reacts to fire or smoke and trips a device that makes noise. For instance, you could use a string pulling on a switch that is held open by the string until the string catches fire, closing the switch and ringing a bell.

My digital alarm clock began to gain time when we bought a new microwave oven. So did another digital clock in the house. Three others were unaffected. The clocks gain time only when the microwave is operated. I believe that the oven is creating noise on my ac power line that affects the timing circuits of some clocks, even though they are plugged in to separate branch circuits. I have ordered a noise filter to connect between the microwave and its socket. I hope that will fix the problem.
