"Permitted Exposure Time Guidelines - SPL"
Sound pressure level Lp and permissible exposure time t:
115 dB = 0.46875 minutes (~30 sec)
112 dB = 0.9375 minutes (~1 min)
109 dB = 1.875 minutes (< 2 min)
106 dB = 3.75 minutes (< 4 min)
103 dB = 7.5 minutes
100 dB = 15 minutes
97 dB = 30 minutes
94 dB = 1 hour
91 dB = 2 hours
88 dB = 4 hours
85 dB = 8 hours
82 dB = 16 hours
Lower dBs are said to be harmless.
PS: Eardrums are moved by sound pressure deviations.
What else can I help you with?
What wave property is related to sound intensity?
Sound intensity is related to the amplitude of the sound wave, which is the measure of the maximum displacement of particles in a medium from their rest position. The greater the amplitude of a sound wave, the higher the intensity of the sound.
What is the maximum level of sound intensity, measured in decibels, that can cause permanent hearing damage, such as 1100 dB sound?
The maximum level of sound intensity that can cause permanent hearing damage is around 120-130 decibels. Sound intensity of 1100 dB is extremely high and would cause immediate and severe damage to hearing.
What gives a sound wave its pitch and intensity?
A sound wave's pitch is determined by its frequency; that is its cycles per unit of time. The sound wave's intensity or volume is determined by its amplitude; the maximum crest of a sound wave.
What is the amplitude of a sound wave a measure of?
The amplitude of a sound wave is the measure of the intensity of the sound, such as loudness.
What is a high point of sound called?
A high point of sound is called a peak. It represents the maximum amplitude or intensity of a sound wave in a given moment.
Which wave characteristic is affected by the loudness or the intensity of sound?
The amplitude of a sound wave is affected by the loudness or intensity of sound. Amplitude refers to the maximum displacement of particles in a medium from their equilibrium position when a wave passes through. The greater the intensity or loudness of the sound, the higher the amplitude of the corresponding sound wave.
What are the current permissible amounts of radiation?
current annual permissible maximum of 20 mSv.
How the term intensity decibel and amplitude are related?
They are all measueres of sound waves. Amplitude is the term for the maximum difference in pressures between the peaks and troughs of a sound wave. Intensity is a measure of the energy content of a wave, and is proportional to amplitude squared. The decibel is an anthropic (based on human senses) measure of sound intensity, proportional to the logarithm of intensity.
Is intensity a property of sound?
Sound intensity is a property of sound.
What is the intensity of a sound wave called?
The intensity of a sound wave is called sound intensity. It measures the amount of energy transmitted by the sound wave per unit area. Sound intensity is measured in decibels (dB).
What does intensity of sound depend on?
The intensity of sound is dependent on the amplitude of the sound wave. The higher the amplitude, the greater the intensity of the sound. It is measured in decibels (dB) and corresponds to the loudness of the sound.
