It generates 95 decibels at 200 feet. See the decibel comparison chart in the related link for further information.

What do subway trains run on?

Subway trains typically run on electricity that powers electric motors in the train cars. The electricity can come from a variety of sources, including overhead wires, third rails, or onboard batteries.


Would you hear a change in pitch if you are on a moving train and the train whistle blows?

Yes, you would hear a change in pitch. As the train approaches you, the pitch of the whistle would sound higher because the sound waves are compressed. As the train moves away from you, the pitch would sound lower as the sound waves are stretched out. This is known as the Doppler effect.


Does the Doppler Effect mean that an observer ahead of a train hears the train at a higher frequency sound than an observer behind the train?

Yes that is the case.


What natural disaster do most people use the word train the most to describe its effects or sound?

Tsunami- i guess as i am studying them & the waves go like a train over land


How loud is a rocket in decibels?

This is a typical wrong believe that a jackhammer has 110 dB, a rock band has 120 dB and an aeroplane must have 130 dB. Every one seems to be content with these wrong numbers. If there is no given distance with the measured decibel value, such numbers are really nonsense. With doubling the distance from a sound source the decibels decrease by 6 dB. So an airplane sound can be at 12.5 m distance 130 dB. At 25 m distance 124 dB, at 50 m distance 118 dB and at 100 m distance only 114 dB. You see how important it is to tell always the distance with the measured decibel level. Don't believe that only a specific decibel value belongs to noise source.
