No, it is 10 times louder. dB is a logarithmic scale; every 10 dB, the intensity increases by a factor of 10. Thus, 10 dB is 10 times louder than 0 dB, 20 dB is 10 times louder than 10 dB, and 30 dB is 10 times louder than 20 dB.

50dB - 20dB = 30 dB = 1,000 times as much power
A 10dB (decibel) increase makes a sound that is perceived to be twice as loud.
No - since sound (hearing) operates on a logarithmic scale. So to be twice as loud a sound must be 10 times as "intense".
60dB
Assuming we are talking about sound, intensity measures the power in a sound wave. Mathematically, it is the product of the sound pressure and the particle velocity, and is measured in watts per square meter. Loudness usually refers to the (subjective) perception of sound intensity by people. It is related to intensity, but also depends upon frequency. The human ear perceives increases in sound intensity roughly on a logarithmic scale, so for example the sound intensity needs to increase by about a factor of ten to create the perception that the sound is twice as loud. This is the motivation for the decibel system, which measures sound intensity on a logarithmic scale.
1000 times louder. Every 10 decibel, the intensity increases by a factor of 10.1000 times louder. Every 10 decibel, the intensity increases by a factor of 10.1000 times louder. Every 10 decibel, the intensity increases by a factor of 10.1000 times louder. Every 10 decibel, the intensity increases by a factor of 10.

No, "loud" is not a verb. It is an adjective that describes the volume or intensity of a sound.
Its volume or how loud it is.
The amplitude of a wave produces the intensity of the wave. With a light wave, it is the intensity of the light, with a sound wave, it is how loud the sound is
1000 times louder. Every 10 decibel, the intensity increases by a factor of 10.1000 times louder. Every 10 decibel, the intensity increases by a factor of 10.1000 times louder. Every 10 decibel, the intensity increases by a factor of 10.1000 times louder. Every 10 decibel, the intensity increases by a factor of 10.
No, 10 dB is perceived to be twice as loud, and requires 10 times the power.Doubling of the volume (loudness) should be perceived by a level difference of 10 dB − psychoacousticians say.Doubling the sound pressure (voltage) level corresponds to a measured level change of 6 dB.Doubling of acoustic power (sound intensity) level corresponds to a calculated level change of 3 dB.Scroll down to related links and look at "How many decibels (dB) is twice (double, half) or three times as loud?"
Sound is measured in decibels, dB. Ten decibels (one Bel) sounds twice as loud as another sound. One decibel is the amount of sound just distinguishably louder than another sound. Named after A G Bell of telephone fame.
