At sea level, the average air pressure is about 1 bar. As you increase in altitude, the air pressure decreases. On average, the air pressure decreases by about 12% for every 1000 meters of elevation gain. Therefore, at an altitude of 1200 meters, the air pressure would be approximately 0.88 bar.

What determines the volume of sound?

The volume of a sound is measured by the sound pressure in pascals or newtons per square meter. The sound pressure level is measured by a sound pressure level meter (SPL meter).


What is the principle on venturimer works?

A Venturi meter works based on the principle of Bernoulli's equation, which states that an increase in fluid velocity results in a decrease in pressure. The Venturi meter is a device that measures the flow rate of a fluid by creating a pressure difference between two points in a pipe, allowing for flow rate calculations based on this pressure difference.


What instrument measures sound intensity?

An oscilloscope measures electrical signal amplitude and wavelength. A decibel or sound-level meter. A cheap one is available at your local Walmart for about $20 located in the car audio section. If not instore, online. They make much better ones, but if you are looking to just get a rough idea, this is the way to go.


How can you measure sound energy?

Sound energy can be measured using a sound level meter, which measures the intensity of sound waves in decibels. The sound level meter captures the pressure variations of sound waves and converts them into a numerical value to represent the sound energy level in a given environment.


What is the speed of sound at sea level plus one meter?

The speed of sound at sea level is around 343 m/s. Adding one meter to the elevation would not significantly change the speed of sound, as it is mainly influenced by factors like temperature and humidity, not altitude. So, the speed of sound at sea level plus one meter would still be approximately 343 m/s.

What are sound levels?

Usually sound pressure level (SPL) in decibels (dB) is meant. A sound level meter is an instrument which measures the sound pressure level. The reading from a sound pressure level meter (SPL meter) does not correlate well to human-perceived loudness.


How much does the atmosphere weigh over each square meter of surface?

The atmospheric pressure is roughly 1 bar, or 100,000 pascal. That means 100,000 newton per square meter (equivalent to the mass of about 10 tons). Actually, that's the approximate pressure at sea level; the pressure (force or weight per square meter) varies a lot depending on the altitude.
