It's 10 times louder. It is easily looked up..

A 60 decibel sound is 10 times louder than a 40 decibel sound. Decibels follow a logarithmic scale, where an increase of 10 decibels represents a sound that is perceived as being 10 times more intense.
Decibels are a logarithmic scale used to measure sound intensity. For every 10 dB increase in sound level, the noise is perceived as being roughly twice as loud.
The threshold of hearing varies between individuals, but is commonly taken as 0dB. About one-half of the (undamaged, young, non noise-exposed, ... ...) people will have hearing better than the threshold, and the other half will hear worse than the threshold. But to the point, 10dB is 10 times, 20 dB is 100 times, and 30 dB is 1000 times.
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.No, it is 10 times louder. dB is a logarithmic scale; every 10 dB, the intensity increases by a factor of 10.

The orchestra is 10 times louder than the soloist because each increase of 10 decibels corresponds to a tenfold increase in sound intensity.
A 60 decibel sound is 10 times louder than a 40 decibel sound. Decibels follow a logarithmic scale, where an increase of 10 decibels represents a sound that is perceived as being 10 times more intense.
A quiet conversation is about 60 decibels. The sound of rustling leaves is about 40 decibels. The sound of a mosquito at 3 meters is said to be about 1 decibel.
The sound pressure level of 80 dB is a 10 times higher measure than the sound pressure level of 60 dB. Louder ist not the correct word, because it belongs to psycho acoustics and tells the loudness feeling.

Well it can differ but on average the American bull frog is about 10 decibels higher
The intensity of a 40 decibel sound is 10 times greater than that of a 20 decibel sound. This is because the decibel scale is logarithmic, with each 10 decibel increase representing a 10-fold increase in intensity. Therefore, a sound that is 40 decibels is 10 times more intense than a sound that is 20 decibels.

40 dB gain change should give about the ratio of 16 for sensed volume and loudness, 40 dB gain change gives the ratio of 100 for measured voltage and sound pressure and 40 dB gain change gives the ratio of 1000 for calculated sound power and acoustic intensity. Go to the link: Subjectively perceived loudness (volume), objectively measured sound pressure (voltage), and theoretically calculated sound intensity (acoustic power).
The decibel scale is logarithmic, with each increase of 10 decibels representing a tenfold increase in sound intensity. This means that a sound at 20 decibels is 10 times more intense than a sound at 10 decibels, and a sound at 30 decibels is 100 times more intense than a sound at 10 decibels.
