Compared to a close whisper at 20 dB. How many times more intense is a normal conversation at 60 dB?

A normal conversation at 60 dB is 1,000 times more intense than a close whisper at 20 dB. This difference is due to the logarithmic nature of the dB scale, where each 10 dB increase represents a tenfold increase in intensity.

What decibel is deafening?

Starting at 85 decibels, ear plugsshould be worn because hearing damage begins. At 140 decibels, no matter what the frequency or duration of time, serious damage is inflicted to the ears and it is extremely painful. At 145 decibels, vision begins to blur due to vibration. 163 decibels is the minimum glass breaking sound level.Go to this chart for a more detailed explanation.http://makeitlouder.com/Decibel%20Level%20Chart.txt

What is quiest sound you can hear?

The human auditory threshold (absolute threshold of hearing) is a sound pressure of 20 µPa (micropascals), at 1000 Hz, as determined by the RMS (root mean square) method*. It is, as close as can be determined, the quietest sound that human hearing can detect.* This is an average, so by definition, at least some of the subjects probably were able to hear slightly quieter sounds.
