The pressure amplitude of a sound wave is directly related to its perceived loudness. Higher pressure amplitudes result in louder sounds, while lower pressure amplitudes result in quieter sounds. This means that the greater the pressure amplitude of a sound wave, the louder it will be perceived by the human ear.
No, the amplitude of a sound wave determines its intensity, not its perceived loudness. Loudness is subjective and depends on the sensitivity of the human ear to different frequencies at different sound pressure levels.
Loudness is affected by parameters other than sound pressure, including frequency and duration. In acoustics volume is related to amplitude, sound pressure, and dynamics.The loudness of a sound can be measured by a sound pressure level meter. It belongs to psycho acoustics.Loudness is a subjective measure, which is often confused with objective measures of sound prtessure such as decibels or sound intensity. Filters such as A-weighting attempt to adjust sound measurements to correspond to loudness as perceived by the average human. However, as the perception of loudness varies from person to person it cannot be universally measured using any single metric.There is subjectivly perceived loudness (volume), objectively measured sound pressure (voltage), and theoretically calculated sound intensity (acoustic power).Scroll down to related links and look at "All about loudness".
Generally speaking, we perceive an increase in amplitude as an increase in loudness. However, at the higher end of the scale of Sound Pressure Level we are less sensitive to incremental changes. The loudness we experience also varies with frequency. For instance, we are not as sensitive to soft sounds when they are in the low frequency range (20Hz - 700Hz).Loudness is partly a function of the way in which our ears physically respond to sound. However, the brain/mind plays a big part in how loudness is perceived. Loudness is a characteristic of sound that is primarily a psychological correlate of its physical strength. We can conceive of the (objective) physicalstrength of sound as its amplitude. Then, as we might imagine, the overall effect is that loudness increases with amplitude.
Loudness is a word from psychoacoustics. It is the quality of a sound that is the primary psychological correlate of physical strength or amplitude. Loudness is a really subjective measure. It is often confused with objective measures of sound pressure or sound intensity. The perception of loudness varies from person to person, therefore it cannot be universally measured using any single metric. Loudness is also affected by parameters other than sound pressure, including frequency and duration. Scroll down to related links and look at "Dependance of sound levels and the corresponding factors - The subjectivly sensed loudness (volume)".
The volume of a sound is determined by the amplitude of the sound wave. Amplitude refers to the maximum displacement of particles in a medium from their rest position when a sound wave passes through it. The greater the amplitude of the sound wave, the louder the sound will be perceived by our ears. This is why sounds with higher amplitudes are perceived as louder than sounds with lower amplitudes.
No, the amplitude of a sound wave determines its intensity, not its perceived loudness. Loudness is subjective and depends on the sensitivity of the human ear to different frequencies at different sound pressure levels.
The loudness of a sound wave is proportional to the amplitude of the wave, which is to say, the size of the vibration.
No. The loudness is related to the amplitude - in the case of sound, how much is the pressure difference; or how far the molecules swing back and forth.No. The loudness is related to the amplitude - in the case of sound, how much is the pressure difference; or how far the molecules swing back and forth.No. The loudness is related to the amplitude - in the case of sound, how much is the pressure difference; or how far the molecules swing back and forth.No. The loudness is related to the amplitude - in the case of sound, how much is the pressure difference; or how far the molecules swing back and forth.
Loudness increases with increasing amplitude of the sound wave, also called increasing sound pressure.

Loudness is the quality of a sound that is the primary psychological correlate of the amplitude of sound (physical strength). It is a feeling, which is neither the sound pressure as field quantity nor the acoustic intensity as energy quantity. Scroll down to related links and look at "Loudness - Wikipedia".

it is how loud the sound is ^Smartass comment. The real answer: Loudness is determined by the intensity of sound waves.
The volume of a sound is determined by the amplitude of the sound wave. Amplitude refers to the maximum displacement of particles in a medium from their rest position when a sound wave passes through it. The greater the amplitude of the sound wave, the louder the sound will be perceived by our ears. This is why sounds with higher amplitudes are perceived as louder than sounds with lower amplitudes.
Two answers to this: Pressure as in Sound Pressure Level or, Amplitude.
