Devices, such as amplifiers can't be linear over all input values. At some point they just can't output the required output power. I.e. an amplifier that increases input power by a factor of 10, may not be able to amplify a signal that comes in that is, let's say 10 watts. The point where the device is outputing 1 dB less POWER (which is roughly running at 80%) than it should is the 1 dB compression point. So lets say a 10 watt signal is input, and that the signal should be amplified by a factor of 10, and should output 100 watts. Let's also say the system output power is actually 1 dB down from the expected value and outputting roughly 80 watts, 10 watts is the input 1 dB compression point.

A signal starts at point x as it travels to point y it loses 8 db at point y the signal is boosted by 10bb as the signal travels to point z it loses 7 db what is the db strength of the signal at point?

A signal starts at point X. As it travels to point Y, it loses 10db. At point Y, the signal is boosted by 5db. As the signal travels to point Z, it loses 7db. What is the db strength of the signal at point Z?


Does rotor point to number 1 when timing marks are lined up?

Yes, if #1 is at TDC on the compression stroke.


What is a compression is a static compression applied by the therapist's thumbs fingertips or olecranon to a trigger point?

An ischemic compression is a static compression applied by the therapist's thumbs, fingertips, or olecranon to a trigger point.


How do you convert 13.936 dB to watts?

In power wattage increases by two times for every three DBs of increase. A starting point is needed to do this calculation. The equation you're looking for is 10*log |P| = P in dB for example, 0 dB = 1 watt 10 dB = 10 watts for 13.936dB, 10^1.3936 = 24.75 watts.


How do you converts ohms to dB?

You must find a resistance value for 0 dB as reference. If 1 Ohm = 0 dB then 10 ohms = 20 dB and 100 ohms = 40 dB.


How many DB is Mach1?

The sound of Mach 1 is around 130 dB.


If one lawn mower causes an 80 dB sound level at a nearby point what sound level at that point would four lawnmowers together cause?

When four lawnmowers are together, the sound level they produce would be around 86 dB. This is due to the way sound levels add up - each additional lawnmower increases the overall sound level by about 3 dB.


How 3db dandwidth equals half power bandwidth?

"3 dB" is a nickname for "1/2 power". "1/2 power" in dB = 10 log(1/2) = 10 (-0.30103) = -3.01 dB
