There is no such "exact level". What one person considers a pleasant sound, another one might consider a nuisance - i.e., a noise. Whether a sound is a nuisance or not will also depend on the type of sound, and on the circumstances. For example, when you are at a dance you would find a fairly high level of sound acceptable; on the other hand, if you are trying to sleep, you would find a much lower level of sound a nuisance. There may be legal limits to how much sound (or noise) is allowed, but these, too, may vary depending on the country, and within one country, depending on the exact circumstances.

∙ 6y agoSound becomes noise when sound is produced in large amount. It is also not tolerant by our ears, hence it can cause impairment of hearing.

What instrument measures noise level?
Sound level meters Loudness meters Noise dosimeter
How is noise related with pitch?
Pitch refers to a sound with specific tones. The pitch of a sound is determined by the spaces between the sound waves. A sound is considered by noise by determining the level of loudness of the sound.
What has a high sound pressure level?
Close to a noise maker there will be a high sound pressure level (SPL). 1 meter close to a jackhammer you can measure a SPL of 130 decibels. to
What words do we use for how loud and how high or low a note is?
Decibel (dB) is a measurement of the noise level of sound.
What intensity in dB does noise start to become painful?
It depends on the sort of noise. If you like that music you can bear it louder. 120 dB is mostly painful. Don't forget that your ear drums are moved by the sound pressure and not by the sound intensity.
How is sound level measured. At what level does sound become noise?
Sound level is measured in decibels (dB) using a sound level meter. Sound becomes noise when it is unwanted or excessive, typically around 85 dB for prolonged exposure or 120 dB for instant damage. Noise can also be subjective, as what is considered noise can vary from person to person.

What is the name of noise level tester?
That is a sound pressure level meter (SPL meter).
Which instrument I can use for the Noise Measurement?
yes you can measere the noise measerement. you can you the integrating sound level meter
How do you measure the noise of a fan?
The noise of a fan can be measured in decibels using a sound pressure level meter. Knowing the level of noise allows people to classify as pollution or conducive.
What machine measures sound intensity?
The instruments are variously known as sound level meters, noise meters, noise dosimeters, acoustic transducers, etc.
How do you test noise levels?
Noise levels of sound in the air are tested by a sound pressure level meter (SPL meter).Noise levels in an electronic circuit are tested by a volt meter.
What does sound level meter measure?
Sound level meters are instruments that measure the sound pressure level. Sound level meters, or sound meters are commonly used in noise pollution studies, examples are industrial spaces, environmental spaces, and aircraft spaces.
Is sound produced by changes in force's pressure's and velocity?
Sound and noise are sound pressure variations measured by an SPL meter. SPL = Sound Pressure Level.
How is noise measured?
Noise levels of sound in the air are measured by a sound pressure level meter (SPL meter).Noise levels in an electronic circuit are measured by a volt meter.
How does planting of tree help in reducing the noise level?
because the plants can not travel the sound at distance
