Answer: Decibels

Explanation:

Decibel is the unit which used to measure intensity of sound. Sound intensity is the power carried by the sound waves per unit area perpendicular to it.

I = \frac{P}{A} measured in W/m²

In decibels:

I (dB) = 10 log_{10}\frac{I}{I_o}

With each unit rise of decibel, the sound intensity varies by a factor of 10.

Difference between discrete and continuous charge distribution?
Vlada [557]
Discrete systems are those systems in which are made up of finite component particles a which are non-homogeneously arranged such that no smooth variation exists.

They are direct opposite to continuous systems, which are smooth arrangement of particles which cannot be individually taken into consideration.
