Will two sounds of 50 db constitute a sound of 100 db . Explain

1 answer:

6 0

Two sounds of 50 db each will NOT constitute a 100 db sound. This is because, the relation that relates levels of sounds is a logarithmic relation and not a direct relation of addition. <span>Each 10 dB increase in sound makes the sound 10 times louder.
</span>This means that, for 50 db, the resultant sound level will be <span>twice as loud is an increase of 10Log (2) = 3.01dB
</span>
The final sound level = 50 + 3.01 = 53.01 db
