Noise measured in decibels is logarithmic; each 10 dB increase represents tenfold intensity increase. Sound level affects hearing and health.

- 1Decibel scale: 0 dB = threshold of hearing, 130 dB = threshold of pain
- 2Typical: 60 dB (normal conversation), 85 dB (prolonged exposure risky), 120+ dB (hearing damage immediate)
- 3Safe exposure: 85 dB for 8 hours, 90 dB for 2.5 hours
ସମାଧାନ ହୋଇଥିବା ଉଦାହରଣ
ଇନପୁଟ୍
90 dB noise source, 8 hours exposure
ଫଳ
Hearing damage risk, hearing protection required
OSHA limit

- ✕Adding decibels directly instead of converting to intensity
- ✕Assuming short exposures to high dB are safe

Why is decibel scale logarithmic?
Human hearing perceives loudness logarithmically; equal dB increases sound equal perceptual loudness.
How do you reduce noise?
Source reduction, distance (inversely proportional to distance squared), barriers, or personal protection.
