Question

Is the intensity of sound same as its loudness? answer with explaination okey

Answer 1

it depends on the amount of energy that started the Waves .Greater amplitude waves have more energy at greater intensity so this sound louder .The same amount of energy is spread over a greater area so the intensity and loudness of the sound is less.

Answer 2

Hey SuRu here is ur answer ....


→ Amplitude is a measure of the size of sound waves.

→ It depends on the amount of energy that started the waves.

→ Greater amplitude waves have more energy and greater intensity, so they sound louder.

→ The same amount of energy is spread over a greater area, so the intensity and loudness of the sound is less.

→ Loudness is related to the amplitude of sound waves (or pressure amplitude/ displacement relative to atmospheric pressure, typically)

→ Whereas intensity is the rate at which power (rate of energy transfer, or work per unit time) is transferred across a given area (Power/Area, or rate of energy transfer per unit area .

Hope answer will be helpful to u ....
