Question

Up to what level is sound tolerable to the human ear?

Answer 1

Answer:

The human ear can hear sound of pitch ranging for 20hz-20,000hz.

Answer 2

Answer:

On average, a healthy human ear can withstand the sound of 85 dB in a day. Anything, which is over and above 85dB can potentially harm your ear drums and can affect your hearing capabilities.

A regular conversation that we undertake on a daily basis is somewhere around 60-70 dB. The sound of a lawn mover is around 90 dB. But the maximum range bearable by a human ear is 120dB.
