How do you interpret the "scratchy" sound of rock music?

How much greater is the sound pressure level of a typical rock band's music (110 dB) than a normal conversation (50 dB)

  • Answer:

    The sound pressure level of a typical rock band's music is about 20 pascals, while a normal conversation is about 0.0025 pascals. Sound pressure or acoustic pressure is the local pressure deviation from the ambient (average, or equilibrium) atmospheric pressure caused by a sound wave. Sound pressure can be measured using a microphone in air and a hydrophone in water.
