measured at distance of three feet, is
so decibelS, a million times the intensity
of the smallest sound. A lions roar, as
determined at the zoo, is 80 decibels.
Decibels express a ratio. If the in
tensity of two sounds are In the ratio
10 TO /, they differ by 10 decibels.
Riveting, 10,000,000,000 times the
smallest sound, and blasting produce
