The unit of measurement of noise is – (1) Decibel (2) Hertz (3) Amplifier (4) Acoustics

1 Answer

Answer :

(1) Decibel Explanation: The decibel (dB) is the unit used to measure the intensity of sound or noise level. It is given in terms of a logarithmic function of a ratio of power intensities. One decibel is one tenth of one bel, named in honor of Alexander Graham Bell who was the inventor of the telephone and phonograph.
