Sound Pressure Level in Decibels Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Sound Pressure Level = (Overpressure/(6.95*10^(-28)))^0.084
dB = (P/(6.95*10^(-28)))^0.084
This formula uses 2 Variables

Variables Used

Sound Pressure Level - (Measured in Decibel) - Sound Pressure Level is the pressure level of a sound, measured in decibels.
Overpressure - (Measured in Kilopascal) - Overpressure for a charge exploded on the ground surface.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Overpressure: 20 Kilopascal --> 20 Kilopascal No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

dB = (P/(6.95*10^(-28)))^0.084 --> (20/(6.95*10^(-28)))^0.084

Evaluating ... ...

dB = 245.787502165489

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

245.787502165489 Decibel --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

245.787502165489 ≈ 245.7875 Decibel <-- Sound Pressure Level

< Vibration Control in Blasting Calculators

Velocity of Particle One at Distance from Explosion

Go Velocity of Particle with Mass m1 = Velocity of Particle with Mass m2*(Distance of Particle 2 from Explosion/Distance of Particle 1 from Explosion)^(1.5)

Velocity of Particles disturbed by Vibrations

Go Velocity of Particle = (2*pi*Frequency of Vibration*Amplitude of Vibration)

Wavelength of Vibrations caused by Blasting

Go Wavelength of Vibration = (Velocity of Vibration/Frequency of Vibration)

Velocity of Vibrations caused by Blasting

Go Velocity of Vibration = (Wavelength of Vibration*Frequency of Vibration)

Sound Pressure Level in Decibels Formula

Sound Pressure Level = (Overpressure/(6.95*10^(-28)))^0.084
dB = (P/(6.95*10^(-28)))^0.084

What is Sound Pressure Level?

Sound pressure level (SPL) is the pressure level of a sound, measured in decibels (dB). It is the ratio of the Route Mean Square (RMS) of sound pressure to the reference of sound pressure (the reference sound pressure in air is 2 x 10-5 N/m2, or 0,00002 Pa).

How to Calculate Sound Pressure Level in Decibels?

Sound Pressure Level in Decibels calculator uses Sound Pressure Level = (Overpressure/(6.95*10^(-28)))^0.084 to calculate the Sound Pressure Level, The Sound Pressure Level in Decibels is defined as the pressure level of a sound, measured in decibels (dB) when overpressure on ground is known. Sound Pressure Level is denoted by dB symbol.

How to calculate Sound Pressure Level in Decibels using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Sound Pressure Level in Decibels, enter Overpressure (P) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Sound Pressure Level in Decibels calculation can be explained with given input values -> 245.7875 = (20000/(6.95*10^(-28)))^0.084.

FAQ

What is Sound Pressure Level in Decibels?

The Sound Pressure Level in Decibels is defined as the pressure level of a sound, measured in decibels (dB) when overpressure on ground is known and is represented as dB = (P/(6.95*10^(-28)))^0.084 or Sound Pressure Level = (Overpressure/(6.95*10^(-28)))^0.084. Overpressure for a charge exploded on the ground surface.
