Distinguish between loudness and intensity of sound.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The amount of sound energy passing each second through unit area is called intensity of sound. Loudness is a measure of the response of the ear to sound. Even though two sounds are of equal intensity, we can hear one as louder than the other because our ear can detect it better.
