Tutorial DB (Ed5)

This document provides tutorial exercises on adding decibel (dB) values for different sound sources. The exercises ask the reader to calculate the total dB values for: two instruments playing non-correlated notes with given dB levels; two sinewaves that beat together with given dB levels; 10 singers each singing at 59dB; and 16 violinists each playing at 65dB.

Tutorial exercises on decibels


 

1.      Add the following dB values assuming they are for two instruments playing non-
correlated notes:

(i)                  70dB and 73dB


(ii)                71dB and 71dB
(iii)               75dB and 85dB
 
2.      Add the following dB values assuming they are for two sinewaves sufficiently close in
frequency that they beat, giving the maximum and minimum amplitude variation of the
beating:
(i)                  60dB and 60dB
(ii)                73dB and 69dB
 
3.      What is the overall dB level if 10 singers are each singing non-correlated at 59dB?
4.      What is the overall dB level if 16 violinists are each playing non-correlated at 65dB?
