The lateral superior olive ( LSO ) is believed to be involved in measuring the difference in sound intensity between the ears ( the interaural level difference or ILD ).
32.
For crewed rockets various methods are used to reduce the sound intensity for the passengers, and typically the placement of the astronauts far away from the rocket engines helps significantly.
33.
It takes some getting used to, but you can practice with an empty plastic wastebasket in the driveway and learn how the sound intensity increases as the gap between car and basket narrows.
34.
It is sometimes stated that loudness is a subjective measure, often confused with physical measures of sound strength such as sound pressure, sound pressure level ( in decibels ), sound intensity or sound power.
35.
Sound intensity ( sound energy, or propensity to cause damage to the ears ) increases dramatically with proximity according to an inverse square law : halving the distance to the sound quadruples the sound intensity.

37.
In fact, your link clarifies this a bit : it defines sound intensity as a " vector ", which in the case of point source is radially directed and decays as 1 / r 2.
38.
:A more or less direct quote ( after poor translation ) from my physics book : " The total sound intensity at a specified point is the sum of the intensities caused by single sound sources.
39.
The ratio of the sound intensity that causes permanent damage during short exposure to that of the quietest sound that the ear can hear is greater than or equal to 1 trillion ( 10 12 ).
40.
The study of neural coding involves measuring and characterizing how stimulus attributes, such as light or sound intensity, or motor actions, such as the direction of an arm movement, are represented by neuron action potentials or spikes.
