Sunset, Key Largo. Key Largo is an island in the upper Florida Keys archipelago and is the largest section of the Keys, at 33 miles (53 km) long. It is one of the northernmost of the Florida Keys in Monroe County, and the northernmost of the Keys connected by U.S. Highway 1 (the Overseas Highway).
Decibels are in essence a measure of volume. The volume or intensity of sound is measured in units called decibels (dB), generally on a scale from zero to 140 (any higher than 140 and you are in trouble immediately). The higher the number in decibels, the louder the noise. The louder the noise, the greater the risk of hearing loss.
Therefore, a sound intensity of 20 dB is not twice as loud as a sound intensity of 10 dB, but is 10 times as loud, and a sound intensity of 30 dB is 100 times as loud as a sound intensity of 10 dB. Similarly, a sound intensity of 50 dB would be 10,000 times as loud (10 x 10 x 10 x 10) as a sound of 10 dB. This is how the decibel scale works. It is totally unlike the linear percent scale. Now lets see the fallacy of trying to compare this âfunnyâ decibel scale to the percent scale.
