Unit used to measure noise level is :

  • A.Joule
  • B.PPM
  • C.Bit
  • D.dB

Answer: D

Noise level is measured in dB (decibels).

The decibel is a logarithmic unit of sound pressure level: an increase of 10 dB means ten times the sound intensity. Normal conversation is around 60 dB, and prolonged exposure above about 85 dB can damage hearing.

The joule is a unit of energy, ppm (parts per million) measures concentration of pollutants in air or water, and the bit is a unit of information.
