The unit for the measurement of noise pollution is :

  • A.Decibel
  • B.Hertz
  • C.Watt
  • D.Lux

Answer: A

Noise is measured in decibels.

The decibel (dB) is a logarithmic unit of sound intensity level, so an increase of 10 dB means ten times the intensity. Noise standards and limits are expressed in dB, usually A-weighted, dB(A).

Hertz measures frequency (pitch), watt measures power, and lux measures illuminance. None of them expresses loudness of noise.
