three distinct methods: control‚ path control and receptor shielding (Noise Mitigation) can reduce environmental noise. Vasquez 2 Noise intensity is measure by decibel units. The decibel scale runs from zero for the perceptible sound‚ to one hundred and thirty for sound that causes pain.

Both systems can extract a great deal of information about the environment by interpreting the complex patterns of reflected energy that they receive. In the case of sound‚ these waves of reflected energy are called "echoes". Echoes and other sounds can convey spatial information that is comparable in many respects to that conveyed

position in space‚ we all hear something different. First‚ the volume of sound we hear depends on the amplitude of sound wave we receive. There are two factors‚ namely distance from the sound source and the path sound travels. Absorption occurs when sound travels in the air as well as hits on every object‚ which leads to reduction of wave amplitude same with the amount of absorption. In short‚ farer we are from the source‚ sound deteriorates more; more reflection occurs‚ more extent in which the volume
