sound (English)
Any audible vibration. Besides PITCH, sounds have two related attributes,INTENSITY and LOUDNESS. Intensity is a physical term used to denote the amount of energy in a sound. Loudness refers to the sensation evoked by a given sound intensity. That intensity and loudness are not synonymous is due to the fact that the ear is not uniformly sensitive throughout the entirerange of audible frequencies. (English)
