Physio - Chemical Analysis of Sound Pollution in Man Sarovar Area of Jaipur during Lockdown (Corona Period) and its Statistical Interpretation

Pooja Bhatnagar, Dr. K. M. Sharma

Abstract: This research explores the alterations in sound pollution in the Mansarovar area of Jaipur during the COVID - 19 lockdown. The study focused on analysing the physio - chemical characteristics of sound pollution and offers a comprehensive statistical interpretation of the findings. Noise pollution is unwanted sound, it needs to be controlled to make the workplace comfortable. This chapter analyses noise mathematically and the effects of multiple sources are examined. Two noises of exactly the same level can have a combined noise level that is 3 dB higher than the individual values. The greater the difference between the two individual noise sources, the lower is the combined noise level. Different people react differently to the same type of noise. A noise level up to 90 dB does not have any appreciable effect. Exposure in excess of 115 dB is not permitted with unprotected ears as it runs the risk of hearing impairment. The average noise level of various equipment used inside the washery generally ranges from 85 to 110 dB. Noise pollution is any unwanted, unnecessary and stressful noise that affects the physical, mental and social activities of human beings as well as animal life in a harmful way. Noise pollution is inevitable in areas prevailing the human population since several of the human processes or activities like factory/industry machinery, transportation system, construction, spiritual activities and community activity (e. g., television, music systems, machinery, nightlife, social activities, domestic appliances, etc.) generate some sort of noise. Noise is found almost everywhere. Physically, sound and noise are often used as synonyms. Technically, noise is regarded as any undesired sound and/or disturbance within a useful frequency band. A sound is a form of energy produced by vibrating bodies which, upon reaching human ears, produces a form of hearing sensation. All vibrating bodies do not produce sound in the audible range from 20 to 20000 Hz. The intensity of sound is measured in decibels (dB). All the sounds produced outside this range are undesired for normal human hearing. Thus, noise is known as the ?unwanted sound? and is distinguished by the requirement or tendency of the person receiving it.
