intensity (n)
- plural
- intensities
English Definitions:
intensity, strength, intensity level (noun)
the amount of energy transmitted (as by acoustic or electromagnetic radiation)
"he adjusted the intensity of the sound"; "they measured the station's signal strength"
intensity, intensiveness (noun)
high level or degree; the property of being intense
volume, loudness, intensity (noun)
the magnitude of sound (usually in a specified direction)
"the kids played their music at full volume"
saturation, chroma, intensity, vividness (noun)
chromatic purity: freedom from dilution with white and hence vivid in hue
intensity (Noun)
the quality of being intense
intensity (Noun)
the degree of strength
intensity (Noun)
time-averaged energy flux (the ratio of average power to the area through which the power "flows"); irradiance
intensity (Noun)
can mean any of radiant intensity, luminous intensity or irradiance
intensity (Noun)
syn. radiance
intensity (Noun)
The severity of an earthquake in terms of its effects on the earth's surface, and buildings. The value depends on the distance from the epicentre, and is not to be confused with the magnitude.
Intensity
In physics, intensity is the power transferred per unit area. In the SI system, it has units watts per metre squared. It is used most frequently with waves, in which case the average power transfer over one period of the wave is used. Intensity can be applied to other circumstances where energy is transferred. For example, one could calculate the intensity of the kinetic energy carried by drops of water from a garden sprinkler. The word "intensity" as used here is not synonymous with "strength", "amplitude", or "level", as it sometimes is in colloquial speech. Intensity can be found by taking the energy density at a point in space and multiplying it by the velocity at which the energy is moving. The resulting vector has the units of power divided by area.
