Hi everyone.

I was thinking this morning about some things. When you shine a torch (flashlight) on one spot, it is bright. And when you shine another torch on that same spot, it's even more bright. I think it's even twice as bright, is that correct?

Does the same thing happen with sound? If I have one television set on volume 10, it is that loud. If I turn on another television to the same station, and also set that at volume 10, does it become louder? What if I have a dozen televisions, all on volume 10? Is there no difference? How does that work?
