The price at which U.S. Currency can be bought with another currency or gold.
The price of one currency in terms of another. For example, one French franc may be worth 13.63 cents - or - one dollar is worth 7.33 French francs. Exchange rates fluctuate as currency traders and investors change their perceptions of world events and the stability of each nation's economy and government. Most countries try to maintain somewhat stable rates because this makes investors feel more secure. One way to ensure that stability is to link the currency to a specific amount of a commodity, like silver or gold, and keep a reserve of that commodity equal to the total value of the currency in circulation. Some nations link their currency to the dollar because it is perceived as stable. A linked system is considered "fixed", while a system that relies on market forces is considered "floating". Many strong economies, including the United States, float their currency. Many weaker economies fix their currency, hoping to lock in some security.

"Exchange Rate refers to the value of one currency over another. For example, it refers to the value of the Canadian dollar against the currencies of other countries. Among other things, it helps determine the difference between the amount that the economy pays for imported goods and services and the amount that it receives from its exports. When the value of the Canadian dollar falls, imported goods become more expensive, and this often leads to the reduction of the volume of imports. At the same time, other countries will pay less for some of Canadian products and that will tend to boost export sales. The Exchange Rate plays a particularly important role in the Canadian economy because imports and exports are a relatively large part of Canada's economy. Most of Canada's trade is with the United States, which is why the value of Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar is especially important." Source: Banque of Canada Exchange Rate
The ratio of exchange between the currencies of different countries (e.g., between the dollar and the yen). Changes in the exchange rate affect the prices of goods in international trade and have important internal affects in nations. Exchange rates can be fixed (pegged) as during the Bretton Woods period (1946-1973) and the period of the gold standard in the late nineteenth century, or floating (flexible) as during the period since 1946. Governments determine fixed rates, market forces determine floating exchange rates.

The rate in which sound energy is averaged over time. Utilizing a decibel scale, every time the sound energy doubles, the measured level increases by 3 dB. This is the 3 dB exchange rate that most of the world uses.
An increment of decibels that requires the halving of exposure time, or a decrement of decibels that requires the doubling of exposure time. For example, a 3-dB exchange rate requires that noise exposure time be halved for each 3-dB increase in noise level; likewise, a 5-dB exchange rate requires that exposure time be halved for each 5-dB increase.
Economically defined as the intersect of the labor demand and the labor supply functions in an external market. It constitutes the wage rate that employers are willing to pay and labor is willing to accept. From a compensation viewpoint, the exchange rate defines the criterion of external equity.
(also Doubling Rate) Refers to the rate in which sound energy is averaged over time. Every time the sound energy doubles, the measured level increases by 3dB ,which most of the world uses. In the U.S., OSHA uses a 5dB exchange rate.
The louder the sound, the lower the allowable exposure time to it. The exchange rate is the relationship between exposure time and noise level. The exchange rate halves the exposure time for ever 5 dB increase in noise level.
The exchange rate is the number of dB's below the criterion level that results in a 50% reduction in dose. For example: with the criterion level set at 90 dB and the Exchange Rate set at 5 dB, a reading of 50% dose will occur when the dosimeter is exposed to 85 dB for eight hours.
