So a first-order filter has a roll-off rate of 20dB/decade (6dB/octave), a second-order filter has a roll-off rate of 40dB/decade (12dB/octave), and a fourth-order filter has a roll-off rate of 80dB/decade (24dB/octave), etc, etc.

What is the roll-off of a second order filter?
For second-order filters it is 40 dB/decade (or 12 dB/octave) and for third-order filters it is 60 dB/decade (or 18 dB/octave). Each successive order adds a further 20 dB/decade (or 6 dB/octave) to the roll-off.
What is roll-off rate of a filter?
A: The rolloff rate is the rate of change of the output of the filter versus frequency. It is expressed as a loss per decade (a ten-times increase in frequency) or per octave (a two-time increase in frequency.
What is the rolloff rate of a 2nd order active filter?
Because the filter is second order, the rolloff after the cutoff frequency on a bode plot of a 2nd order low pass filter for example, is -40 dB/decade as opposed to -20 dB/decade for a first order (RC) filter which means significantly greater attenuation outside the pass band and a sharper cutoff.
What is the roll-off rate of the second order low pass Butterworth filter?
A first-order filter's response rolls off at −6 dB per octave (−20 dB per decade) (all first-order lowpass filters have the same normalized frequency response). A second-order filter decreases at −12 dB per octave, a third-order at −18 dB and so on.
