What dose the frequency of a sound wave determine?
The frequency of a sound wave will determine the pitch (or note).
Is ultrasonic wave radio frequency?
ultrasonic wave is sound frequency
The pitch of a sound wave is its?
Its' frequency.
The higher the frequency of a sound wave the?
the frequency of a sound wave is higher if its wavelength is shorter
What does the pitch of a sound wave depend on?
Timbre of the sound. It is related to the frequency of the fundamental frequency and a combination of overtones.
What is the sound of a wave?
The sound made by a wave depends on frequency and amplitude.
What is the wavelength in a sound wave?
To find the wavelength, the following formula applies: λ = ν / f That in common words is: Wavelength = Wave's Speed / Wave's Frequency So, Wavelength of sound wave = Speed of sound wave / Frequency of sound wave Now, Speed of sound wave is 343 m/s, so Wavelength of sound wave = 343 m/s / Frequency of sound wave Frequency of sound waves audible to a human ear range between 20 Hz to 20 kHz. So filling the desired sound frequency in the equation above you get the desired wavelength of that sound wave.
What does the high frequency of a sound wave determine?
The frequency of a sound wave determines the pitch. So if there is high frequency it means that the sound will also be high pitched. If it is low frequency that means the sound will be low pitched.
How the wavelength of a sound wave changes if the frequency of the wave increases?
frequency of wave is inversely proportional to wavelength
How the wavelength of a sound wave changes if frequency of the wave increase?
frequency of wave is inversely proportional to wavelength
Is frequency associated only with sound?
No, sound is a wave, all waves have a frequency. The frequency is how many waves pass by a certain point in 1 second. Sound is a longitudinal wave.
What is the frequency of the sound wave is?
The frequency of a sound wave is the characteristic of the wave that gives rise to the sensation of pitch, assuming that the wave is not so complex that it is perceived as white noise.
