Are loudness and pitch properties of sound or property of waves?

Loudness and pitch are properties of sound which can be determined by looking at the sound wave. You have a high pitch when the frequency of the wave increases or the wavelenght (lambda) decreases.
When the amplitude increases the loudness of the wave increases as well.

What is the property of a wave that determines volume or loudness?
Amplitude of the wave decides the loudness Frequency of the wave stands for the pitch of the sound
What property of sound describes your awareness of the energy of a sound?
loudness
What are the five properties used to explain the behavior of sound waves?
Speed Intensity Loudness Frequency Pitch :)
Which is a similarity between loudness and pitch?
There is no similarity. Loudness has to do with sound pressure amplitude coming from the sound source. Pitch has to do with the frequency of the tone the sound source is making. Loudness cannot be pitch.
What property of a sound wave governs its pitch its loudness its quality?
amplitude The amplitude of a sound wave determines its loudness or volume. A larger amplitude means a louder sound, and a smaller amplitude means a softer sound.
What properties of sound is determined by the strength of the vibrations creating the sound?
We can perceive different sound volumes because sound waves have differing amplitudes.
What properties of waves affect the pitch and loudness of sound?
The frequency of a wave affects the pitch of sound, with higher frequencies producing higher pitched sounds. The amplitude of a wave affects the loudness of sound, with greater amplitudes producing louder sounds.
Pitch describes the loudness of a sound?
Pitch describes the frequency of a sound.
Why are pitch and frequency similar to loudness and intensity?
sound has properties of loudness and pitch. The loudness of a sound depends on the amplitude of vibration. A speaker making a loud sound moves back and forth more than a speaker making a soft sound. The pitch of a sound depends on the frequency of vibration. A speaker making a high pitched sound like a siren vibrates with a higher frequency than the same speaker making a low pitched sound like thunder
Does a sound's pitch depend on its loudness?
No. A sound's pitch depends on the frequency of the wave.
Which property of sound describes your perception of the energy of a sound?
loudness.
The pitch of a sound that you hear depends on the sound waves?
LOUDNESS
