The pitch of sound depends on the sound's frequency. Frequency is basically the amount of waves the sound is producing. If there are many waves, "happen frequently", it is a high frequency. This is a high pitch. If the distance between the waves is large, it is a low frequency and a low pitch.

How does wavelength affect sound and light?
Sound - pitch Light - color.
When does a high pitch sound occur?
Whenever there's something vibrating, in the upper range of human hearing, there may be a high pitch sound.
How does changing the loudness and pitch of a sound affect the ear drum?
How could you make sounds of diffrent pitch and loudessn with the two drums
What factor determine's the pitch of sound?
Pitch is determined by sound wave frequency; how fast something is vibrating. High-pitched sounds are higher frequency meaning they are vibrating faster. Low pitch means they are vibrating slower.
Why sound is made when the wind blows through the leaves on a tree?
Sound is caused by a vibration of the leaves. Depending on the shape and stiffness of the leaves, the sound will sound different. Also the speed of the wind will affect the loudness and pitch of the sound.
How does wavelength affect sound and light?
Sound - pitch Light - color.
What is the word used to describe highness or lowness of a sound?
Pitch.
How does the pitch of a sound affect its speed?
Pitch of sound in air does not affect the speed of sound.The speed of sound in air is also not affected by atmospheric pressure.Temperature does affect the speed of sound in air.Similar statements are not true for liquids or solids. It stops being true for gasses when pressure and temperature are near the point that the gas will liquify.
What are the factors affect the pitch of sound?
okay whoever said that mass affected pitch is just stupid.... Frequency and amplitude affect pitch
How does sound affect frequency?
The definition of sound is : "Vibrations that travel through the air or another medium and can be heard when they reach a person's or animal's ear." Sound can be measured by amplitude (loudness) and pitch (The frequency of the vibrations). Therefore sound does not affect frequency but frequency affects the pitch of the sound.
Does wind affect the pitch of a whistle?
the pitch doesnt actually change but it might sound quieter to you because the sound it being blown away
How does frequency affect the pitch of a sound?
For all practical purposes they are equal.
How does frequency of waves affect the pitch of the sound produced by vibrating objects?
The higher the frequency, the higher the pitch.
Does the temperature of water affect the pitch of sound?
Presumably you mean sound traveling through water. Temperature affects the density of water, therefore the speed of sound in water, and pitch is frequency, so yes, temperature affects pitch.
How does the frequency of a sound wave affect pitch?
For all practical purposes they are equal.
What factors affect the pitch and loudness of the sound produced by the rubber bands?
wala
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.
