Not if they are at a different frequency, because hearing is frequency dependent.

A sound waves amplitude corresponds to the sounds what?
Usually, people are asking as if there is just "the" amplitude in sound waves in air. The loudness perception of a sound is determined by the amplitude of the sound waves − the higher the amplitude, the louder the sound. Which amplitude of sound (sound amplitude) do you mean? There are: amplitude of particle displacement ξ, or displacement amplitude amplitude of sound pressure p or pressure amplitude amplitude of sound particle velocity v, or particle velocity amplitude amplitude of pressure gradient Δ p, or pressure gradient amplitude. Furthermore, think of the amplitude of the oscillation of a string. The maximum magnitude of the deflection of a wave is called amplitude. Look at link: "What is an amplitude?"
What does amplitude of a sound wave determine?
Amplitude is the volume of the sound in sound waves. The higher the Amplitude, the louder is the sound. Sound waves are pressure or compression waves in the material through which the sound is traveling. The pressure or compression waves also result in small longitudinal displacements of the atoms or molecules. The amplitude of the sound wave determines the range of variation of pressure, compression, or displacement.
What property of sound waves is related to the amplitude of the waves?
Loudness.
What does the amplitude of a wave depend on?
In the case of sound, amplitude is related to volume or loudness.- loud sounds generate waves of larger amplitude and your ear would register sound waves of large amplitude as louder.
Which of these associated with the loudness of sound waves?
Amplitude
Do two sound waves has equally same amplitude?
They can but not necessarily.
If a band is playing loudly will the amplitude of the sound waves be small or large?
The amplitude of the sound waves will be largerbecause the larger the amplitude the louderthe sound.

Is the loudness of the sound its waves amplitude?
Yes.
What is intensity as it relates to sound waves?
Amplitude.
Which of these associated with the loudness of sound waves?
Amplitude
What does amplitude measure?
Sound energy travels in waves and is measured in frequency and amplitude
Which factor determine the loudness of a sound?
The amplitude of the sound waves in the medium.
What happens to the amplitude of the sound wave as the sound get louder?
Pitch is a characteristic decided by the frequency. So high pitch high frequency. Low frequency is the cause of low Pitch. Frequency and wavelength are always inversely related. So wavelength increases. But amplitude in no way is related to the pitch. Hence amplitude could remain the same.
