Is a pitch of a sound its wavelength?
true
The pitch of a sound wave is its wavelength?
Kind of. The pitch of a sound wave is its frequency, and because frequency = 1 / wavelength its pitch is related to the wave length. So to answer, no, the pitch of sound is not the wavelength itself, rather it is the inverse of the wavelength ( 1/wavelength)falseACJM
How does frequency change when wavelength shortens?
As wavelength shorten I believe the pitch will become higher
Is The pitch of a sound is determined by its wavelength and speed together or its?
The pitch of a sound can be determined by its frequencyalone.
What will you hear if the wavelength got shorter?
A sound with a pitch that is higher.
Does the notes actually go lower in pitch when it is slowed down?
Yes - as the sound is slowed, the wavelength is stretched. As the pitch is dependent on the frequency of the wavelength, longer wavelength = lower note
Is a pitch of a sound its wavelength?
true
What determines the highness or lowness of a sound?
Its wavelength, or pitch. Sound is only vibrations in the air. If the wavelength of the vibration is low, then it will sound "high". If the vibration has a high wavelength, then it will sound "low".

What happens to the wavelength of sound if the pitch increases from A440 to A880?
Alexis says ; The wavelength decreases.
What happens to the pitch of sound if the box is elongated?
The pitch gets lower as the wavelength expands
Is The pitch of a sound is determined by its wavelength and speed together or its?
The pitch of a sound can be determined by its frequencyalone.
What is pitch in terms of sound?
Either frequency or wavelength.
What pitch in terms of sounds?
Either frequency or wavelength.
Does wavelength affect pitch?
yes .it affects a lot :)
Are slow waves higher in pitch than fast waves?
Not necessarily. The frequency of a wave is equal to the speed divided by the wavelength so if it is fast and has a low wavelength then it will be high pitched. If it has a very large wavelength though it will have a lower pitch.
