What does amplitude of a sound wave affect?

volume


What affect if any does frequency have on the amplitude of a wave?

The sound pressure amplitude tells about how loud the tone will be and the frequency (cycles per second) of the oscillation tells how high the sound of the tone will be. The amplitude gives the loudness of the tone: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudness The frequency gives the pitch of the tone: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitch_%28music%29


A change in loudness results from a changing of the of the sound waves.?

A change in the amplitude.


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?"


How will decreasing the amplitude of the sound waves from a TV affect its intensity?

Amplitude is intensity. It refers to the strength of a sound wave, which the human ear interprets as volume or loudness and if you decrease the amplitude you also decrease its intensity.

What happen to the sound when the amplitude change?

It gets louder or quieter.


When the loudness of a sound and amplitude of a sound increases the amplitude of the sound produced will be?

The loudness of a sound is the same thing as the overall amplitude of a sound. When measuring sound, in general, you have pitch (frequency) and tone (amplitude, the measure of loudness). So, if you increase the amplitude of a sound wave pattern, you increase the overall intensity of the sound (the energy), and that can be measured on the logarithmic scale of decibels, since an unconstrained, undirected sound wave carries its energy outward in all directions, in an increasing volume of air (or other medium).


How does amplitude affect the loudness of a sound?

it is how loud the sound is ^Smartass comment. The real answer: Loudness is determined by the intensity of sound waves.

What does amplitude have to do with sound?

amplitude is the height of the sound wave.


How does changing the amplitude of a wave impact wave speed?

Amplitude has to do with sound. Vibrating air creates sound using amplitude which is the size of the vibration, and how loud it is. Frequency is the speed of the vibration. The higher the speed, the higher the sound and vice-versa. Amplitude has no effect on wave speed as relates to sound. I believe the same holds for waves of water. Amplitude or size of the wave effects its impact, not its speed.
