In my book the pitch of sound is the frequency. Musicians have different names for pitch, like middle C or F sharp, but they all correspond to certain frequencies.
The answer above is not correct it is totally unsenceable
Pitch depends on the frequency of a sound wave. Higher frequency sound waves result in higher pitch, while lower frequency sound waves result in lower pitch. The pitch of a sound is perceived by the human ear based on the frequency of the sound wave.
The pitch of a sound is most closely related to the frequency of the sound wave. Higher frequency sound waves are perceived as higher pitch, while lower frequency sound waves are perceived as lower pitch.
I think the answer you seek is frequency. A low pitch equals a low frequency of the sound wave.
The pitch of a sound is determined by its frequency alone. The frequency refers to how many times a sound wave oscillates per second, which directly correlates with the pitch we perceive. The speed of sound affects the propagation of the sound wave but not its pitch.
The frequency of a sound determines its pitch. Most sounds are composed of many frequencies. The other major component of sound is its amplitude, or its loudness.
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.
The pitch of a sound is primarily affected by the frequency of the sound wave. Higher frequency sound waves result in higher pitch, while lower frequency sound waves result in lower pitch. Other factors that can affect pitch include the size and shape of the vibrating object producing the sound.
The higher the frequency, the higher the pitch.
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.
Pitch is related to the frequency of a sound wave, where higher pitch corresponds to a higher frequency and vice versa. Pitch does not affect the speed of sound, as the speed of sound is determined by the medium through which the wave is traveling and is constant for a given medium.
For all practical purposes they are equal.
okay whoever said that mass affected pitch is just stupid.... Frequency and amplitude affect pitch
It is the frequency of a sound that determines its pitch. The higher the frequency, the higher the pitch.
When the frequency of the vibrations that produce the sound change. Higher frequencies -> higher pitch. OR if the source of the sound is moving towards or away from you -> Doppler effect.
For all practical purposes they are equal.
The frequency of a sound wave affects the pitch of the sound. If the frequency of a wave increases causing more waves for every second, the pitch will go up, and vice-versa.
The frequency of violin strings affects the pitch of the sound produced by the instrument. Higher frequency strings produce higher pitch sounds, while lower frequency strings produce lower pitch sounds.
