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.

What three things affect the frequency of a sound wave?
Velocity, temperature and pressure.
How does the frequency of a sound wave affect the speed at which the sound wave moves?
Frequency and speed of propagation of the wave are independent of one another. The medium determines the speed of propagation.
Does the speed of sound independent of frequency?
It is independent of frequency.
Find the frequency of a sound wave that has a wavelength of 1.5 meter. Could you hear this sound?
Frequency= 226.67 Yes, we can hear this sound.
What is the frequency of the ultrasound compared to the sound?
Ultrasound cannot be heard as it has a higher frequency than audible sound, with a frequency above 20000Hz.
What are two factors that affect sound quality?
Speed of Sound and frequency
What doesnt affect the frequency of a sound wave?
different mediums
How does frequency of waves affect the pitch of the sound produced by vibrating objects?
The higher the frequency, the higher the pitch.
Describe something that can affect the pitch of sound?
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 frequency affect the pitch of a sound?
For all practical purposes they are equal.
How does the frequency of a sound wave affect pitch?
For all practical purposes they are equal.
What three things affect the frequency of a sound wave?
Velocity, temperature and pressure.
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.
How does the frequency of a sound wave affect the speed at which the sound wave moves?
Frequency and speed of propagation of the wave are independent of one another. The medium determines the speed of propagation.
How does the relative motion of a motorcycle affect the frequency of the sound heard by an observer on the sidewak?
as the motorcycle approaches the observer, the frequency increases.
What does the freqency of a sound wave affect?
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.
Does sound waves affect the makings of a spiders web?
Every material resonates at its own frequency.
