Which wave property is related to how soft or loud a sound is?
amplitude
What is loud sound and soft sound?
Loudness and softness are relative, and they are what would be called psychophysical variables. Loudness is related to the amplitude of a sound wave. Amplitude is how high up and low down the wave form goes relative to the x-coordinate. The greater the amplitude the louder the sound, all other things being equal.
Why is a sound wave with a larger amplitude more likely to damage your hearing that one with a small amplitude?
Loud sounds carry more energy than soft sounds!
How are volume and amplitude related?
The higher the amplitude the higher the volume. bigger sound wave = louder noise.
What property of a wave corresponds to the brightness of light or how loud a sound is?
the amplitude
Which wave property is related to how soft or loud a sound is?
amplitude
How do you think the wave from a loud sound compares to the wave from a soft sound?
The amplitude (The height of the wave) of the wave increases as the sound gets louder.
What is the difference between a loud and soft sound?
Sound is actually a vibration in the air which travels in the form of a wave. The larger the amplitude of the wave, the "louder" the sound. the smaller the amplitude of the wave, the "softer" the sound.

What does the the amplitude look like for a loud sound?
The amplitude of a sound wave is a measure of its loudness. A loud sound will have a higher amplitude.
What do we see that the amplitude of a wave produces?
The amplitude of a wave produces the intensity of the wave. With a light wave, it is the intensity of the light, with a sound wave, it is how loud the sound is
What property of a sound wave changes when a sound gets soft?
The amplitude of a sound wave is perceived as the sound's loudness.
What properties of sound depend on the energy and intensity of the sound wave?
Its volume or how loud it is.
