i might tell you after if i can be arsed
If a note has a frequency of 400 Hz, it means that there are 400 sound waves produced in one second. The frequency of a sound wave is the number of complete waves that pass a point in one second.

No, sound is a wave, all waves have a frequency. The frequency is how many waves pass by a certain point in 1 second. Sound is a longitudinal wave.
If a note has a frequency of 400 Hz, it means that 400 sound waves pass a point per second. This is because the frequency of a sound wave is the number of complete cycles of a wave that pass a point in a given time period, usually one second. Therefore, in this case, 400 complete cycles or sound waves pass a point in one second.
400. Hz (hertz) means cycles per second.
The Sound of Waves by Yukio Mishima has 181 pages in its English translation.
transverse; longitudinal.
there are two types of sound waves. (1) transverses waves (2) longitudinal waves
No, The sound waves itself travels at the slowest speed of its medium regardless of rarefraction or compression, which effects the frequency of the sound wave (how many peaks pass through in 1 second). So a 500hz tonal would pass through at the same time as a 50hz tonal, but the 50hz would have much less energy passing by per second than the 500hz tonal.
Sound is a moving along as a wave in the air. The pitch you hear depends on how many waves per second impinge on your ear. When you move towards the source, more waves pass you each second ---> higher pitch. Why do more waves pass you each second when you move toward the source ? Try this: Think of standing at the bottom of an escalator, with the steps coming down toward you. Now, if you start walking up the staircase next to the escalator, the escalator steps will pass you faster ---> more of them each second.
The frequency of a wave motion is the number of waves passing through a fixed position each second. Thus, the sound wave emitted from the tuning fork has a frequency of 384 Hz means that the fork is vibrating 384 times per second.
