Is frequency associated only with sound?

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.


Which characteristics of sound waves is defined as the number of waves that pass a certain point in a second?

frequency


What is the number of compressions or rarefactions that pass a point each second?

frequency (probably of sound which is also called the pitch)


How many waves pass a point in one second?

That number is equal to the frequency of the sound or electromagnetic radiation.


What is meant by the frequency of a wave?

The number of waves that pass a point in 1 second


What is the relationship between frequency and picth?

the number of waves that passes a given point in one second is called frequency pitch is related to loudness or amplitude of sound


What is the relation between loudness and frequency of sound?

From what I know from highschool/early university simple harmonic motions, I believe that there is no necessary link between loudness and frequency. Frequency (the number of times a wave completes an oscillation or cycle in one second) decides the pitch of the sound, while amplitude (the difference in height between the highest point in the sound wave and the lowest point) decides the loudness of the sound.


What is meant by intensity of sound how it is different from loudness?

loudness is the magnitude of wave of sound(the highest point reached by the wave). intensity is frequency of sound (that's how much a wave vibrates in 1 second)


What is the frequency of a sound wave that has thirty compressions in one second?

The frequency is 30 per second, or 30 'Hertz'.


A frequency of one sound wave per second is called?

Frequency is related by 1/Time. The unit is hertz (hz). One sound wave a second would yield a frequency of 1 hz.


What is the difference between the frequency and the speed of a sound?

Frequency is the number of cycles per second. Sound has frequency. The speed of sound is the distance traveled during a unit of time. 768 mph.


What unit is sound frequency measured in?

Frequency is measured in hertz. Cycles per second.
