How many waves pass a point in one second?
That number is equal to the frequency of the sound or electromagnetic radiation.
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.
The rate of vibration of a sound is called its?
The rate, cycles per second, for any repeating process (including waves) is called its frequency. The basic unit is the Hertz, meaning, how many cycles per second there are.
How many wavelengths pass by you in one second?
The number of waves that pass a certain point per second is called the FREQUENCY. The unit is the hertz (cycles per second).
What is the frequency when 300 waves pass a point in one minute?
Frequency = (how many in one second) = (1/60) of (how many in one minute) = (300/60) = 5 Hz.
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.
How many waves pass a point in one second?
That number is equal to the frequency of the sound or electromagnetic radiation.

How many waves are produced in one second?
It depends (IS) the frequency of the waves.
What does frequency mean in science term?
Frequency, referring to sound, is the amount of complete waves every second that produce sound. For example: High pitched sounds, like the sound that whistles make, have a high frequency (lots of waves per second). And Low pitched sounds like the sound that a subwoofer makes have a low frequency (Not so many waves per second) The average human can hear from 20hz (cycles per second) up to around 20,000hz (cycles per second)
How many times per second does a tuning fork vibrate if it is producing a sound wave in helium gas with a frequency of 384Hz?
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.
The rate of vibration of a sound is called its?
The rate, cycles per second, for any repeating process (including waves) is called its frequency. The basic unit is the Hertz, meaning, how many cycles per second there are.
What happen as the frequency of a sound wave increase?
The frequency of a sound wave increases because either the object making the sound is getting closer to you, or you are getting closer to it. Frequency tells you how many complete sound waves are produced in a certain amount of time (usually a second). As you get closer, the sound waves don't have to travel so far to reach you, so you hear them more often or more frequently; i.e., from your perspective, the frequency increases. Our brains interpret higher frequencies as higher pitched sounds.When the frequency of a sound wave increases, so does it's pitch In other words, you would hear a higher tone.
How many wavelengths pass by you in one second?
The number of waves that pass a certain point per second is called the FREQUENCY. The unit is the hertz (cycles per second).
How many sound waves are the each second?
i might tell you after if i can be arsed
What does frequencey mean in science?
frequency is the term used to describe how often something happens in a given amount of time. sound frequencies are measured in Hertz abbreviated as Hz which describes how many times the sound wave vibrates every second. For example Middle C in music is measured as approximately 262 Hz. That is the frequency that the note of Middle C vibrates at every second. But frequency does not only refer to sound. Waves on the beach have a frequency that can be measured, as do many other things. Anything that happens over and over with regular timing has a frequency.
How many sine waves does a loudspeaker produce in 1 second if its frequency is 256 Hertz?
256
