frequency
An oscilloscope is the machine, but it measures frequency.... so sound waves are measured by frequency
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.
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.
It sound of pitch
Speed = frequency x wavelengthThis is true for all waves, sound waves as well as electromagnetic waves.
Ultrasonic sound.
The sound that you hear.

Pitch
An audio frequency is a frequency, or range of frequencies, of audible sound waves.
