What characteristic of a sound wave causes the loudness?
The perceived "loudness" of the sound varies directly as the amplitude of the wave.
What are the characteristics of a sound wave that you would interpret as loudness?
Basically, a sound wave is louder if it has a greater amplitude.
The loudness of a sound is related to what?
Loudness is the quality of a sound that is the primary psychological correlate of physical strength or amplitude. Loudness is a subjective felt impression and is in some way related to the objective measure of sound pressure.
Which wave characteristic is affected by the loudness or the intensity of sound?
Amplitude. (In the particle theory of light, brightness is determined by the number of photons).
What units is the loudness of sound measured?
Units used to measure loudness are Sone (loudness N) and Phon (loudness level L). Scroll down to related links and look at "Loudness - Wikipedia" and "Sound level change and the change of the respective factor of volume and loudness"
The characteristic of a sound wave that you interpret as loudness is related to?
Two answers to this: Pressure as in Sound Pressure Level or, Amplitude.
What characteristic of a sound wave causes the loudness?
The perceived "loudness" of the sound varies directly as the amplitude of the wave.
What is the characteristic of a sound wave that corresponds to loudness?
The bigger the troughs of the sound wave and height of the wave corresponds to the loudness the higher the wave the louder the sound.
What are the characteristics of a sound wave that you would interpret as loudness?
Basically, a sound wave is louder if it has a greater amplitude.
The loudness of a sound is related to what?
Loudness is the quality of a sound that is the primary psychological correlate of physical strength or amplitude. Loudness is a subjective felt impression and is in some way related to the objective measure of sound pressure.
Which wave characteristic is affected by the loudness or the intensity of sound?
Amplitude. (In the particle theory of light, brightness is determined by the number of photons).
What is the unit of the loudness of sound?
Loudness is the quality of a sound that is primarily a psychological correlate of physical strength or amplitude. You can try to measure the sound pressure in decibels. Scroll down to related links and look at "Loudness in sones - Wikipedia ", Loudness level in phon - Wikipedia ", and Subjectivly sensed loudness (volume), objectively measured sound pressure (voltage).
What units is the loudness of sound measured?
Units used to measure loudness are Sone (loudness N) and Phon (loudness level L). Scroll down to related links and look at "Loudness - Wikipedia" and "Sound level change and the change of the respective factor of volume and loudness"
How is the loudness of a sound related to the amplitude?
Loudness is really a subjective measure and is often confused with objective measures in decibel units of sound pressure or sound intensity.
What are the two characteristics of sound?
Intersty- is related to loudness. and Frequency- is related to pitch.
The characteristic which distinguishes sounds from two sources of sound of same loudness and same frequency is called what?
The sound color or the timbre.
What property of sound waves is related to the amplitude of the waves?
Loudness.
