A frequency meter is the instrument that is used to measure the amplitude of sound. It reads the energy from a sound wave.

Amplitude is in music?

In music, amplitude refers to the loudness of a sound. It measures the strength or intensity of a sound wave, often represented by the height of the wave's peaks. A higher amplitude corresponds to a louder sound, while a lower amplitude corresponds to a quieter sound.


What instrument measures uterine depth?

A uterine sound measures uterine depth.


What measures the force of a compression and describes how loud a sound is?

The force of compression in a sound wave is measured by its amplitude, which determines how loud the sound is perceived. Amplitude is the magnitude of the displacement of particles in the medium caused by the sound wave. A larger amplitude signifies a stronger compression, leading to a louder sound.


What is the volume of a sound most closely associated with of a wave?

The volume of a sound is most closely associated with the amplitude of the wave. The greater the amplitude of the sound wave, the louder the volume perceived by our ears. Amplitude measures the intensity or strength of the sound wave, which directly correlates with how loud the sound is.


What instrument measures the volume of sound?

a decibel meter.


Which wave characteristic is most related to sound wave intensity?

Sound wave intensity is most closely related to the amplitude of the wave, which measures the strength or height of the wave. Greater amplitude corresponds to greater intensity, or louder sound.


What is an objects that make high amplitude sound?

Musical instruments like drums, trombones, and trumpets can produce high amplitude sound. This type of sound is typically loud and carries a lot of energy due to the vibrations of the instrument.


What instrument measures the intensity of an sound?

A sound level meter measures the intensity of sound in decibels. It consists of a microphone to capture the sound and a display to show the measured levels.


What is another way of measuring the amplitude of a guitar?

Another way of measuring the amplitude of a guitar is by using a decibel meter to quantify the sound intensity produced by the instrument.


What instrument measures sound intensity?

An oscilloscope measures electrical signal amplitude and wavelength. A decibel or sound-level meter. A cheap one is available at your local Walmart for about $20 located in the car audio section. If not instore, online. They make much better ones, but if you are looking to just get a rough idea, this is the way to go.


A sound waves amplitude corresponds to the sounds what?

Usually, people are asking as if there is just "the" amplitude in sound waves in air. The loudness perception of a sound is determined by the amplitude of the sound waves − the higher the amplitude, the louder the sound. Which amplitude of sound (sound amplitude) do you mean? There are: amplitude of particle displacement ξ, or displacement amplitude amplitude of sound pressure p or pressure amplitude amplitude of sound particle velocity v, or particle velocity amplitude amplitude of pressure gradient Δ p, or pressure gradient amplitude. Furthermore, think of the amplitude of the oscillation of a string. The maximum magnitude of the deflection of a wave is called amplitude. Look at link: "What is an amplitude?"


Why does the sound of an instrument sound different when you hit it harder?

You are supplying more energy. Whatever vibrates to provide the sound does so with bigger amplitude, and the sound will have more and different harmonics.
