If you're talking "music", you could possible call it pitch. Each note (pitch) has a specific frequency.

How does the frequency of a sound wave affect the speed at which the sound wave moves?
Frequency and speed of propagation of the wave are independent of one another. The medium determines the speed of propagation.
The higher the frequency of a sound wave the?
the frequency of a sound wave is higher if its wavelength is shorter
The frequency of a sound wave determines?
the pitch of the sound.
Pitch corresponds to what characteristics of a sound wave?
Frequency and amplitude.
A sound wave has compressions that are very close to each other What is true about this sound wave?
The frequency of this sound wave is very near constant.
Which term describes the perceived frequency of a sound wave?
pitch
What Is the term for the blending of overlapping sound wave frequency through interference?
Sound quality is the term for the bending of overlapping sound wave frequencies through interference.
How does the frequency of a sound wave affect the speed at which the sound wave moves?
Frequency and speed of propagation of the wave are independent of one another. The medium determines the speed of propagation.
What dose the frequency of a sound wave determine?
The frequency of a sound wave will determine the pitch (or note).
Is ultrasonic wave radio frequency?
ultrasonic wave is sound frequency
The pitch of a sound wave is its?
Its' frequency.
The higher the frequency of a sound wave the?
the frequency of a sound wave is higher if its wavelength is shorter
What does the pitch of a sound wave depend on?
Timbre of the sound. It is related to the frequency of the fundamental frequency and a combination of overtones.
What is the sound of a wave?
The sound made by a wave depends on frequency and amplitude.
What is the wavelength in a sound wave?
To find the wavelength, the following formula applies: λ = ν / f That in common words is: Wavelength = Wave's Speed / Wave's Frequency So, Wavelength of sound wave = Speed of sound wave / Frequency of sound wave Now, Speed of sound wave is 343 m/s, so Wavelength of sound wave = 343 m/s / Frequency of sound wave Frequency of sound waves audible to a human ear range between 20 Hz to 20 kHz. So filling the desired sound frequency in the equation above you get the desired wavelength of that sound wave.
What does the high frequency of a sound wave determine?
The frequency of a sound wave determines the pitch. So if there is high frequency it means that the sound will also be high pitched. If it is low frequency that means the sound will be low pitched.
How the wavelength of a sound wave changes if the frequency of the wave increases?
frequency of wave is inversely proportional to wavelength
