The frequency of sound is only determined by the source. It is constant, regardless of how much you change the speed of the sound (by changing the medium it travels in) or the wavelength. It is also got something to do with the amplitude of the wave for more information put: the amplitude of a soundwave. Into Google and will find many more things that will help u.

∙ 13y agoThe frequency of any wave it the amount of times any particular part of that wave passes a single fixed point in one second. The frequency of a wave is measured in Hertz (Hz) if you want to know.

The higher the frequency of a sound wave the?
the frequency of a sound wave is higher if its wavelength is shorter
Is high pitch close together spacing in sound waves?
No The pitch you hear is determined by the frequency of the sound wave (how fast the particles oscillate back and forth). Higher frequency => higher pitch.
What is determined by amplitude of a sound wave?
the strength or volume of the sound wave :)
The frequency of a sound wave determines?
the pitch of the sound.
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 gives a sound wave its pitch and intensity?
A sound wave's pitch is determined by its frequency; that is its cycles per unit of time. The sound wave's intensity or volume is determined by its amplitude; the maximum crest of a sound wave.
The pitch of a sound is determined by its wavelength and speed together or its alone?
The pitch of a sound can be determined by its frequencyalone.
How can you show the difference between pitch and loudness?
In terms of a wave, the pitch of a sound is determined by its frequency, which is also in inverse proportion to its wavelength. The loudness/volume of a sound is determined by the amplitude of the wave. Both higher frequency and higher amplitude signify more energy in a wave.
In music the frequency of a sound wave is called?
Pitch - In music, the higher or lower the pitch, the higher or lower the note. Pitch is determined by the frequency of the sound waves.
What sound wave is the pitch related to?
In a way, yes, as the pitch of a sound wave is determined by it's frequency f, and a waves period T is the reciprocal of f. i.e. T=1/f
What dose the frequency of a sound wave determine?
The frequency of a sound wave will determine the pitch (or note).
What is the velocity of a wave with a frequncy of 6 H and a wavelength of 2 m?
The velocity would be determined by the kind of wave. Sound or electromagnetic. Not by its frequency or wavelength.
Is ultrasonic wave radio frequency?
ultrasonic wave is sound frequency
What can be determined from the frequency of a light wave?
the energy of the wave brah
What can be determined from frequency of a light wave?
the energy of the wave brah
What can be determined from the frequency and wavelength in a wave?
the velocity of the wave -apex
What sound does a sinus wave make?
A sinus wave simply means that the instantaneous value is equal to the sine of the phase. Sound is determined more by the frequency of the wave. Frequency is the amount of time it takes for a wave to return to any given value repeatedly and is measured in Hertz (abbreviated Hz). A 1,000 Hz tone will sound much different than a 10,000 Hz tone. Changing the wave from sinusoidal to a trapezoidal or square wave will have an effect on sound but this is normally heard as the frequency of the wave with distortion.
