If a sound had a high amplitude and high frequency what would it sound like?
The sound would be like thunder, since thunder also has high amplitudes and frequency also. Usually at the begining of thunder you will listen cracking (krat..kat..krat .........) sound which is high frequency and high pitch. At the time when thundering is almost stop you will listen the heavy /bass sound which is very high amplitude and low frequency (goom.goom....goom...........) sound.
Why frequency of thunder is 50 hertz and frequency of whistle is 1000hertz?
It just is. Sound behaves like a wave, and the pitch of the sound affects the wavelength. And wavelength is directly related to the frequency. A high pitched sound has a a shorter wavelength and a higher frequency than a low-pitched sound.
