That all depends on the frequency of the sound and its speed in whatever substance
it happens to be traveling through.
In air, the wavelength of audible frequencies ranges from about 17.1 millimeters to
about 17.1 meters.

Does sound produce waves?
Yes sound does produce waves. These special waves are called sound waves.
Does a soft sound have tall waves?
No, soft sound waves have short waves. Loud sound waves are the ones that have tall waves.
Why are sound waves are described as pressure waves?
Sound waves are described as pressure waves because waves produces pressure by which sound is produces
How does the length of a pipe affect pitch?
The sound produced by a pipe is due to standing waves that are formed in the body of the pipe. The fundamental frequency,f1, produced, is given by the formula : f1=v/2L , where v is the velocity of the wave and depends only on the physical characteristics of the mean (e.g. air density), and L is the length of the pipe. So if the length increases the frequency decreases.
Bats can sense obstacles because they produce 1. supersonic sound waves 2. ultrasonic sound waves 3.infrasonic sound waves 4. micro Sound waves?
ultrasonic sound waves
Do microwaves work with sound waves at all?
Microwaves and sound waves are similar because they are electromagnetic waves. The main difference between the two types of waves is the length of the wave. Sound waves are longer than microwaves.
How does the frequency and wave length of the sound waves be produce and changed with a guitar?
because it makes sound
What are high frequency sounds?
A series of short length sound waves.
Do all sound waves have the same wave length but different frequencies?
no
What are the waves of a stethoscope?
A stethoscope consists of two equal-length tubes of air, physicallyjoined, which conduct sound waves to the examiner's ears.
What sound waves do?
Sound waves carry sound
Does sound produce waves?
Yes sound does produce waves. These special waves are called sound waves.
Sound waves are examples of what?
sound waves are a example of mechanical waves
Does a soft sound have tall waves?
No, soft sound waves have short waves. Loud sound waves are the ones that have tall waves.
Why are sound waves are described as pressure waves?
Sound waves are described as pressure waves because waves produces pressure by which sound is produces
What does sound travel on?
Waves; sound waves.
