Sound is a compression wave. Waves are basically movements in the medium through which energy travels. Compression waves cause the medium to move parallel to the energy movement. Electromagnetic waves, although they do not require a medium, move parallel to the transfer of energy.
A sound wave with high amplitude produces a louder sound compared to a sound wave with lower amplitude. It is perceived as a stronger or more intense sound.
When you clap your hands together, you create a compression wave, also known as a sound wave. This wave is produced by the vibrations of your hands colliding and propagates through the air as a pressure disturbance that we perceive as sound.
A standing wave?
The type of wave in which amplitude changes to create sound is a sound wave. Amplitude is the measure of the changes within the wave.
A sound wave is a mechanical wave that requires a medium for propagation. It consists of compressions and rarefactions of the medium that travel through it, carrying energy and causing the sensation of sound when they reach our ears.
Sound is a mechanical wave.Light is an electromagnetic wave.
Sound is a compressional wave.
transverst waves
It depends on the wavelength and frequency of the wave.
Increasing the amplitude of a wave will make the sound louder, while decreasing it will make the sound quieter. Amplitude affects the volume of the sound but not its pitch.
Sound travels in longitudinal waves, which means that the particles of the medium move in the same direction as the wave is propagating. This is in contrast to transverse waves where the particles move perpendicular to the wave's direction.
The amplitude of a sound wave determines the volume or loudness of the note. A higher amplitude wave produces a louder sound, while a lower amplitude wave produces a quieter sound.
