What difference in a note does the amplitude of its sound wave make?
is when sound going up wave is going down
What difference in a note does the amplitude of its sound make?
is when sound going up wave is going down
How does the air particles vibrate and make a sound wave?
well...the particles in the air start to go up and down so a sound wave starts to form,then that sound wave travels in to peoples ears etchope this answer was useful :)
Why do you hear a sound when you clap your hands together?
the hands make a compression wave that travels through the air. Your ears pick up that compression wave and turns it into a neuron impulse that your brain registers as sound.
What wave is made up of a series of compressions and rarefactions?
it is compressional wave. Compressional waves are a type of sound wave.

Do particles of air in a sound wave move up and down?
no, they move horizontally along the direction of the sound wave movement.
What does the freqency of a sound wave affect?
The frequency of a sound wave affects the pitch of the sound. If the frequency of a wave increases causing more waves for every second, the pitch will go up, and vice-versa.
The difference between a low amplitude sound wave and a high amplitude sound wave is what?
The difference is that a low wave have long and smooth wave and a high wave has skinny and cramped togetther waves
How does your ears pick up sound?
Your ears don't pick up the sound, by the way. Well, you should know that sound is actually a wave that is vibrating. When sound is realeased, the wave travels until it halts. IF your in the distance of the waves aim, the wave will hit your ear drum. Then it vibrates into your ear, and your brain translates it for you. Then you hear sound.
What type of wave makes up sound waves?
longitudinal wave formed due to compressions and rarefractions of media through which sound is propogating
What wave is made up of a series of compressions and rarefactions?
it is compressional wave. Compressional waves are a type of sound wave.
What are the features of sound wave?
A sound wave is a vibration of air that travels at approximately 767mph. The higher up these vibrations go (amplitude), the louder the sound is. The closer together these vibrations are (frequency), the higher pitch the sound will be.
