What part of a sound is decided by the frequency of its vibrations?

The frequency of a sound determines its pitch. Most sounds are composed of many frequencies. The other major component of sound is its amplitude, or its loudness.


What is the speed of sound vibrations?

Frequency


How does sound affect frequency?

The definition of sound is : "Vibrations that travel through the air or another medium and can be heard when they reach a person's or animal's ear." Sound can be measured by amplitude (loudness) and pitch (The frequency of the vibrations). Therefore sound does not affect frequency but frequency affects the pitch of the sound.


What does frequency describes?

It describes sound waves and vibrations.


Why car making high frequency sound when accerelating?

The answer is essentially in the question. Sound is the sensation caused by vibrations in the air. The faster the vibrations, the higher the frequency. So, when an engine is revved, the frequency of the vibrations it creates increases, and it gives higher frequency sounds, perceived as an increase in pitch.


What does a high frequency of vibrations produce?

Heat, light and, if in an atmosphere, sound.


What is description of sound?

vibrations transmitted through an elastic solid liquid or gas or a transmitted vibrations of any frequency


Is the frequency of sound vibrations affected by the pitch of the sound?

Yes, and an easier way to think about it is to remember that the pitch of a sound is directly affected by the frequency of the sound vibrations. For instance, when you tighten a string on a guitar, the tighter string creates more vibrations, thus a higher pitch.


What cause the pitch of a sound to change?

The frequency of the vibrations. Sound frequencies are directly related to the perceived pitch.


The frequency of sound vibrations is measured in?

Same as any other frequency: in Hertz, or some multiple, like kilohertz.


Indicate the frequency level of a sound?

Frequency is usually not measured in "levels" (though the sound pressure or volume is) Frequency is measured in Hz (Hertz) or vibrations per second. Sound pressure is measured in Decibels


How do vibrations affect sound?

a vibrating body produces sound. ie only if an object vibrates will it produce sound. the faster the object vibrates, the louder the sound and vice-versa. the no of vibrations per seceon is called frequency. thus if an object has a higher frequency, then it produces a louder and shriller sound...
