The frequency stays the same but the amplitude of the sound pressure goes up. That makes your ear drums more. In other words, change in amplitude causes a change in volume or loudness. Change in frequency cause a change in the pitch (high-low) of the sound, not the volume.

No. If it did, bands and orchestras could not exist, since the sounds of the louder instruments

would reach the ears of the audience before the sounds of the softer instruments, and the whole

performance would be reduced to chaos.

The speed of sound is the speed of sound, whether it's the sound of a mosquito or the sound of a 747.

Another contributor added:

The frequency does change though.

To which the original contributor countered:

Sorry. The frequency of a sound doesn't depend on its loudness either. If it did, a far-away sparrow

might sound like a fog-horn, or distant thunder might resemble the rumble of a piccolo.

What could this sound be When I am accelerating I hear a bit of a whinding sound and obviously when I speed up and change gears the sound gets a little louder and louder Also my clutch squeeks?

Can anyone help me? "How can you change sound?" is my question and when I type it up in the question box, it says 'Contributors have said that "How can you change sound?" is the same question as "What could this sound be when I am accelerating I hear a bit of a whinding sound and obviously when I speed up and change gears the sound gets a little louder and louder. Also, my clutch squeeks?" Who ever said that those to questions are the same is an idiot. This certainly doesn't help me with my homework!:( I'm very sad now!


What happen to the sound when the amplitude change?

It gets louder or quieter.


What happens to the sound as the amplitude of the sound wave increases?

Amplitude = "Loudness" In that a direct increase in amplitude will cause the sound to be "louder".


What happens when sound gets louder?

It means that the amplitude of the soundwaves is increased, or is increasing if the sound continues to get louder.


In general as the energy of a sound wave increases?

the sound gets louder


How do you think the wave from a loud sound compares to the wave from a soft sound?

The amplitude (The height of the wave) of the wave increases as the sound gets louder.

What lets you know that the source of a sound is moving toward or away from you?

When a sound-source moves toward you, its pitch gets higher and the sound gets louder. When it moves away, the pitch lowers and it gets quieter. The frequency change is called the Doppler shift.


What is the energy transformation of megaphone?

Electrical energy gets converted to sound energy. When we speak into the speaker, our sound waves get converted into electrical signals. These signals get amplified and emitted as louder sound. Thus, electrical energy (electrical signals) gets converted into sound energy (amplified/louder sound).
