What does the amplitude of a sound wave determine?

Amplitude is the energy of a sound wave, which we also call Loudness


Does the amplitude determine the loudness of a sound?

No, the amplitude of a sound wave determines its intensity, not its perceived loudness. Loudness is subjective and depends on the sensitivity of the human ear to different frequencies at different sound pressure levels.


On what factor the loudness of sound depend upon?

The loudness of a sound depends on the amplitude of the sound wave. A higher amplitude corresponds to a louder sound. The human perception of loudness also depends on the frequency of the sound wave and the sensitivity of the human ear.


What could you use to measure the loudness of the sound?

Units used to measure loudness are Sone (loudness N) and Phon (loudness level L). Scroll down to related links and look at "Loudness - Wikipedia" and "Sound level change and the change of the respective factor of volume and loudness".


What does the amplitude of a wave tell about a sound?

Amplitude is the maximum displacement of a wave. The amplitude determine the loudness of the sound


What units are used to measure sound loudness and softness?

What does the amplitude of a sound wave determine in a tuning fork?

Loudness or volume.


What factor determines the loudness of a sound?

Frequency of the sound wave ?Amplitude of the sound wave ?The temperature of the medium ?The density of the medium ?


What is the unit of the loudness of sound?

Loudness is the quality of a sound that is primarily a psychological correlate of physical strength or amplitude. You can try to measure the sound pressure in decibels. Scroll down to related links and look at "Loudness in sones - Wikipedia ", Loudness level in phon - Wikipedia ", and Subjectivly sensed loudness (volume), objectively measured sound pressure (voltage).
