A Flute has a higher pitched sound than a uba because it has a shorter tube length.
Remember: wave speed= wave length x frequency
..and a higher frequency equals a higher pitch and a low frequency equals a low pitch, a smaller wave length equals a high frequency and a larger wave length equals a low frequency/

∙ 13y agoThere are several characteristics that make flutes and piccolos sound high-pitched:
- Depends on how you blow into it (such as more air to get a high Bb, C, D, E, F, etc.)
- Depends on the length of the instrument (a shorter instrument has a higher-pitched sound, a longer instrument has a low-pitched sound; or not that high)
- Also depends on the number of keys you cover, because certain keys have higher sounds than others.
So I hope this helps you to exceed your knowledge of the flute!
