Does the size of the vibration affect the loudness of the sound?

Yes, the higher the amplitude the higher the sound pressure or sound pressure level. The closer your head is to the sound source the more sound pressure your eardrums get. Feelings are different from person to person. So don't talk of "measuring" the "loudness". You can really measure the sound pressure (amplitude) with a sound pressure level meter. Microphones and eardrums are only sensitive to the sound pressure. Forget the sound intensity. Scroll down to related links and look for more on decreasing of sound pressure with distance.


How does the vibration of the fork changes as the sound becomes less loud?

As the sound becomes less loud, the amplitude of vibration of the tuning fork decreases. This means that the fork moves back and forth with less intensity. The frequency of vibration, however, remains constant regardless of the sound's loudness.


How does the harp adjust its volume?

It doesn't. If you want the harp to sound louder then you must pluck the string louder which is usually done by plucking it harder. For a quieter and softer sound you pluck the string more gently. If you want to be heard over other instruments or some other noise, play in front of a microphone that is pointed towards the strings.


How can you see sound vibrations?

You can't see sound vibrations directly because they are invisible to the naked eye. However, you can observe their effects by watching objects move or vibrate in response to sound waves, such as seeing a speaker cone move when music is playing. Additionally, specialized equipment like a spectrum analyzer can visually represent sound vibrations in a graphical format.


Are there echo in cave?

Yes, caves can create echoes due to the reverberation of sound waves off the walls and surfaces. The acoustics of a cave can amplify and prolong the sound, creating a noticeable echo effect.

Are loudness and pitch properties of sound or property of waves?

Loudness and pitch are properties of sound which can be determined by looking at the sound wave. You have a high pitch when the frequency of the wave increases or the wavelenght (lambda) decreases. When the amplitude increases the loudness of the wave increases as well.


What factors affect the pitch and loudness of the sound produced by the rubber bands?

What are the five properties used to explain the behavior of sound waves?

The five properties used to explain the behavior of sound waves are frequency (pitch), amplitude (loudness), wavelength, speed, and direction. These properties help describe how sound waves travel and interact with different mediums.


What are the perceptual qualities related to the physical properties of sound including intensity and frequency?

Perceptual qualities related to the physical properties of sound include loudness, which is related to intensity, and pitch, which is related to frequency. Loudness is the perceived volume of a sound, while pitch is how high or low a sound is perceived to be. These perceptual qualities are directly influenced by the physical properties of sound waves.


Which is a similarity between loudness and pitch?

There is no similarity. Loudness has to do with sound pressure amplitude coming from the sound source. Pitch has to do with the frequency of the tone the sound source is making. Loudness cannot be pitch.


Does loudness of the sound effect its speed?

No, the loudness of a sound does not affect its speed. The speed of sound is determined by the properties of the medium through which it is traveling, such as air or water. The loudness of a sound is related to its amplitude or intensity.


How is pitch and loudness changed?

Pitch is changed by altering the frequency of a sound wave, with higher frequencies resulting in higher pitch. Loudness is changed by adjusting the amplitude or intensity of a sound wave, with greater amplitude producing louder sounds. Both pitch and loudness can be modified by factors such as distance, medium of transmission, and physical properties of the sound source.


Explain what factors affect the loudness of a sound?

usually the pitch of the sound the frequency of the sound affect the loudness but as we say loud we mean how high the sound. In other terms when somebody shouts and we get irritated we would say "Not so loud" that means we refer to the person who is speaking loudly. this is known as the factors that affect sound


Does a sound's pitch depend on its loudness?

No. A sound's pitch depends on the frequency of the wave.


What would change if you turn up a radios volume wave velocity intensity pitch amplitude frequency wavelenght or loudness?

Turning up a radio's volume increases the loudness, which is the perceived intensity of the sound. Loudness is directly related to the amplitude of the audio waves produced by the radio. Increasing the volume will not affect the other properties such as wave velocity, pitch, frequency, or wavelength.


How do you compare loudness and pitch o a sound?

Loudness refers to the intensity or volume of a sound, while pitch refers to the frequency of the sound waves. A loud sound has higher amplitude and is perceived as stronger, whereas pitch is determined by the frequency of sound waves and how high or low they are. In summary, loudness is about the strength of a sound, while pitch is about its frequency.


Is pitch inversely proportional to loudness?

No, pitch and loudness are not directly related in that way. Pitch refers to the frequency of a sound wave, while loudness refers to the intensity or volume of a sound. They can vary independently of each other.
