What does the amplitude of a sound wave determine?
Amplitude is the energy of a sound wave, which we also call Loudness
What units are used to measure sound loudness and softness?
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 is the loudness of a sound?
Loudness of a sound can be measured by a sound pressure level meter. It belongs to psycho acoustics.Loudness is a subjective measure, which is often confused with objective measures of sound prtessure such as decibels or sound intensity. Filters such as A-weighting attempt to adjust sound measurements to correspond to loudness as perceived by the average human. However, as the perception of loudness varies from person to person it cannot be universally measured using any single metric. Loudness is also affected by parameters other than sound pressure, including frequency and duration. In acoustics volume is related to amplitude, sound pressure, and dynamics.There is subjectivly perceived loudness (volume), objectively measured sound pressure (voltage), and theoretically calculated sound intensity (acoustic power).Scroll down to related links and look at "All about loudness".
When the loudness of a sound and amplitude of a sound increases the amplitude of the sound produced will be?
The loudness of a sound is the same thing as the overall amplitude of a sound. When measuring sound, in general, you have pitch (frequency) and tone (amplitude, the measure of loudness). So, if you increase the amplitude of a sound wave pattern, you increase the overall intensity of the sound (the energy), and that can be measured on the logarithmic scale of decibels, since an unconstrained, undirected sound wave carries its energy outward in all directions, in an increasing volume of air (or other medium).
What is the Perceived amount of energy in a sound wave?
The perceived amount of energy in a sound wave is related to its amplitude, which corresponds to the loudness of the sound. The higher the amplitude of a sound wave, the louder it will be perceived. Energy is also related to frequency - higher frequency sound waves are perceived as more energetic or "brighter" in quality.
Is the loudness of a sound is called its intensity?
Yes the loudness of a sound is called its intensity.
What two factors dos loudness depend on?
The loudness of a sound depends on the amplitude of the sound waves, which is related to the intensity or power of the sound source. It also depends on the distance between the sound source and the listener, as sound waves lose intensity as they travel through space.
The characteristic of a sound wave that you interpret as loudness is related?
to its amplitude. The greater the amplitude of a sound wave, the louder it will be perceived. This is because amplitude is directly correlated with the amount of energy carried by the wave, impacting the intensity of the sound.
What property of sound describes your awareness of the energy of a sound?
Loudness is the property of sound that describes our awareness of the energy of a sound. It is subjective and depends on the amplitude of the sound wave.
How are the sound intensity and loudness related?
Sound intensity is a physical quantity that measures the amount of sound energy passing through a unit area, expressed in watts per square meter. Loudness, on the other hand, is a perceptual response to sound intensity and is subjective. In general, as sound intensity increases, the perceived loudness also increases. However, the relationship between intensity and loudness is not linear but follows a logarithmic scale.
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.
How loud a sound is depends on the wavelength of the sound?
The loudness of a sound is typically measured in terms of intensity or amplitude, not wavelength. The wavelength of a sound wave affects its pitch, not its loudness. Sound intensity is related to the amount of energy carried by the sound wave.
What happens to the volume of sound when the amplitude increases?
When the amplitude of a sound wave increases, the volume or loudness of the sound also increases. This is because amplitude is directly related to the amount of energy in a sound wave, and a higher amplitude means more energy is being transferred, resulting in a louder sound.
What is meant by the loudness of sound?
Loudness is the quality of a sound that is the primary psychological correlate of physical strength (amplitude). It is a feeling, which is neither the sound pressure as field quantity nor the acoustic intensity as energy quantity. Scroll down to related links and look at "Loudness - Wikipedia".
What is the energy of a sound wave closely related to?
It is most closely related to its amplitude (loudness, magnitude) because this is determined by the energy used to create the sound. Louder noises generally take more energy to create.
How loudness is produced?
Loudness is produced by the amplitude of sound waves, which corresponds to the amount of energy they carry. When sound waves with higher amplitudes enter our ears, they cause a stronger vibration of the eardrum, which our brain interprets as a louder sound. The louder the sound, the more intense the vibrations and the greater the perception of loudness.
