The frequency is also lowered. They're the same thing.

Is the amplitude of a sound wave determined by the sounds pitch?

No, the amplitude of a sound wave is determined by the energy or intensity of the sound wave, not its pitch. Pitch is determined by the frequency of the sound wave, which is how fast the wave is vibrating.


A change in frequency is a change in what?

A change in frequency is a change in pitch, in terms of sound. try to picture a sine wave in your mind. When you lower the frequency of the wave, it stretches the sine wave out (Which is how the pitch of the sound is lowered. I'm assume that you're question is about Audio.) For example, if you had a sound wave at 440Hz (And is aslo the musical note "A" on the center octave), and you changed its frequency to 329.63Hz, it would then sound lower in pitch (The musical note of "E") I hope that helps ;) ~Mitch


What happens to a sound if the frequency is increased?

If the frequency of a sound wave is increased, the pitch of the sound also increases, making it sound higher. This means that the number of complete cycles of the wave occurring in a second is increased.


What happens if you lower the frequency of a wave on a string?

Lowering the frequency of a wave on a string will result in a longer wavelength and a lower pitch sound.


Does amplitude change when the pitch get higher?

No, the amplitude of a sound wave does not change as the pitch gets higher. The amplitude of a sound wave determines the loudness of the sound, while the pitch is determined by the frequency of the wave.


If the pitch of the sound coming out from q speaker increases which is true about the sound wave?

If the pitch of the sound increases, the frequency of the sound wave also increases. This means that the sound wave is oscillating at a faster rate, creating a higher pitch.


What gives a sound wave its pitch and intensity?

A sound wave's pitch is determined by its frequency; that is its cycles per unit of time. The sound wave's intensity or volume is determined by its amplitude; the maximum crest of a sound wave.


How do you raise the pitch of the sound caused by a sound wave?

increase the freguency of the wave


The higher the frequency of a sound wave the?

the frequency of a sound wave is higher if its wavelength is shorter


Which feature of a sound wave determines the pitch of the sound?

The frequency of a sound wave determines the pitch of the sound. Higher frequency waves are perceived as higher pitch sounds, while lower frequency waves are perceived as lower pitch sounds.


The frequency of its sound wave determines its what?

The sensation of a frequencies is commonly referred to as the pitch of a sound. A high pitch sound corresponds to a high frequency sound wave and a low pitch sound corresponds to a low frequency sound wave.


Does a sound's pitch depend on its loudness?

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