Sound can be quieter if it travels a shorter distance, encounters more obstacles or barriers which absorb or dissipate the sound energy, or if the source of the sound is less powerful or further away from the listener. Additionally, using materials that absorb or dampen sound waves can also make the sound quieter.

What is the opposite of the word louder?
The opposite of the word "louder" is "quieter." "Louder" refers to a higher volume or sound level, while "quieter" refers to a lower volume or sound level.

A loudspeaker makes sounds by vibrating a cardboard cone what happens to the vibrations of the cone as the sound gets quieter?
As the sound gets quieter, the vibrations of the cardboard cone decrease in amplitude and frequency. This results in less movement of the cone, producing a softer sound.
Why does sound get quieter?
Because of air damping.
What is quieter low or high sone?
Low sone is quieter than high sone. Sone is a unit that measures the perceived loudness of a sound, so a lower sone rating corresponds to a quieter sound.
How can you make the souder louer and quieter on a piano?
To make the sound sound loud, press harder down on the key. To make it sound quieter (piano) press lighter down on the key.
What do you called when sound waves interfere together and result in quieter sound?
When sound waves interfere and result in quieter sound, it is known as destructive interference. This occurs when waves are out of phase and cancel each other out, reducing the overall amplitude of the sound.
What happens to sound waves as they move away from the source of the sound?
They get distant and more quieter
Is a sound quieter when a vibration is smaller?
No. If a vibration is smaller, the sound is higher pitched. To get a quieter sound the amplitude of the sound-wave needs to be smaller. +++ It depends whether you mean amplitude or wavelength being "smaller", and they are two different things. If the vibration's amplitude is smaller the sound is quieter irrespective of frequency. If the vibration is more rapid, the frequency is higher but the wavelength correspondingly smaller irrespective of amplitude.
What happen to the sound when the amplitude change?
It gets louder or quieter.
What is the opposite of the word louder?
The opposite of the word "louder" is "quieter." "Louder" refers to a higher volume or sound level, while "quieter" refers to a lower volume or sound level.
Why holding a triangle makes it sound quieter?
Since a triangle has a small opening not quite touching the other end it created the small pitched sound, by holding it with your hand it makes the small opening vibrate trough your fingers practically making a pathway to the other end thus making the sound duller.
What makes sound louder or quiet?
Sound is determined by the amount of energy the source produces. A louder sound is created by a source that produces more energy, while a quieter sound is produced by a source with less energy. The amplitude or intensity of the sound wave also plays a role in determining the volume of the sound.
What makes the sound louder on the stringed insruments?
almost all to do with the body. A ukulele is quieter than a guitar because it has less mass to vibrate, but material is also responsible.
