Why would a drummer hit the drum near the edge to make the sound of the drum give a note of the lower pitch?

Normally hitting the drum closer to the edge would make the note lower, it can make it quieter. Sometimes a drum can have a "sweet spot" as it is called this is where when struck gives the best tone.

The small size gives it the high pitch that it has, if it was bigger, the sound would be dropping lower and lower. Also the small size made it easy to carry around and transport.

It kind of depends on the saxophone. Maybe an alto or baritone saxophone would be about the same pitch or lower. A tenor saxophone definitely would sound lower.

A police car chasing you would be at a constant distance from you. If it was moving away, the siren sound would get lower and lower, instead of remaining at the same pitch.

I think the pitch would be lower because the sound is really low when it is empty.
Does the pitch of the sound depend on the amplitude?
The pitch of a sound is the frequency, how many oscillations happen per second.In the case of a musical instrument, there may be many frequencies that happen all together. The pitch, is the fundamental frequency, the one that stands out among many.Amplitude is effectively the volume, how loud a note is. It is, by how much the air is moved, as opposed to how often.

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
