because the vibration is so fast your ears hurt

low pitched sounds vibrate slowly and doesn't hurt

A high frequency sound will be heard as?

If the high frequency sound is within hearing range, you can hear it as a high-pitched sound. If it's out of the hearing range you can't hear it, of course.


Does a high pitch sound result from low frequency waves?

No, a high pitch sound is typically associated with high-frequency waves, while low pitch sounds usually result from low-frequency waves. The pitch of a sound is determined by the frequency of the sound wave, with higher frequencies corresponding to higher pitches.


Is high pitch close together spacing in sound waves?

High pitch sounds are typically associated with closely spaced sound waves. In general, high frequency sound waves have shorter wavelengths and closer wave crests, leading to a higher perceived pitch. Conversely, low pitch sounds have longer wavelengths and greater spacing between wave crests.


Do high frequency sound waves have a higher or lower pitch than low frequency sound wave?

Yes! All sound waves, regardless of pitch move at the same speed provided they are in the same medium. Differences in frequency cause the sound to be perceived as higher or lower. A high pitched sound has a higher frequency and shorter wavelength while low pitched sounds have lower frequencies and longer wavelengths


What is another term for the frequency of a sound wave?

Another term for the frequency of a sound wave is pitch. Pitch refers to how high or low a sound is perceived to be by the human ear, and it is directly related to the frequency of the sound wave.

Does a sound with greater frequency has a higher pitch?

Yes, typically sound with higher frequency is perceived as having a higher pitch. The frequency of a sound wave determines how high or low the pitch is.


A high-pitched sound has a greater?

A high-pitched sound has a greater frequency, meaning it oscillates more rapidly than a low-pitched sound. This frequency is perceived by our ears as a higher pitch.


What is a description of sound as high or low?

High pitch sound waves have greater frequency and shorter wavelength, while low pitch sound waves have lower frequency and longer wavelength. These differences are perceived by our ears as the pitch of the sound.


Does high frequency correspond to high pitch?

Yes, high frequency corresponds to high pitch.


Is high frequency sounds low pitch?

No, high pitch means high frequency.


Do dogs hear high pitch noises?

Yes if a dog hears a high pitched noise it will go crazy try this out with a whistle and it is because of the frequency.


Does A high-pitched sound result from low frequency waves?

high pitch is high frequency, low pitch is low frequency


Does a high pitch sound result from low frequency waves?

No, a high pitch sound is typically associated with high-frequency waves, while low pitch sounds usually result from low-frequency waves. The pitch of a sound is determined by the frequency of the sound wave, with higher frequencies corresponding to higher pitches.


Why does high frequency have a higher pitch?

High frequency sound waves have more cycles per second, which our ears perceive as a higher pitch. The faster rate of vibration stimulates sensory cells in the inner ear at a greater frequency, resulting in a perception of a higher pitched sound.
