The frequency of a drum depends on the size and tightness of the skin and the volume of the resonating chamber. So, a smaller skin, a tighter skin and a smaller volume will each contribute to a higher pitched drum.
The reasons for this have to do with
(a)the speed of sound waves across the skin, which rises when the skin is tighter,
(b) the speed of sound in air inside the drum which means higher resonances will happen when the drum walls are closer together and
(c) the distance from the point you strike the skin and the edge of the skin, which means reflections from the edge happen sooner on small skins.

What drum can begin to vibrate at its natural frequency without being struck through?
A drum can begin to vibrate at its natural frequency without being struck through a phenomenon called resonance. Resonance occurs when a drum is exposed to external vibrations that match its natural frequency, causing it to vibrate and produce sound without direct contact.
How can frequency and pitch be changed?
Frequency is directly related to pitch - higher frequency corresponds to higher pitch and lower frequency corresponds to lower pitch. To change frequency and pitch, you can adjust the length, tension, or thickness of a vibrating medium such as a string or column of air. This can be done by changing the position of frets on a string instrument, adjusting the length of a wind instrument, or changing the tension on a drum skin.
What are some examples of high frequency and low frequency sounds?
High frequency sounds include a whistle, a bird chirping, or a ringing phone. Low frequency sounds include thunder, a bass guitar, or a large drum.
What would be an observable change in sound when the frequency changes?
An observable change in sound when the frequency changes is a difference in pitch. As the frequency increases, the pitch becomes higher, and as the frequency decreases, the pitch becomes lower. This change in pitch is due to the direct relationship between frequency and pitch in sound waves.
What must change in order for the pitch of a sound change?
The frequency of the sound wave must change in order to change the pitch of a sound. A higher frequency results in a higher pitch, while a lower frequency results in a lower pitch.
Why do windows shake when you beat a drum?
This is probably due to the frequency that the drum emits after being hit. That frequency is probably similar to your window so it oscillates while its resonance is increased by the loud drum.
What drum can begin to vibrate at its natural frequency without being struck through?
A drum can begin to vibrate at its natural frequency without being struck through a phenomenon called resonance. Resonance occurs when a drum is exposed to external vibrations that match its natural frequency, causing it to vibrate and produce sound without direct contact.
What do drums have to do with physics?
The vibrations (sound) of a beaten drum are sound waves. The frequency, of the produced sound waves, is what determines the pitch of the drum.
Is a teakettle whistle have greater frequency than a drum beat?
false because it does

What is frequency sensitivity?
the amount of frequency change in the carrier frequency per unit amplitude change in the message signal is the frequency sensitivity this term comes in the frequency moulation
How does area affect a drum pitch?
The area in which you drum will not change the pitch but change the way in which you hear the drum. The sound may last longer or less, it may be loud or quiet.
What are some examples of high frequency and low frequency sounds?
High frequency sounds include a whistle, a bird chirping, or a ringing phone. Low frequency sounds include thunder, a bass guitar, or a large drum.
Can the pich of a drum be change?
yes!
The change in allele frequency?
Random change in allele frequency is called genetic drift.
How do you change the timbre of a drum?
there is a lever. pull or push to change it
