Loudness refers to the intensity or volume of a sound, while pitch refers to the frequency of the sound waves. A loud sound has higher amplitude and is perceived as stronger, whereas pitch is determined by the frequency of sound waves and how high or low they are. In summary, loudness is about the strength of a sound, while pitch is about its frequency.

What factor determines the pitch o a sound?

The pitch of a sound is determined by its frequency. A higher frequency corresponds to a higher pitch, while a lower frequency corresponds to a lower pitch.


What is the apparent change in the freqency of a sound caused by the motion of either the listener o the source of sound?

The apparent change in frequency of a sound caused by the motion of either the listener or the source of sound is known as the Doppler effect. If the source is moving towards the listener, the frequency appears higher (higher pitch), and if the source is moving away, the frequency appears lower (lower pitch).


What is the relationship between frequency amplitude and pitch?

Wavelength = (speed of sound) divided by (frequency) Frequency = (speed of sound) divided by (wavelength) Amplitude is not related to frequency or wavelength. A change of amplitude does not cause ... and does not result from ... a change of frequency or wavelength


What sound is produced when the shock wave formed at the nose of an artifact traveling at supersonic speeds reaches the ground?

The sound of a sonic boom is the engine noise and vibration of the aircraft, only greatly amplified. Sound is a reverberating pressure wave that travels through air at a constant rate. Sound waves move away from the plane in all directions as it travels, but at the speed of sound these pressure waves at the nose can't get clear of the plane and so begin to 'stack' together, resulting in a much stronger wave and an extremely loud noise. O> = the plane ( ( ) ) = sound waves at rest: ( ( ( ( O> ) ) ) ) Subsonic flight: Sound in front is a higher frequency ( ( ( O> ) ) ) ) ) ) Sonic boom: Sounds can no longer escape directly in front ( ( ( O>) Supersonic flight: Plane is outrunning its own sound () ) ) )() ) ) )() ) ) )( O>


Does piano have a long or short vowel sound?

The word "piano" has a long vowel sound. In this case, the letter "i" is pronounced as a long "ee" sound, as in the word "bee." This is because the letter "i" is followed by a single vowel at the end of the word, which typically results in a long vowel sound.
