Pitch is the perceptual quality of sound that is primarily determined by the frequency of the sound wave. Higher frequency sounds are perceived as having a higher pitch, while lower frequency sounds are perceived as having a lower pitch. As frequency increases, pitch also increases and vice versa. Wavelength is inversely related to frequency, meaning that as frequency increases, wavelength decreases and vice versa.
Its wavelength increases and its frequency decreases
Frequency and wavelength of the sound wave change when pitch gets higher. A higher pitch corresponds to a higher frequency and shorter wavelength in a sound wave.
If the wavelength gets shorter, you will hear a higher frequency sound. This change in frequency can lead to the perception of a higher pitch in the sound.
In sounds with higher pitches, the compressions that make up the sound are closer together; when the pitch is lower, they are farther apart. The wavelength of a sound, which is the distance from one compression to the next, is the speed of sound divided by the sound's frequency (pitch).
As wavelength shortens, frequency increases. This is because frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional to each other according to the formula f = c/λ, where f is frequency, c is the speed of light, and λ is wavelength. When wavelength decreases, frequency must increase to maintain the constant speed of light.

Every sound vibrates with a particular fundamental frequency. When you change the wavelength of a sound, you change the pitch of a sound.
If the wavelength gets shorter, you will hear a higher frequency sound. This change in frequency can lead to the perception of a higher pitch in the sound.
In sounds with higher pitches, the compressions that make up the sound are closer together; when the pitch is lower, they are farther apart. The wavelength of a sound, which is the distance from one compression to the next, is the speed of sound divided by the sound's frequency (pitch).
Pitch represents the perceived fundamental frequency of a sound. It is one of the three major auditory attributes of sounds along with loudness and timbre.
Pitch is frequency: the higher the pitch the higher the frequency, and vice-versa.
As wavelength shortens, frequency increases. This is because frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional to each other according to the formula f = c/λ, where f is frequency, c is the speed of light, and λ is wavelength. When wavelength decreases, frequency must increase to maintain the constant speed of light.
Kind of. The pitch of a sound wave is its frequency, and because frequency = 1 / wavelength its pitch is related to the wave length. So to answer, no, the pitch of sound is not the wavelength itself, rather it is the inverse of the wavelength ( 1/wavelength)falseACJM
Pitch is actually determined by the frequency of a sound wave, not its wavelength. Frequency refers to the number of oscillations per second, while wavelength is the distance between two peaks of a wave. Higher frequency sounds have a higher pitch, while lower frequency sounds have a lower pitch.
If you change sound's frequency and hold the velocity constant, the sound's wavelength also changes. If you change sound's frequency and keep the wavelength constant, then velocity also changes.
The note, the frequency or the wavelength.
