In reality, the amplitude varies with distance traveled due to the loss of energy. However, phase/frequency of the sound waves do not change. It only depends on the source, nothing else.
+++
Not quite loss of energy, but spreading of energy by area as each wave-front occupies an expanding spherical surface.
'
The attenuation therefore is according to the square of the distance. Double the distance and you quarter the amplitude; at four times distance the sound is one-sixteenth its source level. The energy is still there but spread more thinly. In deciBel terms the drop is 3dB per doubling of distance.

There are actual losses by conversion to heat, but these are more complex, such as absorbtion by the medium through which the sound is travelling.
What else can I help you with?
What would happen with the sound If a wave length increase?
If the wavelength of a sound wave increases, the frequency of the wave decreases. This means that the pitch of the sound would decrease. Essentially, the sound wave becomes stretched out, resulting in a lower pitched sound.
If the frequency of a sound wave is multiplied by ten what happens to the wave length?
If the frequency of a sound wave is multiplied by ten, the wavelength will decrease by a factor of ten. This is because the speed of sound in a given medium remains constant, so when frequency increases, wavelength decreases proportionally to maintain the speed of sound.
What is the relationship between length and wave frequency?
Frequency is inversely proportional to the wave length, thus saying the shorter the wave length the higher the frequency and vice versa.The frequency is the number of waves within a time period. As the frequency within that time period increases, the number of waves increases, therefore the width of each wave (wavelength) within that time period has to decrease. Therefore:As the wave length increases, the frequency decreasesAs the wave length decreases, the frequency increases
What is the distance from crest to crest in a sound wave called?
The distance from crest to crest in a sound wave is called the wavelength. It represents the physical length of one cycle of the wave and is directly related to the frequency of the sound wave.
What is the relationship between vibration and the frequency of a sound wave?
The relationship between vibration and the frequency of a sound wave is that the frequency of a sound wave is directly related to the rate of vibration of the sound source. In other words, the higher the frequency of a sound wave, the faster the source of the sound is vibrating.
The high the frequency of a sound wave means?
the shorter the wave-length
Sounds can vary in volume and what?
Sound waves can vary in amplitude (volume), fequency (pitch), and wave length. Wave length is a resulting factor of frequency as the speed is usually constant. approx 350m/s. Speed = wavelength x frequency (speed = distance / time, frequency = 1/time)
What are characteristics of sound energy?
The main characteristics of sound are frequency, amplitude and wave length
How does the frequency and wave length of the sound waves be produce and changed with a guitar?
because it makes sound
What are some characteristic of sound energy?
The main characteristics of sound are frequency, amplitude and wave length
What is the equation used to find the speed of sound?
Speed = Frequency * Wave length.
Is wave a long a sound?
There is no set length on any sound wave. Sound waves vary hugely in thelength that they can be.The length of any sound wave is (the speed of sound in the current medium)/(the frequency of the sound) In air at sea level, the wavelengths in the audible range of frequencies rangefrom 1.72 centimeters (at 20 KHz) to 17.2 meters (at 20 Hz) ... a ratio of 1,000.
If a sound gets louder does the wavelength of the sound it produces increase?
No, the wavelength of a sound does not change when the intensity or loudness of the sound increases. The wavelength of a sound wave depends on the frequency of the sound, which is determined by the source of the sound.
What is a radio wave's relative wavelength and frequency is?
The wave length and frequency of course vary, the frequency ranges from 3kHz to 300 GHz. The wavelengths are longer than infrared.
Which relation is there between wavelength and height?
There is no relation between wave length and wave height. You can change the wave height independently from the wave length. Wave height tells you which amplitude the wave has. If you think of sound that means how loud it is. The wave length tells you the pitch or the frequency of this sound, that means high or low sound. Long wavelength means bass sound and short wavelength means treble sound.
What is the relationship between a wave frequency and its wavelength?
velocity of a wave equals wave frequency times wave length.
What would happen with the sound If a wave length increase?
If the wavelength of a sound wave increases, the frequency of the wave decreases. This means that the pitch of the sound would decrease. Essentially, the sound wave becomes stretched out, resulting in a lower pitched sound.
