What we consider a "high pitched frequency" is the upper end of our normal hearing range. The normal hearing range of human beings is roughly 10 hertz to 25,000 hertz. Sound is transmitted from point to point by series of compressions of air. The number of these compression packs in any given second is a hertz (also referred to as cycles per second).

Low frequencies (pitches) take more power to produce compared to higher frequencies.

An interesting phenomenon in humans is that as we age we lose the ability to sense the upper range of our hearing. There are now phone ring tones that only young people can hear, because us old folks have lost the ability to hear 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.


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.


Does a high pitch sound have a low frequency?

No. High pitch = high frequency = short wave


Is a high-frequency sound higher or lower in pitch?

A high-frequency sound is higher in pitch. Pitch is determined by the frequency of a sound wave, with higher frequencies corresponding to higher pitches.


A sound source of high frequency emits a high?

It emits a high pitch


Do low frequency sounds have a high pitch or a low pitch?

Low frequency = low pitch = long waves


Is lower pitch a low frequency or high frequency?

low


What if your answer If a sound has a high pitch then it has a frequency and therefore a wavelenght?

Yes, a sound with a high pitch has a high frequency, which means it has a shorter wavelength. The pitch of a sound is directly related to its frequency, with high-pitched sounds having higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths.


Explain high and low pitch frequency's?

The higher the frequency of the sound wave, the higher the pitch.


A high pitch always corresponds to?

high frequency
