Sound waves are different than light waves. Properties of sound waves are
1. It is a longitudinal wave
2. It requires Material medium for propogation of energy.
3. Speed of sound depends on the medium and temperature
4. Sound waves best travel in sound
5. Their speed varies from 330 m/s in air at 0 degree centigrade. where as 6000 m/s in steel.
It also undergoes reflection , interferance . They are measured in decibals.

What property of sound waves is related to the amplitude of the waves?
Loudness.
How is noise related with pitch?
Pitch refers to a sound with specific tones. The pitch of a sound is determined by the spaces between the sound waves. A sound is considered by noise by determining the level of loudness of the sound.
Describe something that can affect the pitch of sound?
The pitch of sound depends on the sound's frequency. Frequency is basically the amount of waves the sound is producing. If there are many waves, "happen frequently", it is a high frequency. This is a high pitch. If the distance between the waves is large, it is a low frequency and a low pitch.
What property of the sound waves changed to produce the louder volume?
Well, the sound waves get bigger due to increase in volume, but the pitch does not changes, the waves themselves in real life get louder and therefore harder to absorb
What property of waves do bats rely on?

How are frequency and pitch related?
Well, the higher the frequency is the higher the pitch. They both travel with sound waves and they both have a big role in how sound travels.
What property of the sound waves changed to produce the louder volume?
Well, the sound waves get bigger due to increase in volume, but the pitch does not changes, the waves themselves in real life get louder and therefore harder to absorb
What is the property of waves responsible for pitch?
I think it might be frequency... Not exactly sure. :)
What property of waves do bats rely on?
sound waves
Are loudness and pitch properties of sound or property of waves?
Loudness and pitch are properties of sound which can be determined by looking at the sound wave. You have a high pitch when the frequency of the wave increases or the wavelenght (lambda) decreases. When the amplitude increases the loudness of the wave increases as well.
Is pitch made up of sound waves?
Pitch is another name for the frequency of sound waves . . . that is, how close the waves are together. Pitch is a term usually used in terms of music.
This depends on the frequency of the sound waves?
it is the pitch
What is frequency applied to sound waves?
It sound of pitch
How are sound waves and light waves related?
They are both waves...
