As the water molecules from the ocean move in different ways, you can hear the various vibrations of soundwaves emitting from the friction of the molecules against themselves and the sand/rock/etc.

What noise does a wave make?

A wave itself doesn't make a noise; rather, it is the movement of energy through a medium, such as air or water. When a wave propagates, it can create sound if it causes vibrations in the surrounding material. For example, ocean waves crashing on the shore produce a rhythmic sound, while sound waves traveling through air can be perceived as music or speech. Essentially, the noise associated with a wave is the result of the energy it transfers to the medium, leading to vibrations that our ears interpret as sound.


What sound does a longitudinal wave make?

It depends on the wavelength and frequency of the wave.


How does a change in the amplitude of a wave affect the sound produced?

Increasing the amplitude of a wave will make the sound louder, while decreasing it will make the sound quieter. Amplitude affects the volume of the sound but not its pitch.

What difference in a note does the amplitude of its sound wave make?

The amplitude of a sound wave determines the volume or loudness of the note. A higher amplitude wave produces a louder sound, while a lower amplitude wave produces a quieter sound.
