Why are some sounds higher pitch then others?

Sounds of different pitch are caused by differences in their frequency. Sounds with higher pitch have higher frequencies, meaning that the sound wave vibrates at a faster rate compared to lower-pitched sounds. The human ear perceives these vibrations as higher or lower pitch.


Is a monkeys sound high pitch or low pitch?

Monkeys' sounds can vary depending on the species and the situation. Some monkeys make high-pitched vocalizations, while others produce lower-pitched sounds. Typically, smaller monkeys such as tamarins and marmosets tend to have higher-pitched calls, while larger monkeys like howler monkeys have lower-pitched vocalizations.


Do metals make a high pitch sound when you hit them?

Anything you hit makes a vibration. Vibration=Sound. I guess it depends how hard you hit the object (in this case metal) you will be able to hear the sound. But yes, they do make a high pitched sound when you hit them (some so high pitched you will never be able to hear them).


Does a deeper sound have a greater wavelength?

A sound that is lower in pitch has a larger wavelength. Some animals such as Elephants and Whales use that sound to communicate with each other. The larger wavelength lets them communicate with animals miles away.


Explain how amplitude and pitch affect changes in waves?

In case of mechanical waves, ie waves propagating through material medium the amplitude of the waves decides the intensity of the waves as intensity is directly proportional to the square of its amplitude. Pitch is related to the frequency of the wave. As pitch increases then in one second more number of waves would cross a particular point in the medium. If velocity of the wave in the medium remains constant, the wavelength gets reduced as the pitch increases.

Why do some sounds have a low pitch while others have a high pitch?

Since our ears recognize any type of pitch as a vibration the more vibration the higher the pitch less vibration lower the pitch.

How do some sounds have a low pitch and others have a high pitch?

some pitches are lower than others because of the friction of your vocal cords rubbing together in different ways hope this helps you X)

Do high pitched sounds damage hearing?

it depends on how loud the pitch is some pitches are not harmful but they are so high we can hear them i think these type of sounds at a pitch very high are called infrared sound?


Why are cyberbullies hurting other kids?

Because they want to make themself feel higher, or better than others, and can only get that feelling by criticizing, and putting down others, yes i know it sounds lame, but for some weird people it's like that

How do dogs whistle sound to humans?

You will not always hear from me what you want to hear, but you will get the answer straight from the heart, remember "Mother nature knows best" animals are not our playthings and should be allowed to live as natural a life as possible. They are not a commodity, accoutrement or accessory to your life style. Not everybody's hearing is the same, some people hear slightly higher tone than others some lower, some have good pitch some have perfect pitch while others are deaf. Asking what a dog whistle sounds like to humans is like asking a person what chicken tastes like. There is only one way to find out purchase one get someone else to blow it and that is what it sounds like "To You". To take this a bit further ask someone else to blow it as well it may well be that two different people make two different sounds. But to generalise to me it sounds like blowing through a blade of grass, held between your thumbs. Barrie
