Yes, lower notes have longer wavelengths. In sound waves, frequency (pitch) and wavelength are inversely related - lower pitches have lower frequencies and longer wavelengths.

What is the difference from lower sound waves and higher sound waves?

Lower sound waves have lower frequencies and longer wavelengths, resulting in deeper tones. Higher sound waves have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths, producing higher-pitched sounds. This difference in frequency and wavelength affects how we perceive and interpret sound.


How does the length of a straw affect how high or low the note is?

How does the length of a straw affects the high and low note is?

The length of a straw affects the pitch of the sound it produces when blown. A shorter straw produces a higher pitch, while a longer straw produces a lower pitch due to the difference in the wavelength of the sound waves created. Shorter straws have shorter wavelengths, resulting in higher frequencies and higher notes, whereas longer straws have longer wavelengths, resulting in lower frequencies and lower notes.


What wave would have more enery one with a long wavelength or a short wavelength?

Both a wave with long wavelength and a wave with short wavelength can have a lot of energy, or little energy.Specifically in the case of electromagnetic waves, a short wavelength corresponds to high energy - but this is only the energy PER PHOTON. But note that each of such waves usually consists of a lot of photons.


What is the difference between red light and green light?

Red light has a longer wavelength and lower frequency compared to green light, which has a shorter wavelength and higher frequency. In terms of traffic signals, red light signals drivers to stop, while green light signals drivers to go.

Does the notes actually go lower in pitch when it is slowed down?

Yes - as the sound is slowed, the wavelength is stretched. As the pitch is dependent on the frequency of the wavelength, longer wavelength = lower note

How do you write wavelength in short?

By specifying the wavelength; mm, nm, etc. Note Latin symbols for many wavelengths. There is also a generic symbol for 'wavelength,' a lower-case lambda.

Assume that the auditorium warms up from 20.0 C to 25.0 C during the concert What would be the wavelength of the note A440 at 25.0 C?

The wavelength would be 0.786.


Do the long pipes on an organ make a higher note than the shorter ones?

The Longer tube is the Lower pitched note and the Smaller lengthed one is the Higher Pitched note. The same with any wind instrament.


What is the other note after eighth note?

If after means shorter length, then that would be a sixteenth note. Two sixteenth notes equal an eighth note.

Do waves with longer wavelengths have less energy than waves with shorter wavelengths?

A high energy light will have a shorter wavelength than a low energy light. If the wavelength goes down, then the frequency goes up. When calculating energy in the equation, E=hv, frequency (v) is the variable, not the wavelength. So in the equation, if you wanted a more energy (E), you would have the frequency be large. For the frequency to be big, then the wavelength has to be low.


How do frequency change the pitch of a sound?

Pitch represents the perceived fundamental frequency of a sound. It is one of the three major auditory attributes of sounds along with loudness and timbre.
