उत्तर

  1. Loudness ∝ (amplitude)2
    Loudness is proportional to amplitude square Ratio of loudness = `"L"_1/"L"_2 =((a_1)^2)/((a_2)^2)`
    = `(1)^2/(3)^2 = 1\/9`
    = 1: 9
  2. Frequency of the sound wave has no effect on amplitude.
    so, frequency remains the same if the pitch is unchanged.
    ∴ `"Pitch of first wave"/"Pitch of second wave"`=`1/1`
    = 1 :1
