Question

Name and define the characteristic which enables one to distinguish two sounds of same loudness, but of different frequencies, given by the same instrument.

Answer 1

Sounds of different frequencies but of same loudness and timbre can be distinguished by the property called 'pitch' of sound.

The sensation of a frequency is commonly referred to as the pitch of a sound. A high pitch sound corresponds to a high-frequency sound wave and a low pitch sound corresponds to a low-frequency sound wave.
