The lower the frequency of vibration, the higher is the pitch.
Name the phenomenon that causes a loud sound when the stem of a vibrating tuning fork is kept pressed on the surface of a table.
The ratio of amplitude of two waves is 3:4. What is the ratio of their loudness?
A person is standing at the seashore. An observer on the ship which is anchored in between a vertical cliff and the person on the shore fires a gun. The person on the shore hears two sounds, 2 seconds and 3 seconds after seeing the smoke of the fired gun. If the speed of sound in the air is 320 ms-1 then calculate:
1) the distance between the observer on the ship and the person on the shore.
2) the distance between the cliff and the observer on the ship.

The distance from one compression to nearest rarefaction is called wavelength.
The safe limit of loudness of audible sound is
