4 Questions
Explain the concept of frequency of oscillation and how it is measured.
The frequency of oscillation refers to the number of oscillations per second and is measured in hertz (Hz). For example, if an object oscillates 20 times in one second, its frequency would be 20 Hz.
How is it possible to recognize familiar sounds without seeing the objects producing them?
It is possible to recognize familiar sounds without seeing the objects producing them because these sounds have different properties, such as amplitude and frequency, which enable us to distinguish and recognize them.
What are the two important properties of any sound mentioned in the text?
The two important properties of any sound mentioned in the text are amplitude and frequency.
What is the symbol for expressing frequency, and what does 1 Hz represent?
The symbol for expressing frequency is Hz, and 1 Hz represents one oscillation per second.
