    Sound Properties

    • The loudness of sound is measured in decibels (dB).
    • The pitch of a sound wave is determined by its frequency.
    • Sound waves are a type of mechanical wave responsible for the sensation of hearing.
    • The pitch of a sound wave is determined by its frequency, not amplitude or wavelength.
    • The speed of sound increases with an increase in temperature.
    • Sound waves are a type of mechanical wave that travels through a medium, allowing us to hear.
    • As temperature increases, the speed of sound also increases.
