Loudness of sound is measured in units of$(a)$. decibel $(dB)$$(b)$. hertz $(Hz)$$(c)$. metre $(m)$$(d)$. metre/second$(m/s)$
Pitch of sound is determined by its$(a)$. frequency $(b)$. speed$(c)$. amplitude $(d)$. loudness
Order to reduce the loudness of a sound, we have to$(a)$. decrease its frequency of vibration of the sound$(b)$. increase its frequency of vibration of the sound$(c)$. decrease its amplitude of vibration of the sound$(d)$. increase its amplitude of vibration of the sound
The loudness of sound is determined by its$(a)$. amplitude of vibration$(b)$. ratio of amplitude and frequency of vibration$(c)$. frequency of vibration$(d)$. product of amplitude and frequency of vibration
The loudness of sound depends on$(a)$. its amplitude$(b)$. its time period$(c)$. its frequency$(d)$. its speed
Name the characteristic of sound which depends on (a) amplitude (b) frequency, and (c) waveform.
When we change a feeble sound to a loud sound, we increase its:(a) frequency (b) amplitude (c) velocity (d) wavelength
Loud sound can travel a larger distance, due toa. Higher amplitude b. Higher energy c. High frequency d. High speed
Before playing the orchestra in a musical concert, a sitarist tries to adjust the tension and pluck the string suitably. By doing so, he is adjusting$(a)$. intensity of sound only$(b)$. amplitude of sound only$(c)$. frequency of the sitar string with the frequency of other musical instruments$(d)$. loudness of sound
Before playing the orchestra in a musical concert, a sitarist tries to adjust the tension and pluck the strings suitably. By doing so he is adjusting:(a) the intensity of sound only(b) the amplitude of sound only(c) frequency of the sitar string with the frequency of other musical instruments(d) loudness of sound
What happens to the loudness of a sound if its amplitude decreases?
Which of the following is the best absorber of sound? a) Wood b) Thermocole indoor c) Iron d) Cardboard
Fill in the following blanks with suitable words:(a) An echo is simply a ............. sound.(b) Pitch of sound depends on ................(c) Loudness of sound depends on .............(d) Quality of sound depends on ................(e) Echoes are caused by the ............. of sound.
Fill in the blanks : The Greater the amplitude of the vibration, the _____ is the distance a sound will travel before dying out
Which kind of sound is produced in an earthquake before the main shock wave begins?(a) ultrasound (b) infrasound (c) audible sound (d) none of the above
