Characteristics of a Sound Wave:
A sound wave is described by the following characteristics:
i. Frequency: The number of complete oscillations per second is called the frequency (ν) of the sound wave. The unit of frequency is hertz (Hz).
ii. Amplitude: The magnitude of maximum disturbance in the medium on either side of the mean position is called the amplitude (A). The amplitude of a wave is the same as the amplitude of the vibrating body producing the wave. The loudness or softness of a sound is determined basically by its amplitude which depends upon the force with which an object is made to vibrate.
iii. Speed: The distance travelled by a wave in one second is called the velocity or speed of the wave.
