The answer would be C.
The pitch of a sound you hear depends on the frequency of the sound wave. A high frequency sound wave has a high pitch and a low frequency sound wave would have a low pitch.

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pitch is that quality of sound that helps ud knoe the difference between a high sound and low sound .

Frequency is the number of cycles or oscillations completed per second.

The pitch of sound is directly proportional to the frequency of the sound.

f is proportional to
√(tension) . As the tension is increased the frequency increases . when the tension is decreased the frequency decreases likewise and hence the pitch will also drop
