Question

What happens to the pitch when the frequency of a sound wave decrease?

A it stays the same


B it decreases by that same amount


C it increases twice the amount


D it increases by the same amount

Answer 1

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Pitch is determined by frequency. So if frequency increases, pitch increases and produces a higher sound. If frequency decreases, pitch decreases and produces a lower sound. Frequency and wavelength are inversely related, meaning that if frequency increases, wavelength becomes shorter and vice versa
