Answer:

Loudness: decreases

Amplitude: decreases

Pitch: stays the same

Frequency: stays the same

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

An oscilloscope measures how much the microphone is vibrating, or how much electricity it is sending. This means that a louder noise will register higher on the oscilloscope. Since the size of the waves at Y is lower than at X, the loudness of the sound has decreased.

2.

Similarly to loudness, amplitude measures how far the crests of the waves are from the nodes. Since Y is closer to the center line than X, it has a lower amplitude.

3 and 4.

The pitch and frequency, for our purposes, are essentially the same thing here. They are dependent on how close together the waves on the oscilloscope are, or how quickly the microphone is vibrated. Since this stays the same throughout the entire sound, they both stay the same.

Hope this helps!
