The loudness and the pitch of a sound depends on

A

intensity and velocity

B

frequency and velocity

C

intensity and frequency

D

frequency and number of harmonics.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Loudness is associated with the intensity of sound which is measured by energy of sound waves crossing per unit times through a unit area at right angles to the direction of waves. Pitch of a note depends upon the frequency of vibration of the source.
