Statement-1 : Description of sound as pressure wave is preferred over displacement wave
Statement-2 : Source sensors (ear or mike) detect pressure changes.

Sound wave pressure Equation and Displacement Equation

It is usually more convenient to describe a sound wave in terms of pressure wave as compared to displacement wave because – (1) Two waves of same intensity but different frequencies have different displacement amplitude but same pressure amplitude (2) The human ear responds to the change in pressure and not to the displacement wave. (3) The electronic detector (microphone) does respond to the change in pressure but not to the displacement. (4) None of the above

In a longitudinal wave, pressure variation and displacement variation are:

Statement 1 : Electromagnetic waves exert pressure called radiation pressure. Statement-2 : This is because they carry energy.

Statement-1: The quality of sound in independent of the listerner's distance from the source of sound Statement-2: The speed of sound in air is independent of the frequency of sound waves.
