Two waves having sinusoidal waveforms have different wavelengths and different amplitude. They will be having

A

same pitch and different intensity

B

same quality and different intensity

C

different quality and different intensity

D

same quality and different pitch

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The pitch depends upon the frequency of the source. As the two waves have different amplitude therefore they must have different intensity. While quality depends on number of harmonic/overtone produced and their relative intensity. Assuming that their frequencies are the same.
