The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the following statements is NOT correct regarding sound, we will analyze each option step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze Option 1 **Statement:** More oscillation per second means higher time period. - **Understanding Frequency and Time Period:** - Frequency (f) is defined as the number of oscillations (or cycles) per second. - Time period (T) is the duration of one complete cycle of oscillation. - The relationship between frequency and time period is given by the formula: \[ T = \frac{1}{f} \] - **Conclusion for Option 1:** - If there are more oscillations per second (higher frequency), the time period must be lower, not higher. Therefore, this statement is incorrect. ### Step 2: Analyze Option 2 **Statement:** Greater amplitude means greater loudness. - **Understanding Amplitude and Loudness:** - Amplitude refers to the maximum displacement of particles in a wave from their rest position. - Loudness is directly related to the amplitude of the sound wave; greater amplitude results in greater loudness. - **Conclusion for Option 2:** - This statement is correct. ### Step 3: Analyze Option 3 **Statement:** Higher pitch means higher frequency of vibration. - **Understanding Pitch and Frequency:** - Pitch is the perceived frequency of a sound; higher pitch indicates a higher frequency. - **Conclusion for Option 3:** - This statement is correct. ### Step 4: Analyze Option 4 **Statement:** More the value of decibel, higher is the noise. - **Understanding Decibels and Noise:** - The decibel (dB) scale is a logarithmic scale used to measure sound intensity. - A higher decibel level indicates a higher intensity of sound, which corresponds to louder noise. - **Conclusion for Option 4:** - This statement is correct. ### Final Conclusion After analyzing all options, we find that: - **Option 1** is the only statement that is NOT correct. ### Answer: **The statement that is NOT correct is: "More oscillation per second means higher time period."** ---
