Without being able to see the sound waves, it is not possible to accurately describe their frequency and amplitude in comparison to each other. Frequency is how many times a sound wave completes a cycle in one second and is measured in hertz (Hz). Amplitude, on the other hand, refers to the maximum displacement of particles in a sound wave and is measured in decibels (dB).
To accurately compare the frequency and amplitude between two sound waves, it is necessary to have access to their graphical representations or numerical values.
Look at the following two sound waves. How would you describe their frequency and amplitude in comparison to one another? Make sure to explain both of the sound waves.
