The LOUDNESS of a sound depends on the wave's:
AFrequency, with higher frequency giving louder sound
BSpeed, with faster waves being louder
CWavelength, with longer waves being louder
DAmplitude, with higher amplitude giving louder sound
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Amplitude, with higher amplitude giving louder sound
Loudness depends on the amplitude of the sound wave: higher amplitude = louder sound.
Pitch (not loudness) depends on frequency.
