Pitch is the perceived frequency of sound. this may differ from the actual, measurable frequency of the sound because of overtones and harmonics, which when taken together the auditory part of the brain may perceive slightly differently.

∙ 14y agoThe pitch of your voice is determined by the length and thickness of your vocal chords. Men have deeper voices than women because their vocal chords are longer and thicker. Children have the highest pitched voices of all because their vocal chords are short and thin. The vocal chords are contained in the larynx, or voice box. You can see this by looking at stringed instruments; a cello has a deeper sound than a violin because it is larger, with longer strings, and the strings on a cello are thicker than those on a violin. Even on the same instrument, the strings become thicker as the sound deepens.

∙ 8y agoPitch is determined by sound wave frequency; how fast something is vibrating. High-pitched sounds are higher frequency meaning they are vibrating faster. Low pitch means they are vibrating slower.

What factor determines the pith of a sound?
vibration
What is the pitch of a music note?
The pitch is the frequency of the sound waves and determines how high or low the note is.
Which is not a factor in the pitch of a human sound?
The size of the lungs
What properties of sound determine the pitch of sound?
The pitch is determined by how high the sound is.
The frequency of a musical note determines?
..its pitch.
What property of sound determines the pitch of a sound?
It is the frequency of a sound that determines its pitch. The higher the frequency, the higher the pitch.
The frequency of a sound wave determines?
the pitch of the sound.
Which characteristic of sound is associated with frequency?
We perceive the loudness of a sound wave as a consequence of its amplitude. The frequency of a sound wave determines the pitch we perceive.
What factor determines the pith of a sound?
vibration
Which feature of a sound wave determines the pitch of the sound?
That's the wave's frequency.
The frequency of a sound wave determines what?
The rate at which the sound source is vibrating :) --> novanet answer
What is the pitch of a music note?
The pitch is the frequency of the sound waves and determines how high or low the note is.
What determines the highness or lowness of a sound?
Its wavelength, or pitch. Sound is only vibrations in the air. If the wavelength of the vibration is low, then it will sound "high". If the vibration has a high wavelength, then it will sound "low".
Are higher freqeuncy sound waves louder?
No. They are higher pitched. Frequency determines pitch (the difference between the sound of a bass and a piccolo) but amplitude determines volume.
How is pitch related to music?
pitch is also known as frequency ,it is an factor which determines volume of media .if pitch increses the volume will be decresed.
What factor determines the loudness of a sound?
Frequency of the sound wave ?Amplitude of the sound wave ?The temperature of the medium ?The density of the medium ?
What is is a measure of sound frequency that determines how high or low a pitch is?
it is measured in hertz
