Our perception of pitch is based on frequency (how often the sound oscillates). The higher the frequency of the sound, the higher the pitch. A high-pitch sound has more vibrations per second (Hertz -Hz-) than a low-pitch sound.
The frequency. A high-pitched sound has a higher frequency than a low-pitched sound.

ā 15y agoWhat we consider a "high pitched frequency" is the upper end of our normal hearing range. The normal hearing range of human beings is roughly 10 hertz to 25,000 hertz. Sound is transmitted from point to point by series of compressions of air. The number of these compression packs in any given second is a hertz (also referred to as cycles per second).
Low frequencies (pitches) take more power to produce compared to higher frequencies.
An interesting phenomenon in humans is that as we age we lose the ability to sense the upper range of our hearing. There are now phone ring tones that only young people can hear, because us old folks have lost the ability to hear the sound.

ā 12y agoNo, it means high frequency sound. Loud sound would be called high intensity.

What is a description of sound as high or low?
The pitch of the sound.
Does a high pitch sound have a low frequency?
No. High pitch = high frequency = short wave
Pitch describes how high or low a sound is. The pitch of a sound is most dependent upon the of the sound wave.?
z n
When does a high pitch sound occur?
Whenever there's something vibrating, in the upper range of human hearing, there may be a high pitch sound.
Is pitch the quality of being a high or low sound?
The perceived pitch of a sound is just the ear's response to frequency of the sound wave.
What properties of sound determine the pitch of sound?
The pitch is determined by how high the sound is.
Does a triangle have a high pitch or a low pitch sound?
A triangle has high pitch.
Does a seal makes high pitch or low pitch sound?
High
A sound source of high frequency emits a high?
It emits a high pitch
What property describes how HIGH or LOW a sound seems to a person?
pitch
What is a description of sound as high or low?
The pitch of the sound.
What is difference in pitch and loudnes?
pitch - how high or low a sound is volume - how loud a sound is
Does a high pitch sound have a greater frequency than a low pitch sound?
Yes
Does a high pitch sound have a low frequency?
No. High pitch = high frequency = short wave
What is the pitch of the sound if it has a high frequency?
Really high
Pitch describes how high or low a sound is. The pitch of a sound is most dependent upon the of the sound wave.?
frequency
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".
