Solution

The correct option is C Different, same
Answer is C.

Pitch is the highness or lowness of a sound. The pitch we hear depends on the frequency of the sound waves with the amplitude unchanged. The higher the frequency, the higher the pitch; the lower the frequency, the lower the pitch.
The speed of the sound varies based on the transmitting medium.
In this case, the sounds produced by the flute and trumpet are of the same pitch and environmental conditions.
Hence, the frequency and speed of two sound waves are the same.
