Question

Choose the correct option:

$$\begin{array}{cccc}1.& \text{Tone}& \text{i}.& \text{frequencies that are integral multiple of fundamental frequency.}\\ 2.& \text{Note}& \text{ii}.& \text{sound of single frequency.}\\ 3.& \text{Overtone}& \text{iii}.& \text{sound of multiple frequencies.}\\ 4.& \text{Harmonic}& \text{iv}& \text{higher frequencies other than fundamental frequency.}\end{array}$$

• A. 1 - ii, 2 - iii, 3 - iv, 4 - i.
• B. 1 - iii, 2 - ii, 3 - iv, 4 - i
• C. 1 - ii, 2 - iii, 3 - i, 4 - iv
• D. 1 - ii, 2 - iv, 3 - iii, 4 - i

Answer 1

The correct option is A

1 - ii, 2 - iii, 3 - iv, 4 - i.

Sound of a single frequency is known as tone.
Sound of multiple frequencies is known as a note.
Tones of higher frequencies other than fundamental frequency are known as overtones.
The frequencies that are an integral multiple of the fundamental frequency are called as harmonics.
