Solution
Pitch is the characteristic of a sound by which we can distinguish a shrill sound from a grave (hoarse) sound even though the two sounds have the same loudness.
the pitch of a sound depends upon the frequency of vibration.
The pitch of the sound produced by an object vibrating with a low frequency is low and the sound is described as grave or flat sound
The pitch of high frequency sound is high Thus, higher the frequency of the sound, higher is its pitch and vice-versa.
Hence, the pitch of a sound depend on its frequency.
