Question
________________ of a sound depends on the amplitude of a wave.
Open in App
Solution
The loudness of a sound refers to the intensity of the vibrating source which is producing the sound.
Since the intensity of the sound depends upon the amplitude, thus, loudness will also be dependent upon amplitude.
This implies that the sound of higher amplitude will be heard louder.
Final Answer-
Loudness of a sound depends on the amplitude of a wave.
