  1. Quality of sound differentiates one sound from the other sound with the same pitch and same loudness but using different instrument is known as quality of sound.
  2. Quality of sound depends on number of overtones and relative density.
  3. Piano and flute both are made of different materials and shapes due to this, they have different lengths so they produce different frequencies.
  4. Piano produces musical notes and a flute produces pure notes.
