If you want to change the pitch of a sound, you have to change the ___

• frequency
• amplitude
• speed
• volume

A part in a longitudinal wave where the particles are spread apart

The part of a longitudinal wave where the particles of the medium are close together.

• rarefaction
• compression
• crest
• trough

The number of wavelengths that pass a point each second

Tags

NGSS.MS-PS4-1

A disturbance that travels through a medium as a longitudinal wave

• sound
• wavelength
• pitch
• frequency

Tags

NGSS.MS-PS4-1

travels through solids fastest because the molecules are closer together

• speed of sound
• wavelength
• frequency
• amplitude

Tags

NGSS.MS-PS4-2

How high or low a sound is; depends on the frequency

• pitch

• frequency

• sound

• medium

A wave in which the vibration is in the same direction as that in which the wave is traveling; sound waves

• longitudinal wave
• ocean wave
• transverse wave
• mechanical wave
