Question

Which of the following has the lowest frequency and highest amplitude? 

hintHint:

Amplitude and frequency are the characteristics of sound

The correct answer is:


    • Amplitude is the maximum displacement of the particles of a sound wave from its equilibrium position.
    • The total number of waves produced in one second is called the frequency of the wave.
    • Therefore in the given waveforms, frequency is low in options a and c  But amplitude is high in option c.
