Stretching a sound wave makes the pitch louder softer lower higher @dtuniyants

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it is lower. But maybe higher. anyway not softer and not louder

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i read on wikipedia about it. Possibly higher or louder. which one do you think

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

isn't pitch same as frequency ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think so

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

loudness depends on amplitude of wave, not so much on frequency.. so i guess we can eliminate first option

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i agree with you. can it be higher

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

yes i guess so...

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

hey wait no, i think it should be lower

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

stretching the wave sortof increases the wave length and time period ? if so the frequency has to decrease hmm not so sure...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, I'll visit wikipedia. org to be sure

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

i found this http://cnx.org/resources/d7fc5f399240d0788e66b14be6181df3/phys1b.png

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

im inclining more toward `lower` ..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks @ganeshie8 . this one is more informational than o wikipedia

OpenStudy (anonymous):

finally the answer is "lower" @geny55

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

assuming the stretch was horizontal..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks guys
