I want to learn more about sound. Explain to me how sound travels, talk about why there is sound we can't hear, and also talk about pitch. Explain each topic in two or three sentences.

Sound is created when an object vibrates, causing air molecules to move and bump into each other, which causes vibrations. This chain reaction of bumping molecules is what we call a sound wave.

If the vibrations are moving at a certain speed, you can hear it, but you cannot hear the sound of something slow such as your hand passing slowly through the air. The slowest vibration you can hear is 20 vibrations per second which is a low pitch sound, and the fastest you can hear is 20,000 vibrations per second which is a high pitch sound. The number of vibrations per second is what we call the object's frequency which is measured in Hertz.

The pitch of a sound depends on the vibrating object's weight. The more mass, the slower it vibrates, which means a lower pitch, and the less mass, the faster it vibrates, which means a higher pitch. Yet an adjustment of the object's mass, such as filling it with water, or an adjustment of the object's tension, such as tightening the string of a musical instrument, can change the pitch.
