3 11mbre is the distinguishing quality of a sound. It is the dimension of auditory experience reÂ­. lated to the complexity of the sound wave-to the. relative breadth of the range of frequencies that. make up the wave. A pure tone consists of only one. frequency, but in nature, pure tones are extremely. rare.
The basic components of a sound wave are frequency, wavelength and amplitude. Frequency is the number of pressure waves that pass by a reference point per unit time and is measured in Hertz (Hz) or cycles per second.To the human ear, an increase in frequency is perceived as a higher pitched sound, while a decrease in frequency is perceived as a lower pitched sound.ore specifically, the wavelength of a sound equals the speed of sound in either air or water divided by the frequency of the wave. Therefore, a 20 Hz sound wave is 75 m long in the water (1500/20 = 75) whereas a 20 Hz sound wave in air is only 17 m long (340/20 = 17) in air.
