Question
Two sounds of same loudness and same pitch produced by two different instruments differ in their:
Amplitudes
Frequencies
Waveforms
All of the above.
✓
Answer
Waveforms
Explanation: The waveform of a sound depends on the number of the subsidiary notes and their relative amplitude along with the principal note. The resultant vibration obtained by the superposition of all these vibrations gives the waveform of sound.
