Compare: A wave’s frequency is the number of waves that pass a point in a given time. Frequency is measured in hertz (Hz), or waves per second. Sounds A and B currently have the same frequency. How do you think Sound B’s sine wave will compare to Sound A’s?

Answer:

The sine waves of the two waves should look the same.

Explanation:

The sine wave formula for a sound wave is given as

y = A sin[2πft + θ]

where

y = The displacement of the wave at time t.

A = amplitude or maximum displacement of the wave during its progression.

t = time

f = frequency of the wave

θ = phase angle/phase shift of the wave which is normally 0 for sound waves

From this information,

It is evident that it is the frequency and time that dictate the exact motion of the wave or behaviour of the waveform. The amplitude only dictates the extent of the wave.

And if the frequency of 2 waves A and B are similar, then even a very different Amplitude cannot change the fact that the two waves will behave similarly, have the same sine curve and have the same movements as the time of progression increases.

Even if the phase angle isn't zero, whatever it is, will not change the fact that the two waves will appear similar to each other, only separated by that phase angle.

Hence, the two waves will look very similar with only the amplitude that shows the extent of displacement, different.

Hope this Helps!!!

Answer:

They will look exactly the same.

Explanation:

If two wave forms have the same frequency, they will have the same sine wave curve. A sine wave curve is a mathematical curve that describes a smooth periodic oscillation or a travelling wave.

The frequency of the wave determines the waveform. Since they have the same frequency, they will have the same shape of a smooth sine wave curve.
