Question

On an oscilloscope, does a wave with a larger amplitude (greater crests and troughs) indicate louder sound or higher pitch?

Answer 1

This would be louder sound. Higher pitch would be represented by a more compressed wave that oscillates more times over a shorter period. Higher amplitude represents higher sound because the wave oscillates at the same speed, yet higher.

Hope this helped, and have a nice day!

Answer 2

An oscilloscope, with a larger amplitude, would indicate a higher pitch, Because  the wave oscillates at the same speed but at a higher amplitude

What is Waves amplitude?

A wave's amplitude is simply the highest displacement by a point on a vibrating body, in relation to its equilibrium point.

In conclusion,  the wave oscillates at the same speed but at a higher amplitude, it produces more sound.
