Identify and define characteristics of both visible and sound waves. these include but are not limited to frequency, pitch, amplitude, volume, and wavelength

Answer and explanation;Sound waves are mechanical waves and are examples of the longitudinal type, a longitudinal wave involves the movement of molecules in the medium parallel to the direction of the wave.Sound waves are longitudinal mechanical waves because they move particles parallel to their direction of travel. For example, if a sound wave travels from left to right. Pitch is what we perceive as the low or high note quality of a sound. Pitch is determined by the frequency of the sound wave that moved through the air to our eardrums. Frequency is the time taken for a complete oscillation of a wave. The more energy or work used to create the vibration, which in turn creates the sound wave, the greater the amplitude of the wave and the louder the sound. Wavelength is the distance between two successive rarefactions or compression in a longitudinal wave.For example, if you were to lightly hit a drum with a drum stick, there would be a softer sound as opposed to the loud boom that would be created if you hit the drum with all of your might
