How do we perceive the amplitude of a sound wave?

Answered by admin @ 02/08/2021

Answer:

The amplitude of a sound wave determines its loudness or volume. A larger amplitude means a louder sound, and a smaller amplitude means a softer sound. ... The loudness of a sound is also determined by the sensitivity of the ear. The human ear is more sensitive to some frequencies than to others.

The amplitude of a sound wave is closely related to
