Question

Decreasing amplitude of a sound wave decreases the _______.

  1. Vibration
  2. Force
  3. Loudness
  4. Direction

hintHint:

Loudness of a sound depends on its amplitude.

The correct answer is: Loudness


    • Loudness of a sound depends on its amplitude.
    • Therefore, decreasing the amplitude of a sound decreases its loudness.
    • So, the correct option is c.
