Amplitude

This in light refers to the amount of energy in an electromagnetic wave

and its meaning is the same here. Amplitude refers to the distance of the
maximum vertical displacement of the wave from its mean position.
Larger the amplitude, the higher the energy. In sound, amplitude refers to
the magnitude of compression and expansion experienced by the
medium the sound wave is traveling through. This amplitude is perceived
by our ears as loudness. High amplitude is equivalent to loud sounds.

Frequency/ Pitch of the Sound Waves

Frequency in a sound wave refers to the rate of the vibration of the sound
traveling through the air. This parameter decides whether a sound is
perceived as high pitched or low pitched. In sound, the frequency is also
known as Pitch. The frequency of the vibrating source of sound is
calculated in cycles per second.
The speed of sound in an ideal gas depends only on its temperature
and composition. The speed has a weak dependence on frequency
and pressure in ordinary air, deviating slightly from ideal behavior. In
common everyday speech,speed of sound refers to
the speed of sound waves in air.

The basic properties of sound are: pitch, loudness and tone. Figure
10.2: Pitch and loudness of sound.Sound B has a lower pitch (lower
frequency) thanSound A and is softer (smaller amplitude)
than SoundC. The frequency of a sound wave is what your ear
understands as pitch.

Loudness refers to how loud or soft a sound seems to a listener.

The loudness of sound is determined, in turn, by the intensity, or
amount of energy, in soundwaves. The unit of intensity is the decibel
(dB). As decibel levels get higher, sound waves have greater intensity
and sounds are louder.

he most common approach to sound intensity measurement is to use

the decibel scale: Decibels measure the ratio of a given intensity I to
the threshold of hearing intensity, so that this threshold takes the value
0 decibels (0 dB).
