GCSE Physics

Sound Answer 2

You said "B is quieter, and has a higher frequency than A".
Here are the waves again:

Sound A
Sound B

You were spot on - well done!

Sound B is quieter than A, as its waves have less energy (their amplitude is less).

Also, sound B has a higher frequency (there are more waves in a given time) meaning that B has a higher pitch.
