Sound Waves

Vibrations that travel through the air or another medium and can be heard when they reach a person's or animal's ear.

Amplitude

The extent or range of a vibratory movement, measured from the position of equilibrium, commonly used to describe the magnitude of sound waves or other oscillations.

Frequency

The number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit of time, often used in the context of waves (such as sound or light) to indicate cycles per second (Hz).
