How do you calculate a 7.5 over 12 pitch into degrees?

This needs use of trigonometry. A pitch of 7.5/12 = 0.625 This means that the tangent of the angle is 0.625 Using trig tables or calculator, find the angle whose tangent is 0.625 The answer is 32 degrees


What does a micrometer caliper screw of pitch 0.5 mm mean?

It means that there is .5mm from a particular spot on one thread to the corresponding spot on the next thread


How many syllables does pitch have like to pitch a ball?

The word pitch has one syllable.


How do you determine pitch of roof?

The pitch of a roof is measure in a simple way. Rise over run. By this it means that, given the standard example of a 4/12 roof ,for every 12 inches or one foot of distance or run there is an according rise of 4 inches in height. If you wish to determine this you need to know the length of the rafters and then the height from the center of the rafter to the peak of the roof. For instance if the rafters happen to be 24 feet long that means that the run is 12 ft and if the height from the bottom of the rafter to the peak is 8 feet then you have a 8/12 pitch roof.

Which factor would lower the pitch of a string?

The tension of the string. Less tension = lower pitch. This can be achieved by loosening the string or lengthening the string.

What happens to the pitch of the sound when the tension of the vocal cords increases?

Within the normal range of hearing, the higher the frequency (number of vibrations per second) the higher the perceived pitch. Frequency is a physical characteristic and pitch is a psychological characteristic.


What has the greater energy sounds with the higher amplitude or sound wave with higher frequency?

Yes. And higher frequency means higher pitch. It is not pitch that produces loudness it only accentuates tone/ Loudness is controlled by volume of output.

Why does putting pressure on a string in a stringed instrument make a different sound?

"Pressure" is not what causes strings to produce sound. It's "tension" which does that. Adjusting the tuners either increases or decreases the tension, thus altering the audible pitch. Bending the strings also increases the tension. The sound is due to the vibration of the strings. Greater tension causes a shorter, higher frequency wavelength or amplitude which produces a higher pitch. Lesser tension causes a longer, lower frequency wavelength which produces a lower pitch. Depressing the strings onto the fingerboard effectively shortens the length of the string. The more a string is shortened, the shorter its vibrational wavelength and the higher its frequency will become. The location along the fingerboard at which the string is depressed serves the same function as does the nut when a open string is sounded.


What effect does tension have on pitch?

The tension effects how much the string is capable of vibrating. Different vibrations create different length sound waves so the sound will change at different tensions.


High pitch sound has a greater what?
