The two notes of an octave sound exactly the same due to the simple relationship of their frequencies?
The frequency of one note is double the frequency of the other one. (But the octave sounds a lot sweeter if one of them is 1/3 to 1/2 Hz away from the real 2:1 number.)
Does a note with a frequency of 440 vibration per sec sounds at a higher pitch than a note at 220 vibration per sec?
Yes. Both frequencies are actually A (La) but an octave apart. The mentioned 440Hz will be the A4 (5th A on a 88 key piano) while the fourth A on the piano sounds at 220Hz.
What is the difference between a low note and a high note?
high note has high frequency (cycles per second) . Low note has low frequency. The sound originated by a high frequency note oscillates more times per second, while a low frequency note oscillates less times per second.
What dose the frequency of a sound wave determine?
The frequency of a sound wave will determine the pitch (or note).
What does the extent to which a note can be heard determine?
frequency and pitch
How much would the amount be of a note if it has twice the frequency of another note?
In theory,if the frequency is exactly doubled, the note will be exactly one octave higher.
How does the frequency of a note change when it is three octaves higher?
It doubles three times. Every time you go up an octave, the frequency doubles.
What frequency is a C note of the third octave?
The frequency of a C of the fourth octave is approximately 261.626 Hz.
What difference would be heard if the frequency of the wave is increased?
the frequency of a wave changes the pitch of the of the sound, a lower frequency (less frequent vibrations of the speaker) means lower pitch (bass notes) a higher frequency increases the pitch (treble notes) the formula is: speed = frequency x wavelength note: if you double the frequency of a sound you half the wavelength (assuming the medium through which the sound travels is constant, thus the speed of the sound is constant) doubling the frequency also increases the pitch by one octave... the note "Middle C" is 440 Hz "C" one octave higher is 880 Hz and "C" one octave lower is 220 Hz all of the "C" notes in the musical scale are "C" below human hearing range 13.75 Hz Lowest "C" 27.5 Hz (Just within average human hearing range) "C" One Octave Higher 55 Hz "C" One more Octave Higher 110 Hz "C" One more Octave Higher 220 Hz "C" One more Octave Higher 440 Hz also known as "Middle C" "C" One more Octave Higher 880 Hz "C" One more Octave Higher 1760 Hz "C" One more Octave Higher 3520 Hz "C" One more Octave Higher 14080 Hz (The Highest "C" Note the average human can hear) "C" One more Octave Higher 28160 Hz (outside of human hearing range but it really annoys dogs)
Is a note with a frequency of 262 hz lower than a note with a frequency of 880 hz?
That is correct. 262 Hz is the frequency of the note "middle C" on a piano keyboard, while 880 Hz is the frequency of the note A one octave above the note A above middle C on a piano keyboard.
Two notes form an octave how are there frequencies related?
Any note sounds similar to the note an octave above it- to understand this you have to know that each musical note can be represented by a frequency in Herz (Hz). This tells you how many times a string would vibrate per second if you were to tune the string to that note. For example, the A above middle C is standard at 440 Hz. A string vibrates back and forth 440 times per second to make this note. If you were to play an A an octave above the one you just played, you would have to make the string vibrate twice as fast. In other words, it would be vibrating at 880 Hz (440 x 2). And if you wanted to go an octave below A 440, you would divide the number in half to get 220 Hz. The ratio of the frequency of any note (including a C) to the frequency of a note an octave below it is 1:2. If were able to freeze a string in mid-vibration and look at the actual physical positions of it as it vibrates twice as fast, you would see that the base note would be vibrating like the outline of an eye, which the note an octave above it would be vibrating like the shape of a sideways figure 8 with pointy ends. You can try it yourself with a long rubber band- pluck the note of the whole length of the rubber band. Now divide it in half with your finger. You will get a note one octave above it. Hope I made things better instead of worse!
What is a oc tcave?
If you mean "octave", it is a group of eight things. Most commonly it is used to describe the relationship between a musical tone and another which has half or double its frequency. The tone with half the frequency is an octave below and the one with double the frequency is an octave above. It's called an octave because it's the eighth note in a diatonic (major or minor) scale.
What is the musical term for the interval between any given note and another that is exactly twice or half the frequency of the first note?
Octave
What is the frequency of tuning fork?
Tuning forks are available for all standard notes, but the most common is an A note, which is 440 Hz
What does gva mean in sheet music?
Play one octave higher than written. The "g" is actual an 8.
What is an octave in piano?
If you look at the piano keys you will notice there is a pattern in the way the black notes interleave the white notes. This pattern is repeated several times along the keyboard. If you select any key (black or white) and then look for the same key in the next repeat of the pattern to the right, that is one octave higher. Another way is, for a white note, call that "1", then counting white notes as you go to the right, one octave higher is note 8. Starting with any black note called "1", then counting black notes only, one octave higher is note 6. There are fewer black notes than white ones. One octave higher is double the sound frequency.
What frequency is 1 octave above 600 Hz?
That would be 1200 Hz. Every octave is a superposition of the note below it, so the frequency doubles. The octaves above that would be 2400 Hz, 4800 Hz, and so on...
