Name we give to frequency of sound usually in musicPitch
Measured in decibelsloudness of sound
The property of a wave that loudness depends uponAmplitude
A change in apparent pitch caused by the motion of the source or recieverThe doppler shift

HarmonicHigher frequencies which will resonate in the same tube as the fundamental
Open pipe (tube) resonatorA tube which is open at both ends
Closed pipe (tube) resonatorA tube which has one closed end
