The rate of vibration of sound is called:
amplitude |
|
volume |
|
period |
|
frequency |
The rate of vibration of sound is called frequency and is measured in hertz (Hz). One hertz is one repetition per second and sounds with high frequency have a higher pitch than sounds with lower frequency. Humans can hear sounds in the range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz.

A subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom. It carries a negative electric charge. This desribes which of the following?
electron |
|
proton |
|
neutron |
|
isotope |
An electron is a subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom. It carries a negative electric charge. Generally, an atom has the same number of negative electrons orbiting the nucleus as it does positive protons inside.
"For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." This describes which of Newton's laws of motion?
second |
|
fourth |
|
first |
|
third |
Newton's third law of motion states that For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When an object exerts a force on another object, the second object exerts a force of equal magnitude in the opposite direction on the first object.
