If the frequency of a sound is higher then we say that the sound has lower pitch.<\/p>\n<p>Question 4.<br \/>\nDefine frequency.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe number of oscillations completed by a vibrating body in one second is called frequency. The unit of frequency is hertz. It is denoted by Hz. If a vibrating body makes 20 oscillations in a second we say that its frequency is 20 Hz. The human voice can produce frequency between 60 Hz and 13,000 Hz. It is interesting that a human ear can hear sound of frequency between 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz.<\/p>\n<p>Question 5.<br \/>\nA string musical instrument was first plucked with a force of smaller magnitude and then with a force of greater magnitude. In which case would the instrument produce a louder sound?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe loudness of sound depends upon the amplitude of vibration. The amplitude of string is larger when it is plucked with greater force and hence the sound will be louder in that case.<\/p>\n<p>Question 6.<br \/>\nDifferentiate between musical sound and noise.<br \/>\nAnswer:<\/p>\n<table border=\"2\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"320\">                <strong>Musical sound<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"309\"><strong> Noise<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"320\">(i) Musical sound is pleasant, smooth and agreeable to the ear.<\/td>\n<td width=\"309\">(i) Noise is unpleasant, jarring and disagreeable to the ear.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"320\">(ii) It is produced by periodic vibrations which are regular and continuous.<\/td>\n<td width=\"309\">(ii) It is produced by irregular vibrations which are discontinuous.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"320\">(iii) There are no sudden changes in loudness and pitch of musical sound.<\/td>\n<td width=\"309\">(iii) There are sudden changes in loudness and pitch of noise.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sound_Class_8_Extra_Questions_Higher_Order_Thinking_Skills\"><\/span>Sound Class 8 Extra Questions Higher Order Thinking Skills<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Question 1.<br \/>\nHow is sound produced and how is it transmitted and heard by us?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nSound is a form of energy produced and transmitted by a vibrating matter. It travels in form of waves through matter and moves in to and fro direction. When this wave reach eardrum it makes the eardrum to vibrate. The eardrum sends vibrations to the inner ear. From there, the signal goes to the brain and we are able to hear the sound.<\/p>\n<p>Question 2.<br \/>\nSuppose a bell is ringing in a vacuum. Will you able to hear the sound?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nWe will not be able to hear the sound of vibration because sound cannot travel in vacuum.<\/p>\n<p>Question 3.<br \/>\nWhat is the function of hair and wax in ear canal?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe hair and wax in the ear canal help to keep out foreign debris such as dirt and bugs.<\/p>\n<p>Question 4.<br \/>\nWhen we speak and hear, does any part of our body vibrate? Name them.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nYes. When we speak, vocal cords vibrate to produce sound and when we hear, eardrum vibrate to receive the sound wave.<\/p>\n<p>Question 5.<br \/>\nWe have learnt that vibration is necessary for producing sound. Explain why the sound produced by every vibrating body cannot be heard by us.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nIf the sound of vibrating body is audible then only we will be able to heard it otherwise we will not be able to hear it.<\/p>\n<p>Question 6.<br \/>\nWhy we are able to hear sound of a clock clearer at night than in day?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe noise level is quite low at night. Therefore the sound of the clock appears much clearer at night than in the day.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sound_Class_8_Extra_Questions_Value-Based_Questions\"><\/span>Sound Class 8 Extra Questions Value-Based Questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Question 1.<br \/>\nOn Ramesh\u2019s 13th birthday, his father invited all his friends and their relatives.
