The ratio of amplitude of two waves is 3:4. What is the ratio of their:

(i) loudness? (ii) Frequencies?


i) Let,

a1 and a2 be the amplitudes
I1 and I2 be the intensities of the two waves.

Therefore,

space space space space straight I subscript 1 over straight I subscript 2 equals a subscript 1 squared over a subscript 2 squared equals 3 squared over 4 squared
therefore space straight I subscript 1 over straight I subscript 2 space equals space 9 over 16

ii) Frequency is the number of waves formed per second. It only depends on time period. Thus, the ratio of their frequencies is 1:1.
