Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The amplitude of sound waves is measured in decibels and the frequency of sound waves is measured in hertz. Therefore, option B is the correct answer. Option A is incorrect because wavelength is a measure of distance, not amplitude or frequency. Option C is incorrect because centimeters and nanometers are also measures of distance, not amplitude or frequency. Option D is incorrect because wavelength is only related to frequency, not amplitude.
