MCQ
Quality of a musical note depends on
  • ✓
    Harmonics present
  • B
    Amplitude of the wave
  • C
    Fundamental frequency
  • D
    Velocity of sound in the medium
✓

Answer

Correct option: A.
Harmonics present
a
(a)The quality of sound depends upon the number of harmonics present. Due to different number of harmonics present in two sounds, the shape of the resultant wave is also different.
