Pitch

Real World Example

Imagine trying to decide how quickly you should talk when you're having a conversation. Just as you adjust your speaking speed to match the importance or excitement of the message, the pitch of a sound is determined by how frequently the sound waves hit your ears. In this analogy, the speed of your speech represents the frequency of the sound waves: faster speech (higher frequency) conveys urgency or excitement (higher pitch), while slower speech (lower frequency) suggests calmness or seriousness (lower pitch).
