These waves are created by the movement of an object, such as a guitar string or a vocal cord, which causes pressure changes in the surrounding air. These changes in pressure travel through the air as sound waves, which we hear as sound. The frequency of a sound wave determines its pitch. Low frequencies produce low-pitched sounds, such as a bass guitar or a rumbling thunderstorm, while high frequencies produce high-pitched sounds, such as a bird's chirp or a whistle. Our brain and body respond to sound frequencies in various ways. For example, low-frequency sounds can induce feelings of relaxation and calmness, while high-frequency sounds can create a sense of alertness and focus. Certain frequencies have also been shown to have therapeutic effects on the body, such as reducing anxiety and promoting healing.
