Correct Answer: Amplitude


Solution : The correct answer is Amplitude.

The loudness of a sound depends upon its intensity or amplitude. Loudness is determined by the amount of energy a sound wave carries per unit area while travelling through a medium. A higher intensity or larger amplitude leads to a louder sound, whereas a lower intensity or smaller amplitude results in a lower sound.
