I'm Killing Myself...

Begin Function (Random Rant)

Having 6 (going to 7 soon) assignments/practicals/class work etc to grade this week. 3 chapters to prepare for lesson including the year 5 Work Energy Power lecture/tutorial notes and tons of administration work such as level camp stuff, CHAOs competition, work review blah blah to do this week...

Have no choice but to bring work home...

But nothing perks up my night when I mark something like this.

Question: Describe how is the sound heard affected by the change in (i) frequency and (ii) amplitude?
Answer: (i) The frequency affects the pitch of the sound and (ii) the amplitude affects the loudness of the sound.
Technically correct answers but not so relevant in Physics context. Just like the joke about a helicopter lost in a fog and asked someone in the building where is he. The guy answered "You are here" and the pilot knew exactly where he was.

End Task (Random rant)
