Question

How is it possible to distinguish between sounds produced by different instruments tuned to thr same frequency?

Answer 1

Basically, the frequency we assign each note on an instrument is only the main, or loudest, frequency that's being produced. If you listen to a sine wave, what you're hearing is just a particular frequency and nothing else. When you listen to something like a piano or a violin, you're hearing that particular frequency, but also a lot of other, quieter, frequencies that give the note a different "timbre", or audible identity. These frequencies are always mathematically related(3/2 the base frequency, or so on) and depend on the particular construction and material of the instrument or sound source. These other frequencies are what give instruments different identities from each other, and are why you can't just replace a piano with a guitar or something similar.

Answer 2

$answer$

it is the quality or pitch which helps to differentiate between sounds of same frequency
