Explanation:

• Option A is false: Larger objects typically vibrate slower, producing lower pitch.
• Option B is true: An octave is defined as the interval where one frequency is double the other, corresponding to a pitch difference of one octave.
• Option C is false: Pitch is directly tied to frequency; different frequencies produce different pitches.
• Option D is false: Pitch relates to frequency, while sound intensity refers to loudness.

Answer:

B. Doubling the frequency or pitch forms an octave
