A definite pitched instrument produces sound at fixed frequencies that are constant at each position or setting. Example: a piano is a definite pitched instrament. When you press Middle C on the Keyboard the same tone occurs every time. "Digital sound is another example"
Where a indefinate pitched instrument is linear or analog in that there is no specific separation between notes. Trombones are a great example, because the slide allows the instrument to not only play a clear precise note such a Middle C, you can plan an near infinate numbers of tones between Middle C and C sharp by minute changes in the position of the slide.
Another way to look at it is, stairs versus ramps. You go up and down stair in measured amounts, no stopping between steps. A ramp has infinite points you can stop and start from.
Hope this helps.

What is a property of both the solid state and the liquid state?
Both solid and liquid states have definite volume, meaning they have a fixed amount of space. Additionally, in both states, the particles are in constant motion although the arrangement of particles is different.
What is the difference between a pitched and an unpitched percussion instrument?
Pitched percussion instruments produce definite pitches or notes when struck, such as a xylophone or marimba. Unpitched percussion instruments do not produce specific pitches and are typically used for rhythmic purposes, like a snare drum or cymbals.
What is the difference between piched and un-piched instruments?
Pitched instruments produce definite pitches or notes when played, such as pianos or guitars. Unpitched instruments produce indefinite pitches or noise-like sounds, such as drums or cymbals. Pitched instruments are used to play melodies and harmonies, while unpitched instruments are often used for rhythmic support.
What instrument measures electric potential?
A voltmeter is the instrument that measures electric potential. It is typically connected in parallel to the circuit or component being measured to determine the voltage difference between two points.
What is the difference between solid liquid and gases in shape?
Solids have a fixed shape and volume, maintaining a definite structure, while liquids have a fixed volume but take the shape of their container, flowing and conforming to it. Gases have neither a fixed shape nor volume, filling the space available to them and expanding to fit any container.

What is the integral of 500096?
Constants can be integrated by multiplying the integrand(thing being integrated) times the difference between the starting point a and the ending point b i.e the integral from 0 to 10 would be 5,000,960 Depends. Are you referring to an indefinite integral (a plain ∫) or a definite integral? I'm not sure about this(i've only spent 2 days learning about integrals), but the indefinite integral of 500096 is 500096x+C. The definite integral of 500096 depends on what are your limits. Look at the answer above.
