To determine which sound among the given options will most likely have the highest pitch, we need to consider their frequencies. The pitch of a sound is directly related to its frequency: the higher the frequency, the higher the pitch.
Let's analyze each option:
1. A bass drum has a frequency of \(150 \text{ Hz}\).
2. A distant thunder has a frequency of \(90 \text{ Hz}\).
3. A tuba has a frequency of \(60 \text{ Hz}\).
4. A whistle has a frequency of \(1000 \text{ Hz}\).
Now, we compare these frequencies:
- \(150 \text{ Hz}\) (bass drum)
- \(90 \text{ Hz}\) (distant thunder)
- \(60 \text{ Hz}\) (tuba)
- \(1000 \text{ Hz}\) (whistle)
Among these frequencies, \(1000 \text{ Hz}\) is the highest. Therefore, the sound with the highest frequency, and thus the highest pitch, is the whistle.
Hence, the whistle will most likely have the highest pitch.
