Diffraction occurs when waves what around the edge of a barrier?
Diffraction occurs when waves bend around the edge of a barrier.
What occurs when sound waves apparently bend around an obstacle?
The phenomenon is known as diffraction.
Occurs when sound waves apparently bend around an obstacle.?
The phenomenon is known as diffraction.
The amount of diffraction that occurs when a sound wave encounters a barrier depends on the waves?
diffraction wavelength
What is the bending of waves around the edge of a barrier called?
Diffraction is the bending of waves around an obstacle under specific circumstances.

Why does diffraction of light support the idea that light is made of waves?
Diffraction is a typical phenomenon for all sorts of waves. So is interference - another clue that light is made of waves.
What is the bending of waves around the edge of a barrier called?
Diffraction is the bending of waves around an obstacle under specific circumstances.
Why is diffraction of sound waves more easily observed than diffraction of light waves?
sound waves travel fast than light waves
Can sound wave diffract?
No. Diffraction is not a wave; it is something that HAPPENS to waves; to all sorts of waves.
How would compare and contrast the reflection refraction and diffraction of water waves and sound waves?
they are all related to how waves change direction
What are the examples of Reflections of Water waves and what is it all about?
The examples of reflection of water waves include reflection, refraction and diffraction.
Does diffraction only happen in transverse waves?
No, it is a universal phenomenon for all sorts of waves - both transverse and longitudinal.
What is the diffraction of light waves?
Diffraction of light waves is caused by the density of the medium through which the light is passing. Diffraction results when light travels from rarer to denser medium.
