Describe ways that echoes are used in measurement?
The speed of sound is the distance travelled by the sound waves in the time between the original sound and the echo. For a direct echo, the distance travelled is double the distance to the reflecting surface.
What is a sound wave that reflects off a hard surface?
An Echo-echo-echo-echo! The answer is Echo
What is the similarity between echoes of sound and images in a mirror?
Echoes of sound and images in a mirror involves sound waves and light waves respectively being reflected off a surface.
What is the result of a reflected sound wave?
The result of a reflected sound wave is obviously an echo.
What is Wall of Sound?
Wall of Sound is when Echo Echo duplicate and together shout to reflect attacks from enemies.

What is sound echoes?
In audio signal processing and acoustics, an echo (plural echoes) is a reflection of sound, arriving at the listener some time after the direct sound. Typical examples are the echo produced by the bottom of a well, by a building, or by the walls of an enclosed room. A true echo is a single reflection of the sound source. The time delay is the extra distance divided by the speed of sound.">In audio signal processing and acoustics, an echo (plural echoes) is a reflection of sound, arriving at the listener some time after the direct sound.

What happened to the speed of sound in air in closed room?
Nothing!! It remains same. In a closed room, if it is long enough, you may experience an echo. That is reflection of sound. But speed of sound does not change.
What reflected sound is called?
reflected sound is either reverberation or echo
What is a sound wave that reflects off a hard surface?
An Echo-echo-echo-echo! The answer is Echo
What is a reflected sound?
a reflected sound is an echo
What is the speed of an echo?
actually an echo does not have any speed . it travels at zero speed
What phenomena takes place when sound waves are reflcted from a suface along paralled lines?
When sound waves are reflected from a surface along parallel lines an echo takes place. The amount the echo repeats itself is determined by how close the lines are to each other.
What is the meaning of the word echo?
An echo is a sound caused by the reflection of sound waves.
What is a common name for the reflection of sound waves?
Echo.
Can someone outline for you please using examples what is meant by sound reflection?
Sound only reflects off hard surfaces. The classic example of sound reflection is an echo. If you are in a very large room or a long hallway or outdoors near a large wall, when you make a sudden sound you will hear it reflected back to you as an echo a fraction of a second later. Another example is SONAR. a pulse of sound is transmitted through the water. A hard object, submarine, torpedo etc., reflects the sound and it is received back. Knowing the speed of sound through water and the time between transmit and receive, the distance of the object, it's direction and closing/retreat speed can be determined.
How does an echo sounder determine the depyh of water?
An echo sounder measures water depth by sending a sound wave (ping) from a transmitter down to the seabed. The sound wave reflects off the seabed and returns to the echo sounder, which calculates the time it takes for the signal to return. By knowing the speed of sound in water, the echo sounder can determine the depth of the water based on the time taken for the signal to return.
