If a person is in front of a smooth surface from which a sound is reflected where does the sound appear to come from?

The sound would be reflected and seem to come from behind the reflective surface. This is commonly experienced near airports, where the sound of aircraft appears to come from the opposite direction, instead of from the airport.

The answer should seem to come from behind the surface.
What happens to sound or light waves when they hit a smooth surface?
They are reflected :)
Why don't you see your reflected image when you look at white rough surface?
If the surface is rought, light may be reflected in just about any direction. There is not the "organized" or "coordinated" reflection which you see in smooth surfaces.If the surface is rought, light may be reflected in just about any direction.

seems to come from behind the surface

Why is water reflective?
The surface tension of the water creates a smooth surface. Light, as well as images captured by the eyes, are reflected on that smooth surface.
What is reflected light from the water or light?
Water is a completely smooth surface and light is reflected from the sun.
Why are image reflected from a rough surface not as clear as those reflected from a smooth surface?
Some light that falls on any surface is scattered back (reflected). A rough surface tends to scatter the light in different directions while a smooth surface tends to scatter more of the original (incident) rays straight back. This explains why a smooth surface reflects a "clearer" image than that reflected from a rough surface.

reflected.
What occurs when light is reflected in one direction from a smooth surface?
Specular reflection
What happens when light is reflected off a smooth surface?
it reflicts back up
