A rare faction is an area of a sound wave where there is lesser compression of the medium,ie Rarefaction is the reduction of a medium's density, or the opposite of compression

∙ 13y agoA rarefaction is a region in a sound wave where the particles are spread out, resulting in lower pressure than the surrounding areas. This is in contrast to a compression, where particles are closer together and pressure is higher. Rarefactions and compressions alternate in a sound wave as it travels through a medium.
The less dense areas created as a sound wave propagates are called rarefactions.
The amplitude of a sound wave is the same as its volume.
The amplitude of a sound wave affects its loudness. The greater the amplitude of a sound wave, the louder the sound. Amplitude is related to the intensity of the sound wave.
A quiet sound wave has lower amplitude and intensity compared to a loud sound wave. This means the vibrations produced by the quiet sound wave are less forceful and have less energy, resulting in a softer sound.
The top of a sound wave is called the crest. It corresponds to the point where the amplitude of the wave is highest.

No, a sound wave is a compressional wave.
Wave refraction to change in the wave speed or wavelength when a wave travels from one medium to another.
The less dense areas created as a sound wave propagates are called rarefactions.
No. A sound wave is a pressure wave.
yes a sound wave is a Compressional wave
The amplitude of a sound wave is the same as its volume.
The amplitude of a sound wave affects its loudness. The greater the amplitude of a sound wave, the louder the sound. Amplitude is related to the intensity of the sound wave.
The frequency of this sound wave is very near constant.
A quiet sound wave has lower amplitude and intensity compared to a loud sound wave. This means the vibrations produced by the quiet sound wave are less forceful and have less energy, resulting in a softer sound.
The bigger the troughs of the sound wave and height of the wave corresponds to the loudness the higher the wave the louder the sound.
The result of a reflected sound wave is obviously an echo.
