What is the effect produced by reflections of sound waves?
Reverberation
How are the reflections of sound waves used?
Because when it reflects off of the rarefaction, it tightens causing sound waves to burst.

What are the Types of waves encounter daily?
Water waves, sound, light.
Does a reflection bounce off of a sound waves surface once the sound waves hit the surface?
no
How does the human brain perceive infrared sound wave reflections from stationary metal objects?
The term "infrared" refers to electromagnetic waves, not to sound waves.
What happens when transverse electromagnetic waves encounter cavity?
light waves or electromagnetic waves are transverse and sound waves are longitudinal
Are surface waves compression waves?
No. surface waves on the surface of water is transverse in nature. It has crests and troughs. Compression and rarefaction will be in longitudinal wave. example sound waves.
What is the science behind a reflection?
Like in a mirror? A reflection in terms of light is the interaction of electromagnetic waves (light) with electrons at the surface of the reflecting material. Reflections also occur with other types of waves, such as sound or waves on water. Whenever wave energy makes contact with a material surface, it is either reflected, absorbed or transmitted through the material.
Which type of waves are combination waves that occur at the boundary between two media?
Surface Waves
What are multiple reflections called?
Multiple reflections are called reverberations. They occur when sound waves bounce off multiple surfaces before reaching a listener, creating a complex series of echoes that can affect the quality of the sound.
What are facts about waves?
There are different kinds of waves... sound, ocean, surface, longitudinal, and transverse.
