The result of a reflected sound wave is obviously an echo.
Reflected
A bounced sound wave is acalled an echo. You can hear these echos when you yell into a cave or a crevasse or an abyss.
When a wave is partially reflected at a boundary, some of the wave energy bounces back into the original medium, while the rest continues to propagate into the new medium. The degree of reflection depends on the properties of the two media (such as their densities and speeds of sound) and the angle at which the wave strikes the boundary.
It means that the sound wave goes toward the canyon wall, and then a wave carrying part of the energy comes back from the canyon wall. The remaining energy will be absorbed or will pass through.
Sound waves are longitudinal waves; they travel from side to side, not up and down like transverse waves.
The reflected sound wave is called an echo.
When a sound wave is reflected, you may hear an echo or reverberation of the original sound. The reflected sound wave can create additional auditory cues that can affect how the sound is perceived in the environment.
When a sound wave is reflected, you might hear an echo. The reflected sound wave can arrive at your ear slightly after the direct sound wave, creating a delayed repetition of the original sound.
Sometimes it makes an echo or reverberation.
Echoes
When an incoming wave combines with a reflected wave in such a way that the combined wave appears to be standing still the result is a standing still wave.

Reflected
Reflected
When a sound wave encounters a barrier or boundary, some of the wave energy can be reflected back towards its source. This reflection occurs due to changes in the medium's properties, such as density or elasticity. The amount of reflection depends on factors like the angle of incidence and the acoustic properties of the reflecting surface.
The common name for a reflected sound wave is an echo. This occurs when sound waves bounce off a surface and return back to the listener's ears, creating a distinct repetition of the original sound.
The echo of a sound wave is due to the reflection of the sound wave off a hard surface, such as a wall or a cliff. The reflected sound wave travels back towards the source, creating the perception of an echo.
