That is an urban myth. Several different researchers, and also the TV show Mythbusters, proved that a duck's quack does echo.

If the answer is supposed to be that a duck's quack cannot echo, that is entirely wrong.Duck quacks do echo.It is a scientific myth that a duck's quack does not echo. Research has shown that a duck's quack does echo, but it is hard to hear because it is difficult to distinguish the quack from the echo.There are several reasons why it is difficult to hear the echo:Echoes are produced after loud noises.

Do guns echo?

This appears to be a mutation of the urban legend "A duck's quack does not echo." Which is false, by the way. If it's a sound and it's in a place where echoes are possible, then it will echo.

What does a duck do that doesn't echo?

is a common myth that a ducks quack does not echo, however this is untrue. The University of Salford have proved that a ducks quack echoes by using a reverberation chamber. There are a number of explainations for why this myth has arised. One is that the echo of a ducks quack is usually too quiet to hear because they quack too quietly for the reflection of the sound to be heard. Another possible reason is that ducks don't quack near reflecting surfaces
