What happens when sound waves hit a soft surface?
Part of the energy of a sound wave is absorbed when it comes in contact with a surface, and the rest of that energy is reflected. A soft surface (such as carpet) will absorb much more of the sound than a hard surface (concrete), but the hard surface would still absorb some amount of energy.
How does a sponge absorb sound?
The fibres in a sponge move and trap/absorbthe sound instead of letting the sound travel to another place, that is a very simplified version.
Is it true that concrete can absorb more force without breaking than a bone can?
yes it is true that bones can sbsorb more force without breaking concrete can
How does the color of the background affect its absorption of solar insolation?
If the color on the background is darker it is more likely to absorb the heat. If it is lighter it repels the light or absorbs less. Also, concrete slabs, brick walls and tile floors absorb the heat. Ever notice when you are walking on the sidewalk in the summer with no shoes its always burning hot?
Is water a good sound insulator?
A vacuum is a great sound insulator. Materials that absorb energy such as wool are good insulators as well. I heard of a silicone adhesive that transformed acoustic energies into heat - that was a good insulator if it was used to glue two sheets of something together.
What would absorb the most sound?
Materials with high density and thickness, such as concrete, rubber, or foam panels, can effectively absorb sound by reducing its reflection and transmission. Additionally, incorporating sound-absorbing structures like acoustic panels or insulation can help to further absorb sound waves in a space.
Does concrete absorb water?
Yes, concrete can absorb water.
Why is quieter a room hung with curtains or one with bare concrete walls?
Curtains help absorb sound waves, whereas sound waves bounce off solid walls, so a curtained room will be more quiet.
Does wood reflect sound?
Wood does not reflect sound as well as harder, smoother surfaces like concrete or glass. Instead, wood tends to absorb sound waves, which can help reduce echoing and create a warmer, more pleasant acoustic environment.
What sound is absorb sound?
reverberants
Which is quieter a room hung with curtains or one with bare concrete walls why?
Curtains help absorb sound waves, whereas sound waves bounce off solid walls, so a curtained room will be more quiet.
Do clocks absorb sound?
No they most definitely do not absorb sound
Does jute bags absorb sound?
Yes, jute bags can help absorb sound due to their fibrous texture which can help dampen sound waves. However, the degree to which they absorb sound may be limited compared to specialized sound-absorbing materials.
Does leather absorb sound?
no
Does sound travel in concrete?
Yes, sound can travel through concrete. However, concrete is a dense material that absorbs and reflects sound waves, which can help reduce noise transmission compared to materials like wood or drywall. The thickness and composition of the concrete will affect how well sound travels through it.
Why are echos produced in empty areas?
Because there is nothing to 'absorb' the sound, echo's are basically a sound reflected by it hitting a surface, if you walked into a house with nothing in it, just the walls, floorboards or concrete floor and ceilings then the sound echos because there are no soft things or cushiony things to absorb the sound and stop it reflecting.
Does rubber foam absorb sound?
No.
