Sound itself does not undergo convection because convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids (liquids or gases). Sound is a mechanical wave that requires a medium, such as air, to propagate. However, the medium through which sound travels can be affected by convection currents, which may influence the speed and direction of the sound wave.
Sound waves can undergo reflection, rarefaction, and compression phenomena. Reflection occurs when sound waves bounce off a surface. Rarefaction is the reduction of the density of air particles in the sound wave, while compression is the increase in density of air particles. Polarization, however, is a phenomenon typically associated with electromagnetic waves, not sound waves.
Reflection is responsible for the echoes of sound. When sound waves encounter a surface, they bounce back, creating an echo.
An interesting question. The answer is yes but you would have to look for a very, very long time to see evidence of this happening - The example I would point to is the convection driving the plate tectonic system in the Earth. This is moving the continents of Europe and America apart at a rate of about 2 cm a year.The fact is that, given enough time, nothing is actually solid - have you ever played with silly putty? if you role it into a ball it will bounce, if you pull it hard it will break, if you pull it slowly it will stretch. It is the same with solids, given enough time they will 'flow' and deform in response to a force.Thus on human time scales, solids do not undergo convection, but on geological time scales they doundergo convection.
The three main types of convection are natural convection, forced convection, and mixed convection. Natural convection occurs due to density differences caused by temperature variations. Forced convection involves the use of external means like fans or pumps to enhance fluid movement. Mixed convection combines both natural and forced convection mechanisms.
When sound waves of the same frequency and amplitude arrive 180 degrees out of phase, they undergo destructive interference. This results in the waves canceling each other out, leading to a reduction in overall sound intensity.
Heat being transferred in three modes. They are conduction, convection and radiation As far as conduction and convection are concerned they may be slower than sound But radiation is by electromagnetic wave. It has the speed of light. So it is not slower than sound.
It takes about 100,000 years for a photon to move from the core of the sun to the convection zone. Photons created in the core of the sun have to undergo a random walk through the dense radiative zone before finally reaching the less dense convection zone.

Yes. Convection is a type of energy and a convection current is, well, the phrase for its currents. So yeah, convection and convection current are the same.

The scientific name for convection is "convection."
The three main types of convection are natural convection, forced convection, and mixed convection. Natural convection occurs due to density differences caused by temperature variations. Forced convection involves the use of external means like fans or pumps to enhance fluid movement. Mixed convection combines both natural and forced convection mechanisms.
Convection current is a stream of fluid propelled by thermal convection. Convection is mostly around gas and liquid
