Why can you hear an echo only if you shout in one particular direction?
An echo occurs when sound waves bounce off a surface and return to your ears. You hear an echo when the time delay between the original sound and the reflected sound is long enough for your brain to perceive them separately. If you shout in one particular direction, the sound waves need to travel a sufficient distance before bouncing back to you to create that noticeable delay and produce an echo.
If you were standing at the bottom of a canyon shouting I can you wall that is what thousand 360 feet away how long will it take for the sound to come back as a echo?
It would take approximately 6 seconds for the sound to travel to the wall 360 feet away and bounce back as an echo. The speed of sound in air is about 1,125 feet per second, so the total distance traveled would be 720 feet (360 feet to the wall + 360 feet back). Divide this distance by the speed of sound to get the time, which is roughly 0.64 seconds each way, totaling about 6 seconds round trip.
Which of these uses sound waves to measure the distance between objects underwater?
Sound waves bounce off the ocean floor and come back up to whatever emitted it. The time it takes for the sound wave to come back tells how far down it went. Doing this many times over and over, one can map out the ocean floor, and if the sound wave comes back relatively fast, that means there is something on the ocean floor.
How does the density of a material in the beaker affect how long the sound continued to be heard after the beaker was tapped?
The density of the material in the beaker affects how long the sound is heard after tapping due to the material's ability to absorb and transmit sound waves. Materials with higher densities tend to absorb sound waves more effectively, resulting in shorter duration of sound transmission after tapping. Conversely, materials with lower densities tend to allow sound waves to travel through them more easily, resulting in longer-lasting sound transmission.
Why a loud sound has a long amplitude?
A loud sound has a long amplitude because the air particles are moving back and forth over a greater distance, creating stronger waves of pressure that our ears perceive as a louder noise. The larger the amplitude of a sound wave, the more energy it carries, resulting in a louder sound.
Clarissa is standing at the bottom of a canyon wall that is 4300 feet away how long will it take for the sound to come back to her as an echo?
Well, honey, sound travels at around 1,125 feet per second, so it'll take about 7.6 seconds for the echo to bounce back to Clarissa. Just enough time for her to come up with a witty comeback for that canyon wall.
Does echo have a long O sound?
It has a long O sound - and can repeat a few times.

What is the difference between reverberation and echo?
Reverberation is the persistence of sound in an enclosed space due to multiple reflections off surfaces. Echo is the distinct repetition of a sound caused by reflection of sound waves off distant surfaces, resulting in a delayed and distinct sound repetition. Think of reverberation as a continuous overlapping of sound reflections, while echo is a distinct, separate repetition of the sound.
How long can an echo last?
The duration of an echo depends on a few factors such as the distance between the sound source and the reflecting surface, the material and shape of the surface, and the acoustics of the environment. Generally, an echo can last anywhere from a few milliseconds to a few seconds.
If Sound travels through air at 330 meters per second how long will it take a bat's cry to reach its prey and echo back if the prey is 1 meter away?
The total distance traveled by the sound wave is 2 m. At a rate of 330 m/s, it will take 0.00606 seconds for the bat to hear the echo.
How is echo useful?
EchoesEchoes are usually used to measure distances for example a "Bat" creates a high velocity sound wave that hits its pray "The Moth" and it comes back with an echo of where abouts it is.Also something called an "Cardioechogram" also, known as a "Cardiogram" is used to measure the heart bps.So Echoes Are An Useful Measuring Device.
How can you use echo to find out the speed of sound?
If you want to be as accurate as possible you will need to start with the temperature of the air. Once you know the temperature of the air you plug it in to this formula: V = 331 √1 + (T/273) V is the velocity of sound in air at temperature T in degrees Celsius. Now that you know how fast sound will travel through the air at the current temperature, measure the time it takes for the sound to be transmitted and the echo received. Take that number and plug it in to this formula: V = m/s or Velocity = meters/seconds From that we get: Distance = Velocity/time Divide the distance in half and you have your distance from the object which the echo bounced off of.
When sound waves reflect off an object over a long distance the brain notices the delay as a?
It is an echo.
Is the a in back a short or long sound?
It's a short sound. A long sound for a is something like in May.
How do humans know how fast the speed of sound is?
Its not hard to work out. An echo is the easiest way. Stand one mile from a cliff and set off a firecracker or fire a shot. Time how long it takes for the echo to return. Do the necessary arithmetic and you come up with about 700 miles per hour.
