The category related to sound propagation is called "acoustic effects." This includes phenomena like reflection, absorption, diffraction, and refraction that affect how sound waves move through different mediums.
Sound is a sequence of waves of pressure which propagates through compressible media such as air or water. (Sound can propagate through solids as well, but there are additional modes of propagation). During their propagation, waves can be reflected, refracted, or attenuated by the medium. The purpose of this experiment is to examine what effect the characteristics of the medium have on sound.
The type of waves for the propagation of sound in air is longitudinal. Longitudinal waves are characterized by the vibration of particles in the same direction as the wave's propagation. In the case of sound waves, air molecules move back and forth in the direction of the sound wave as it travels through the air.
Sound propagation as a longitudinal wave differs from other types of wave propagation in that it involves the compression and rarefaction of particles in the medium through which it travels, rather than the oscillation of particles perpendicular to the direction of wave travel. This unique movement of particles allows sound waves to travel through solids, liquids, and gases.
Propagation.
Elastic modulus affects the speed of sound propagation in a material. Materials with higher elastic modulus values transmit sound waves faster than those with lower elastic modulus values. Essentially, the higher the elastic modulus, the faster sound travels through the material.

Different is the speed of propagation. Scroll down to related links and look at "Acoustic or sound waves in air - Radio and light waves in a vacuum".
Propagation of sound in a medium (like the atmosphere) is the collision between the medium particles driven by a vibrating object
Loudness: Sound power is the cause, but sound pressure makes the effect. Scroll down to related links and look at "Sound pressure and sound power - Effect and cause".
Acoustics.
Propagation means "movement through" something in this context. You can study the propagation of sound through air, for example, the most common kind of sound there is for people. Sound propagates through water as well, as you can easily prove by taking a dip in the pool. Does sound propagate through a vacuum? Does it propagate through other materials? These are testable questions.
Propagation of sound is not a chemical reaction, so it is neither exothermic nor endothermic. Sound propagation involves the transfer of mechanical energy through a medium, such as air or water, as vibrations. This process does not involve the release or absorption of heat.

Only the temperature is changing the speed of sound.
Sound! It normally mode of propagation IS in three dimensions.
The type of waves for the propagation of sound in air is longitudinal. Longitudinal waves are characterized by the vibration of particles in the same direction as the wave's propagation. In the case of sound waves, air molecules move back and forth in the direction of the sound wave as it travels through the air.
