Sound is a form of energy produced by vibrations that travel through a medium, such as air or water. While we can't see sound waves, they can be represented visually using waveforms or spectrograms. The frequency and amplitude of sound waves determine the pitch and volume of the sound we hear.

What is the definition of sound?

Scroll down to related links and look at "Sound energy - Wikipedia". Scroll down to related links and look at "Sound pressure and Sound power - Effect and Cause". Scroll down to related links and look at "Sound - Wikipedia" and "Acoustics - Wikipedia". ________________ Alternate Sound is a mechanical wave that travels as a difference of pressure through a medium that is a solid, liquid or gas. It has a frequency within the limits of hearing, which for humans is usually considered between 20 Hz and 20,000 Hz (20 to 20,000 cycles per second). This is not an absolute range; many can hear sounds above 20,000 Hz. The sound also has to be of sufficient strength to actually be heard, otherwise it is not sound.


What does it look like when a sound wave hits an object?

When a sound wave hits an object, it causes the object to vibrate at the same frequency as the sound wave. This can sometimes be seen as the object physically moving, especially if the sound wave has a high intensity or frequency.


What is the speed of sound at a temperature of -20C?

The speed of sound at -20°C is approximately 319 m/s. Sound travels slower in colder temperatures because the molecules of the medium are closer together, resulting in a slower propagation of sound waves.


What determines loudness of the sound?

Loudness is a word from psychoacoustics. It is the quality of a sound that is the primary psychological correlate of physical strength or amplitude. Loudness is a really subjective measure. It is often confused with objective measures of sound pressure or sound intensity. The perception of loudness varies from person to person, therefore it cannot be universally measured using any single metric. Loudness is also affected by parameters other than sound pressure, including frequency and duration. Scroll down to related links and look at "Dependance of sound levels and the corresponding factors - The subjectivly sensed loudness (volume)".
