How Light waves are bent more easily than sound waves true or false?

True. Light waves have a much shorter wavelength compared to sound waves, making them more easily bent or diffracted when passing through different mediums. This is why we often observe phenomena like rainbows or sunsets, where light waves are scattered or bent by particles in the atmosphere.


Do sound waves always travel in straight lines explain?

No, Sound is a pressure wave not a linear wave, the waves radiate spherically from their point of origin. Also as a pressure wave, it travels in a medium and if that medium is moving the sound wave propagation can be modified by that movement (bent). They also behave like sea waves impinging on a headland and can be bent round objects in their path in complex ways.

What happens to beta radiation in a magnetic field?

Alpha waves are bent Gamma waves are not affected Beta waves are not bent


What is difference between reflection and refraction of sound wave?

Reflection of sound waves occurs when they bounce off a surface and change direction. Refraction of sound waves involves a change in the speed and direction of the waves as they pass from one medium to another, causing the waves to bend.
