What stops sound waves from traveling?
Sound waves can be stopped or absorbed by dense materials such as walls, buildings, or soundproofing materials that prevent the waves from passing through. Additionally, sound waves can be reflected or refracted if they encounter surfaces that are not conducive to their propagation.
The vibrating sound waves cause the what to vibrate?
When you vibrate you create a sound all sounds are created by vibrations.
What effect does water have on the movement of sound waves?
The sound that is produced when a water glass is struck or its lip is rubbed is caused by the vibration of the glass and its effect on the surrounding air. As more or less water is added, the amount of glass that can freely vibrate changes.

What do curtain and carpets do to sound waves?
Sound curtains can absorb incoming sound waves, lessening the noise from the exterior of a room and deadening the sound coming from inside the space. While curtains may not be able to entirely block out loud noises, a properly mounted sound curtain should drastically reduce outside noise. One of the major advantages of sound curtains, air compressor screens, and portable sound control screens is that you can create a quiet, peaceful space even if you live in a noisy area near a busy road or train tracks. Another great advantage of sound curtains is that they are a far less expensive option than installing metal walls or other sound-blocking mechanisms. A disadvantage to sound curtains is their heavy appearance, which may block out any natural light coming from outside the room. However, at Goff’s, customers can benefit from their unique fan folding sound curtain design, which allows you to adjust the level of sound reduction and appearance of your curtains.
Choose from the various mounting options at Goff’s, which include ceiling, wall and freestanding sound curtains. Contact them today at 800-763-1538 to learn more about their effective sound reducing products.
What do you get when two sound waves of slightly different frequencies interfere with each other?
The pitch does not change ( apex ) Your welcome boys and girls
How sound waves produced transmitted and propageted?
Sound waves are propagated as compression waves in air (and in other gases). They will be produced by any object vibrating at appropriate frequency. As far as humans are concerned, we can hear frequencies from about 25 HZ up to 15 kiloHz, though the upper register gets less efficient as you age. For music or speech transmission we use a loudspeaker which is some sort of diaphragm actuated by a moving coil which responds to electrical signals in this frequency range, and the diaphragm produces the compression waves simply by moving in and out. Sound waves travel at about 720 mph in air at normal temperature and pressure.
How do sound wave move from place to place?
Waves
more like vibrations that's more like how they move because vibrations move throught matter and then so does sound
If a sound wave speeds up and its frequency does not change what happens to the wavelength?
With the same speed -Apex (1.2.4)
How long does it take sound to travel 20 miles?
The speed of sound in air is approximately 343 meters per second. To convert this to miles per hour, we multiply by 3600 seconds per hour and divide by 1609.34 meters per mile, giving us roughly 767 mph. Therefore, it would take approximately 1 minute and 34 seconds for sound to travel 20 miles in ideal conditions.
If you shout into an empty bucket your voice bounces off the sides loudly this is called?
This is echo.
Sound can be both digital and analog. In analog sound, waveforms are continuously varying, while in digital sound, the waveforms are represented by discrete binary numbers. Most modern audio technologies, such as CDs and MP3s, use digital sound, while older mediums like vinyl records use analog sound.
What do you mean by frequency of sound is 70Hz?
It means the air moves back and forth 70 times in one second. These vibrations in the air are what we perceive as sound.
Yes, some continuous loud sounds are related to hypertension (high blood pressure). In addition, sounds outside the audible range can make some people nauseous, etc., even if they are not all that loud. Loud sounds if sudden, sharp and loud enough, may damage your ear drums. An loud sounds experienced over a long enough period of time can damage your hearing.
How does sound enter your ear without bouncing away?
Sound enters the outer ear and travels down the ear canal, where it causes the eardrum to vibrate. These vibrations are then transmitted through the middle ear bones to the inner ear, where they are converted into electrical signals that are sent to the brain. The shape of the ear and the presence of hair and earwax help to prevent sound from bouncing away.
Two narrow slits with gap 0.03 mm and got separated by 3 mm will be illuminated by a monochromatic light which comes out of single slit. These two slits are named as Young's double slits. The waves coming out of these two will be in coherence.
Can the sounds of frequencies less than 20 Hz hurt your ears?
yes and no... depends on how close the source is...
What are some facts about sound?
Sound moves through the air at 340m per second
If you have the time, just divide the distance by the time. That will give you the speed.
