Sound Waves in Air (1961)

The film explores the properties of sound waves in air, demonstrating that sound travels at approximately 1,100 feet per second and reflects similarly to light. Through experiments using echoes, beams ...
So far we have only considered sound in isolation and we have seen that sound has velocity, frequency, wavelength and reduces in intensity in proportion to the square of the distance from the source.
The content discusses the fundamentals of acoustics, focusing on sound refraction, the anatomy of the ear, and how sound waves are perceived. It explains how sound travels through the ear, the ...
Ultrasound scans could soon be much more detailed, thanks to a novel material that can bend sound waves the “wrong” way. This property, known as negative refraction, means the material should bring ...
THE principal object of this paper is to show that sound, instead of proceeding along the ground, is lifted or refracted upwards by the atmosphere in direct proportion to the upward diminution of the ...
