Sound Notes. The Nature of Sound Sound travels in longitudinal waves consisting of oscillating compressions and rarefactions through the air. Sound travels.
 Making Sound Waves:  A sound wave begins with a vibration.  How Sound Travels:  Like other mechanical waves, sound waves carry energy through a medium.
The difference between sound and light They’re both waves, after all.

Sound surrounds us all the time. Throughout the day we hear many kinds of sounds, such as the clatter of pots and pans, the roar of traffic and the voices.

Waves can also be reflective and refractive Waves can bounce off of something after striking it. That is a reflection. Sound and light waves can equally.

IFMA San Diego “The Sound of Silence” ABSORPTION

Pure silence can actually be very uncomfortable.

What we want is “Sound Control”

ABC’s of Acoustics

ABSORB COVER BLOCK ABC’s of Acoustics

Speed of sound = over 1,000 feet per second The Main Problem Reverberation: As defined by the Oxford Dictionary 1. prolongation of a sound; resonance: 2. a continuing effect; a repercussion: Speed of sound = over 1,000 feet per second

The Different Types of Sound Waves Hz = unit of measurement that indicates frequency - i.e. the number of times something occurs per second. 500 2000 … low medium high (percussion instruments, air conditioning, printers…) Human voice, speech (violin, whistle…)

Objective is not to eliminate sound, but rather to eliminate “noise” and achieve acoustic correction in the space.
