Introduction
Click to edit Master subtitle style Fundamentals of acoustics:

is, wave motion in gases, liquids and solids, and the effects of such wave motion.

Acoustics: Acoustics is the science of sound, that

Music, Transducers, Sound recording and reproduction, design of theatres and concert halls, and noise control.

Cont..
Noise :An unpleasant or unexpected sound created by a vibrating object.

Vibration :It is defined as any objectionable repetitive motion of an object, back-and-forth or up-and-down.

Harshness :It is defined as an aggressive suspension feel or lack of give in response to a single input.

Sound propagation transmission and absorption

Longitudinal : The direction of vibration is same as Click direction of travel. their to edit Master subtitle style gases plasma Liquid

Transverse: The direction of vibration is perpendicular to the direction of travel. Ripples in the pond.

Transmission
Soundto edit Masterthrough astyle Click is transmitted subtitle medium by inducing vibrational motion of the molecules through which it is travelling.

Absorption
It is the property of the material which changes the acoustic energy of the sound wave into another form example heat. SONAR Sound absorbing materials

Speed of sound
Click to edit Master subtitle style Distance that a point on a sound wave travels per unit of time.

Speed =distance/time Unit =m/s It mainly depends on temperature ,higher the temperature higher the speed.

Sound power,pressure,intensity
Sound power: Energy of sound per unit of time(J/s). edit Master subtitle style Click to vSound pressure: It is the localpressure deviation from the ambient atmospheric pressurecaused by asound wave. Sound pressure in air can be measured using a microphone, and in water using ahydrophone. Measured in pascal(Pa) vSound intensity:Sound intensity is defined as the sound power per unit area. The usual context is the measurement of sound intensity in the air at a listener's location. The basic units are watts/m2or watts/cm2.

Decibel A , B,C
Sound meters are normally fitted with filters adapting the measured sound response to the Click sense of sound. human to edit Master subtitle style common filters are db(A), db(B),db(C) db(A) corresponds to inverse of 40db and it is less sensitive to very high and very low frequencies. db(B) corresponds to inverse of 15db, it is used between C and A. Db(C) subjective to very high sound pressure levels.
