The table gives some examples. This is because the particles of gases are further apart than liquids or solids. Sound waves travel more slowly when particles are further apart. Back to top Can ...

Scientists have unlocked a previously unseen behavior of acoustic waves, opening up new possibilities for cutting-edge ...

"Surprisingly, sound waves and ocean waves have a lot in common: for example, the breaking of large-amplitude ocean waves is similar to the formation of an acoustic shock wave. Wave breaking ...
