  2. Transmission medium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_medium

    Vacuum or air constitutes a good transmission medium for electromagnetic waves such as light and radio waves. While a material substance is not required for electromagnetic waves to propagate, such waves are usually affected by the transmission media they pass through, for instance, by absorption or reflection or refraction at the interfaces ...

  3. Acoustic transmission line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_transmission_line

    An acoustic transmission line is the use of a long duct, which acts as an acoustic waveguide and is used to produce or transmit sound in an undistorted manner. Technically it is the acoustic analog of the electrical transmission line , typically conceived as a rigid-walled duct or tube, that is long and thin relative to the wavelength of sound ...

  4. Tube sound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tube_sound

    Tube sound (or valve sound) is the characteristic sound associated with a vacuum tube amplifier (valve amplifier in British English), a vacuum tube-based audio amplifier. [1] At first, the concept of tube sound did not exist, because practically all electronic amplification of audio signals was done with vacuum tubes and other comparable ...

  6. Acoustic transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_transmission

    Example of airborne and structure-borne transmission of sound, where Lp is sound pressure level, A is attenuation, P is acoustical pressure, S is the area of the wall [m²], and τ is the transmission coefficient. Acoustic transmission is the transmission of sounds through and between materials, including air, wall, and musical instruments.

  7. Sound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound

    The speed of sound depends on the medium the waves pass through, and is a fundamental property of the material. The first significant effort towards measurement of the speed of sound was made by Isaac Newton. He believed the speed of sound in a particular substance was equal to the square root of the pressure acting on it divided by its density:

  8. Acoustic dispersion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_dispersion

    In acoustics, acoustic dispersion is the phenomenon of a sound wave separating into its component frequencies as it passes through a material. The phase velocity of the sound wave is viewed as a function of frequency. Hence, separation of component frequencies is measured by the rate of change in phase velocities as the radiated waves pass ...
