  2. Refraction (sound) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refraction_(sound)

    Refraction, in acoustics, comparable to the refraction of electromagnetic radiation, is the bending of sound propagation trajectories (rays) in inhomogeneous elastic media (gases, liquids, and solids) in which the wave velocity is a function of spatial coordinates. Bending of acoustic rays in layered inhomogeneous media occurs towards a layer ...

  3. Geometrical acoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometrical_acoustics

    Geometrical acoustics is an approximate theory, valid in the limiting case of very small wavelengths, or very high frequencies. The principal task of geometrical acoustics is to determine the trajectories of sound rays. The rays have the simplest form in a homogeneous medium, where they are straight lines. If the acoustic parameters of the ...

  6. Refraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refraction

    In physics, refraction is the redirection of a wave as it passes from one medium to another. The redirection can be caused by the wave's change in speed or by a change in the medium. [1] Refraction of light is the most commonly observed phenomenon, but other waves such as sound waves and water waves also experience refraction. How much a wave ...

  7. Sound speed gradient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_speed_gradient

    A sound speed gradient leads to refraction of sound wavefronts in the direction of lower sound speed, causing the sound rays to follow a curved path. The radius of curvature of the sound path is inversely proportional to the gradient. [2] When the sun warms the Earth's surface, there is a negative temperature gradient in atmosphere.

  8. File:Comparison refraction diffraction spectra.svg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Comparison_refraction...

    Comparison of spectra obtained by diffraction and refraction: Image title: Comparison of the spectra obtained from a diffraction grating by diffraction (1), and a prism by refraction (2), drawn by CMG Lee. Longer wavelengths (red) are diffracted more, but refracted less than shorter wavelengths (violet). Width: 100%: Height: 100%

  9. Sound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound

    In physics, sound is a vibration that propagates as an acoustic wave through a transmission medium such as a gas, liquid or solid. In human physiology and psychology, sound is the reception of such waves and their perception by the brain. [1]
