Absorption Transmission Reflection Refraction Diffusion Parabola Diffraction rarefraction
Absorption
The process by which a material, structure or object takes in sound energy when sound waves are encountered
Transmission
Transmission is the process in which sound travels through or between a material
Reflection
Reflection is when a sound wave bounces of a structure, material or object
Refraction
It the process in which the change in speed of a sound wave causes the wave to change direction
Diffusion
Is the process in which sound waves are scattered or spread out widely
Parabola
The process in which is used to collect or project sound
Diffraction
Involves a change in direction of waves as they pass through an opening or around a barrier in their path
Rarefraction
The reduction of density
The opposite of compression
