How Sound Works

Every single sound is produced by the event of vibration between particles. Vibration moves
itself in back and forth movement of an object, being produced by the human vocal cords
every time we speak.
There are two different types of sound waves that sound energy travels in; Transverse and
Longtudinal. In Longtudinal waves, the coils in the wave crowd densely congregated, but
moves further away gradually as the vibrations are parallel compared to the direction of the
waves.
In Transverse waves, the particles vibrate right-angled which is to the direction of the wave.
All sound waves travel at contrasting speeds and in contrasting mediums such as solids,
liquids and gases.
Firstly, in solids the sound particles are located very closely together, the energy moves
along when one particle collides with the other.
Secondly, in liquids the particles are situated slightly further apart, taking the energy to travel
a bit more slowly.
Thirdly, in gases the particles travel at a slower speed compared to the solids and liquids.
The vibrations of the particles produces sound waves with wavelength being the distance
between two consecutive compressions and rare fractions. \
The number of waves passing through a point in seconds is called the frequency, which is
measured in hertz.
Sound waves travel in all various directions which gets reflected.
