Echo
Repitition of sound caused by reflection of sound waves
is called echo .
For
𝓚𝓲𝓷𝓮𝓶𝓪𝓽𝓲𝓬𝓼 .
eg
:
if a person shouts in an
empty hall ,
the
sound
gets reflected back after sometime and thus an
echo is heard
.

If standing on a mountain top we make a sound ,
2𝓓
echo will be heard .

Minimum Distance For Echo :
sensation of hearing persists in human brain for .
01sec .
This means that sound sensation remains for
0.1 see in our brain .
Thus , for clarity of an echo, minimum

gap between
actual sound and reflected sound should be 0.1sec

Reverberation
A sound created in a large hall will persist by repeated
reflections from walls and
ceilings until it is reduced
to
𝓚𝓲𝓷𝓮𝓶𝓪𝓽𝓲𝓬𝓼 a value which is no
longer audible .
This repeated reflection that results in

persistence of
sound is called reverberation
