Question

explain how sound propagates through gaseous medium.​

Answer 1

Answer:

In a gas or liquid, sound consists of compression waves. In solids, waves propagate as two different types. ... It is due to elastic deformation of the medium perpendicular to the direction of wave travel; the direction of shear-deformation is called the "polarization" of this type of wave.

Sound pressure: p, SPL,LPA

Sound power: P, SWL, LWA

Answer 2

Explanation:

In a gas or liquid, sound consists of compression waves. In solids, waves propagate as two different types. A longitudinal wave is associated with compression and decompression in the direction of travel, and is the same process in gases and liquids, with an analogous compression-type wave in solids.

Sound pressure: p, SPL,LPA

Sound power: P, SWL, LWA
