what is transmission of sound
Answers
Sound waves are pressure waves that travel through Earth's crust, water bodies, and atmosphere. Natural sound frequencies specify the frequency attributes of sound waves that will efficiently induce vibration in a body (e.g., the tympanic membrane of the ear) or that naturally result from the vibration of that body.Sound waves are created by a disturbance that then propagates through a medium (e.g., crust, water, air). Individual particles are not transmitted with the wave, but the propagation of the wave causes particles (e.g., individual air molecules) to oscillate about an equilibrium position.
Every object has a unique natural frequency of vibration. Vibration can be induced by the direct forcible disturbance of an object or by the forcible disturbance of the medium in contact with an object (e.g. the surrounding air or water). Once excited, all such vibrators (i.e., vibratory bodies) become generators of sound waves. For example, when a rock falls, the surrounding air and impacted crust undergo sinusoidal oscillations and generate a sound wave.
