1 Answer

Answer :

(1) Adiabatic compression and rarefaction Explanation: Sound is a mechanical wave that is an oscillation of pressure transmitted through a solid, liquid, or gas, composed of frequencies within the range of hearing. During propagation, waves can be reflected, refracted, or attenuated by the medium. Sound is transmitted through gases, plasma, and liquids as longitudinal waves, also called compression waves.
