    3.9.1 Sound Echo Set 1 QP Ms

    The document describes how sound echoes are produced. A sound wave travels from point X and reflects off a wall back to point Y. Y hears an echo because the sound wave bounced off the wall and returned to Y. The frequency of the sound wave reaching Y is the same 400 Hz as the wave leaving X. Given the speed of 330 m/s, the wavelength of the sound waves leaving X is calculated to be 0.825 m. Sound waves are described as longitudinal waves, where the vibration of the particles is parallel to the direction of energy transfer of the wave.
