|
Sound level and loudness |
Are not equivalent (loudness represented by phons) |
|
|
Velocity and frequency going from one medium to anotha |
Velocity changes but frequency stays the same (not true for light) |
|
|
Why is the sun bright but not loud? |
Sound waves are longitudinal waves and require a medium to travel |
|

|
Zeroth law of thermodynamics |
Temperature is a fundamental product property of any substance, two substances in contact will transfer heat until they achieve the same temperature |
|
|
