A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Sound waves

Sound waves are longitudinal mechanical waves that propagate through a medium by successive compression and rarefaction of particles. Mastering their basic properties—frequency, wavelength, speed, amplitude and the relationships among them—is essential for solving problems on wave behaviour, resonance and acoustic measurement in the NUC CCMAS / NBTE / NCCE syllabi.
