Question

What are good and bad reflectors of sound?


Open in App
Solution

  1. Any smooth and hard surfaces like walls, rocks, pillars, wood, metal sheets, and glass will reflect sound waves and are known as good reflectors of sound.
  2. Unlike entirely smooth surfaces, certain materials absorb sound waves instead of reflecting them and are called bad reflectors of sound. e.g. carpets, curtains, sofa sets, bed linen, etc.
