The time for a sound wave to travel a certain distance is the duration it takes for the sound wave to propagate from one point to another through a medium. It is a measure of how long it takes for the sound energy to travel a specific distance, and it is a fundamental concept in the study of acoustics and wave propagation.Â
- t: Time for the sound wave to travel the distance “l” (in seconds, s).
- l: Distance traveled by the sound wave (in meters, m).
- a: Speed of sound in the medium (in meters per second, m/s).
