	Sound
		The characteristics of sound are frequency, wavelength, amplitude and velocity.
		A sound wave is usually represented graphically by a wavy, horizontal line; the upper part of the wave (the crest) indicates a compression and the lower part (the trough) indicates a rarefaction.
		In sound waves parts of matter (molecules or groups of molecules) move in a direction of the spreading of the disturbance (as opposite to transversal waves).

		Sound is a vibration or wave of air molecules caused by the motion of an object.
		The bottom half of the diagram is a representation of the pressure of the air during a sound wave.
		In a telephone, sound waves produced by a person's voice exert pressure on a thin metal plate called a diaphragm, which vibrates and presses on carbon granules in the mouthpiece.

	Sound is a Mechanical Wave
		Since a sound wave is a disturbance which is transported through a medium via the mechanism of particle interaction, a sound wave is characterized as a mechanical wave.
		If the sound wave is moving through air, then as one air particle is displaced from its equilibrium position, it exerts a push or pull on its nearest neighbors, causing them to be displaced from their equilibrium position.
		Sound is a wave which is created by vibrating objects and propagated through a medium from one location to another.

	Sound
		Sound waves are mechanical, compression waves which are in general longitudinal in nature - meaning that the particles vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave's velocity.
		If only a single disturbance creates a sound wave, such as a ball crashing into a bat, or a tree falling in a forest, that disturbance is not repetitive and does not result in a periodic wave, it would instead be called a pulse.
		A sound's frequency is totally dependent on the motion of the source creating it -- that is, frequency is independent of the medium through which the sound travels.

	Reference.com/Encyclopedia/Sound recording
		The sound was amplified by a cone that was attached to the diaphragm.
		An electrical signal, which is analogous to the sound that is to be recorded, is fed to the recording head, inducing a pattern of magnetization similar to the signal.
		The sound of the performers was captured by a diaphragm with the cutting needle connected to it.

	Acoustics Monitoring Program
		The amplitude of a sound wave is proportional to the maximum distance a vibrating particle is displaced from rest.
		To the human ear, an increase in frequency is perceived as a higher pitched sound, while an increase in amplitude is perceived as a louder sound.
		A propagating sound wave consists of alternating compressions and rarefactions which are detected by a receiver as changes in pressure.

	Sound
		Sound is thought to be the waves caused by the vibration of the object, whether or not they are heard by the ears.
		Sound waves travel through the air by vibrating or moving the particles of matter in the air.
		Sound is any disturbance that travels through air, ground, or water to be heard by the ears.

	Sound Waves - Succeed in Physical Science
		Sound can also be created by vibrating an object in a liquid such as water or in a solid such as iron.
		Since the velocity of sound is approximately the same for all wavelengths, frequency is often used to better describe the effects of the different wavelengths.
		Sound is a series of compression waves that moves through air or other materials.

	Physics Demonstrations - Sound
		A dramatic illustration of the variation of the speed of sound with the density of a gas is performed by breathing a low density and a high density gas and talking as the gas is expelled from the lungs.
		Sound appears to be a topic distinct from motion and heat.
		The speed of sound in a gas is proportional to the square root of its density.

	Sound
		The essential components of sound recording and reproduction are the microphone, speaker and amplifier.
		A precaution that we take to protect ourselves and the environment from the dangers of sound waves is using a muffler on a car, to help quiet car engines, wearing ear plugs when a loud noise is constantly around us.
		Sound waves are used when performing ultrasound tests.

	Third Grade - Science - Overview - March
		Tell the students that their sound makers--their vocal cords--are in their throats.
		Sound waves vibrate the ear drum which vibrates the ear bones which vibrate the liquid inside the cochlea which vibrates the hairs in the cochlea which are connected to nerves that send messages to the auditory nerve and on to the brain.
		Sounds that have a low pitch, such as the rumble of a truck engine, the boom of a bass drum or a dog growling, are made by something vibrating more slowly.

		Use sounds like the swamp sounds from outside.uax, or crazy stuff like a churchbell, then give it a very low pitch, between 8 and 16 (depends a bit on the sound of course, sometimes it should be lower or higher) and a big radius- say 192, and a high volume- 224 or so.
		These uses of sound are just plain boring: they are always the same sounds you are hearing, you can barely hear them, and they are all on such predictable places.
		Use sounds with high volume and low radius for detail work, a volume of 230 and radius 8-24 (all depends on the sound), can give cool effect for instance, certainly for the people with 3D sound.

	Puget Sound, Washington State, USA
		The Puget Sound region is home to the majority of Washington State citizens who live in the bustling cities and suburbs which extend north to south from Stanwood to Olympia.
		On the west side of the Sound are the cities of Bremerton, Port Orchard and Shelton.
		Puget Sound itself is a body of water lying east of Admiralty Inlet, through which ocean waters reach inland some 50 miles from the Pacific Coast to provide all-weather ports for ocean-going ships at Seattle, Tacoma and Olympia.

	ESA - Cassini-Huygens - Sounds of an alien world
		Several sound samples, taken at different times during the descent, are here combined together and give a realistic reproduction of what a traveller on board Huygens would have heard during one minute of the descent through Titan's atmosphere.

		This recording is a laboratory reconstruction of the sounds heard by Huygens' microphones.

	OWL at Purdue University: Sound
		All of us have read ineffective poems where the rhymes sounded like "the cat sat on the mat" and we felt like we were being forced into a box that felt both unnatural and unnerving.
		This means that repeated sounds cohere the poem in much the same way that repeated rhythms do.
		The other major matters of sound that have yet to be discussed but are just as important are assonance, consonance, and alliteration.

	The Half-Life 2 Stuttering Problem
		The sound card works beautifully in all my games and audio apps with the exception of Half-Life 2 where I now experience extreme stuttering as well as distorted and corrupted sound effects followed by a complete system freeze within minutes of starting a new game.
		I am a bit concerned that they refer to this issue as a "sound skipping problem" when in fact the whole game pauses while the sound is skipping.
		These drops are usually accompanied by looping or stuttering sound during the frame rate drop which is how most people become aware of the problem.
