The intensity of sound is measured in terms of the amount of power that passes each second through a given area perpendicular to the direction of the sound wave. The intensity unit is the decibel (db).

Velocity. Sound can be transmitted by any medium gas, liquid, or solid and all sound waves travel at a constant velocity through any given medium at a constant temperature. But depending on their elasticity and density, some mediums transmit waves faster than others.

The velocity of sound is affected by temperature; as the temperature increases, the medium expands. Its density decreases, with the result that the velocity of sound increases.

Energy may take various forms sound, chemical, and electrical energy, for example.

Nature and properties of radiant energy. The various forms of radiant energy have many common characteristics, the most fundamental of which concerns their nature. They are all wave motion, consisting of varying electric and magnetic fields, but they can also be considered as being made up of particles, or quanta, of energy called photons. Radiant energy therefore has a dual wave/particle nature. The most important forms of electromagnetic radiation are visible and infrared light for the life.

Another basic characteristic of electromagnetic radiation is the fact that it does not need a medium in which to travel, and so it can travel through vacuum of space. But the various forms of radiation can also travel through other mediums: light travels through air, water, and glass, for example, and even pass through metal; that is to say, even a metal is transparent to X-rays and gamma rays.

In a vacuum, all forms of electromagnetic radiation travel at the same constant velocity called the speed of light. In other transparent mediums, they travel more slowly, the velocity depending on the wavelength of the radiation and, generally, on the density of the medium. In other mediums, different wavelengths travel at slightly different velocities. The longer the wavelength, the faster the radiation travels. So in the case of visible light, red light travels faster than blue light in any particular transparent medium does.

The various types of radiant energy have different wavelengths and frequencies. These two characteristics multiplied by the frequency are equal to the velocity. Because the velocity is constant in any particular medium, wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional to each other; the longer the wavelength, the lower the frequency is, and vice versa.
