The travelling of sound measured in meters by second (m/s) Is the number of waves that pass a point per second, this is measured in Hertz (Hz) Is the distance between matching points on a wave, this is sometimes called Lambda and it is measured in meters (m) Longitudinal waves vibrate parallel to the direction of travel of the wave. Sound waves are longitudinal. Transverse waves vibrate at right angles to the direction of travel of the wave

 * Sound** Waves And Their **Sources**

The Sound are the effects of vibrations. When a cup fall to the floor or a bat hit the ball in a game, the sound is produced. Principally there are sonic booms and impulsive sources, both of them related with frequency, waves and a sound area. Impulsive sounds are related to our daylight, just as the water in the morning or the clamps of cars outside, the sonic booms are related with more explosive sounds, just like a vassel falling to the floor, or a lamp, or even a whip on the wall. The particles in objects vibrates, producing sound, in that case we can say that high presures, when are exploded generates a really big sonic boom, just like ballon when is pick with a nail by example. Sound travel quickly by solid objects like the floor, walls or even our body because the particles are nearest one each other and can interact faster than particles dispersed like air. The implusive sources generates a really high vibration and long db levels and the sonic booms are just explosives.
