MCQ From Sound & Wave

Whispering creates slow vibrations. A packet of light energy is called a photon. Blowing into an almost empty bottle produces a low pitch sound. A longitudinal wave in an elastic medium producing an audible sensation is a sound wave. Reflection is the bouncing off or turning back of light from a surface. A wave on any surface of water is a water wave. Alexander Graham Bell is best known for inventing the telephone. The boy decreased the amplitude of the sound waves by turning down the volume knob of his music system.
