Why The Sound Is Heard More Clear At Night Than At Day Time?
=>Sound is a longitudinal wave which needs material medium to propagate.So it's velocity depends upon the nature of medium.The most prominent reasons for the loudness of sound at night time are as follows:-
1)Moisture in the air =>We know the velocity of sound is inversely proportional to the density of medium.At night time the air becomes less dense than dry air because density of vapour is less than that of water.Hence it reduces the density of medium and as we know velocity is inversely related with density,velocity will increase which makes the sound more clear,louder and better.
2)Another reason behind it is that at night time no sound producing as well as absorbing bodies present.So sound is heard louder.

Laplace's Correction To Newton's Formula
Assuming isothermal conditions to prevail when sound travels through air, Newton has applied Boyle's law to the changes in pressure and volume. In a region of compression, there is a slight increase in temperature and in a region of rarefaction, there...

Doppler's Effects On Sound
Doppler's effects The apparent change in frequency of wave due to the relative motion between source and observer is called Doppler's effect.When source and observer move,there is change in velocity of wave.And when source moves towards observer,there...
