    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_musical_symbols

    Musical symbols are marks and symbols in musical notation that indicate various aspects of how a piece of music is to be performed. There are symbols to communicate information about many musical elements, including pitch, duration, dynamics, or articulation of musical notes; tempo, metre, form (e.g., whether sections are repeated), and details about specific playing techniques (e.g., which ...

  3. Geometrical acoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometrical_acoustics

    Geometrical acoustics or ray acoustics is a branch of acoustics that studies propagation of sound on the basis of the concept of acoustic rays, defined as lines along which the acoustic energy is transported. [1] This concept is similar to geometrical optics, or ray optics, that studies light propagation in terms of optical rays.

  4. Acoustic transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_transmission

    Example of airborne and structure-borne transmission of sound, where Lp is sound pressure level, A is attenuation, P is acoustical pressure, S is the area of the wall [m²], and τ is the transmission coefficient. Acoustic transmission is the transmission of sounds through and between materials, including air, wall, and musical instruments.

    A typical five-line staff. In Western musical notation, the staff [1] [2] (UK also stave; [3] plural: staffs or staves), [1] also occasionally referred to as a pentagram, [4] [5] [6] is a set of five horizontal lines and four spaces that each represent a different musical pitch or in the case of a percussion staff, different percussion instruments.

  7. Sound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound

    During propagation, waves can be reflected, refracted, or attenuated by the medium. [5] The behavior of sound propagation is generally affected by three things: A complex relationship between the density and pressure of the medium. This relationship, affected by temperature, determines the speed of sound within the medium. Motion of the medium ...

  8. Acoustic transmission line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_transmission_line

    An acoustic transmission line is the use of a long duct, which acts as an acoustic waveguide and is used to produce or transmit sound in an undistorted manner. Technically it is the acoustic analog of the electrical transmission line , typically conceived as a rigid-walled duct or tube, that is long and thin relative to the wavelength of sound ...
