The document discusses properties of sound waves, including: 1. Sound waves can be longitudinal or transverse, and travel at different speeds in different media depending on factors like density and temperature. 2. The intensity of sound decreases with distance from the source according to the inverse square law. Intensity is measured in decibels on a logarithmic scale. 3. The Doppler effect causes changes in perceived frequency for observers moving toward or away from a sound source.
