Echo and Echoes From Reflections Explain How Sound Travels
The article explains that sound moves as waves through air and travels about 1 000 feet per second. If a person speaks from 1 000 feet from a reflecting surface such as a cliff or building it takes one second for the sound to reach the surface and one to return, making a two second delay before the echo is heard. Repeated echoes come from multiple deflections or successive reflections at different distances.
