Acoustic waves are a type of energy propagation through a medium by means of adiabatic loading and unloading. Wikipedia

Longitudinal wave that propagates by means of adiabatic compression and decompression;travels with the speed of sound which depends on the medium they're passing through Wikidata

The travelling of acoustic waves in the atmosphere with a speed independent of their amplitude. The speed only depends on the acoustic medium and is proportional to the square root of the absolute temperature for any given medium. OmegaWiki

Auditory sensation produced by the oscillations, stress, pressure, particle displacement, and particle velocity in a medium with internal forces; pressure variation that the human ear can detect. OmegaWiki
