Hello Everyone,
I have a somewhat simple question:
Why do we hear a sound better when we're closer to the object making it?Or less when we're farther? (ie a car siren is disturbingly loud when standing next to the engine but not the same when standing like 10 feet away).
Could it be because the farther you are, the lower the frequency? or it's not about that at all?
Please excuse my English as well as my ignorance about the matter.
Thank you in advance. :smile:
