The statements ‘Sound insulators prevent sound from being transmitted better than elastic solids' is true of sound transmission through various mediums.
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
The sound insulators are the better way to prevent sound from being transmitted than elastic solids as they have a higher tendency to absorb sound waves than the elastic solids. A good sound insulation is considered in the range of 45 dB.
Mineral wool, rock wool, fibreglass etc are the best to be fit in between the studs of the walls. They absorb the sound waves and help reducing the transmission of sound from the walls, windows, fences, etc.
