Question

Difference between Echo and Reverberation.

Answer 1

Difference between Echo and Reverberation:

Echo	Reverberation
1. The repetition of sound caused by reflection of sound wave is called echo.	1. The persistence of sound in a big hall due to repeated or multiple reflections of sound from the walls, ceiling and floor of the hall is called reverberation.
2. Echo is produced in a big empty hall. Here is no multiple reflections of sound. Sound is not persistant.	2. If reverberation is too long, sound becomes blurred, distorted and confusing due to overlapping of different sound.
