2. B

Explanation:

Sound are mechanical waves that are highly dependent on matter for their propagation and transmission.

Sound travels faster through solids than it does through either liquids or gases.

Wavelength can be defined as the distance from one peak to the next peak of a waveform. This distance is also equal to the distance from one trough of a wave to another.

Diffraction is a wavelength property that makes it possible for sound to be heard around a bend. Thus, it's a property that causes a change in the direction of a wave as it travels through or around a barrier (obstacle) in its path.

Simply stated, diffraction involves the bending of waves around small obstacles with their dimensions smaller than or approximately equal to the wavelength of the sound wave.

On the other hand, reflection can be defined as a phenomenon which typically involves a change in the direction of a wave (bounces back) as it falls on a surface.

Hence, reflection is the property of sounds which animals such as bats use to detect their paths as they navigate from one point to another. This phenomenon is generally referred to as echolocation and it typically involves the use of reflection (echo) of sound to gain information about the nature and location of surrounding objects.

electromagnetic waves travel through space with vacuums. give me brainliest if right.

a longitudinal wave moves energy that is to the direction of the wave’s movement. - true
