Abstract

The attenuation of sound waves in distilled water has been measured in the frequency range from 50 to 450 kilocycles. The results are in good agreement with those of Fox and Rock in the range above 10 megacycles. Measurements on filtered sea water from 50 to 180 kilocycles give values for the attenuation about 10 times as great as those obtained for distilled water. The measurements in sea water are in reasonable agreement with the measurements of other experimentors in the frequency range from 20 to 50 kilocycles. The data to be presented were obtained by the reverberation method, using an improved spherical resonator.
