Physics professionals make fundamental approaches to concepts associated with sound waves.
The study of sound is done through a discipline called acoustic physics, which covers the following knowledge topics: physical measurements; vibratory and wave motion; waves; sound wave parameters; sound properties; sound propagation; Fourier series; noises; sound measurement and hearing biophysics.
