A bare plastered wall, for ex- ample, reflects noises better than a mir- ror reflects light. If you clap your hands together in a bare plastered room, more than 95 per cent of the noise will be reflected from the wall. The sound of the hand clap will, there- " fore, persist for several seconds. This phenomenon of reverberation causes noises to be built up and retained “alive” in a room in such a way that thelr intensity is actually increased.
