### Sound Waves and Wavelength

The image above illustrates the propagation of sound waves from a loudspeaker, demonstrating wave patterns and the concept of wavelength.

#### Diagram Details

- **Loudspeaker**: Positioned on the left side, it serves as the source of the sound waves.
- **Wave Patterns**: The waves emanate outward in concentric circles from the loudspeaker. These circular patterns represent the compressions and rarefactions in the sound wave.
- **Wavelength**: The distance between consecutive compressions (or rarefactions) in the wave, recognizable as the space between the dark concentric circles.
- **Measuring Scale**: A yellow ruler is placed parallel to the waves, ranging from 0 to 5 meters. This helps measure the distance, emphasizing the scale and wavelength of the sound waves.

This visualization helps in understanding how sound travels through a medium by compressing and decompressing the particles in the air, represented by the alternating dark and light bands.
