An analysis of the dual-process models’ theories and the assumptions about cultural psychology reveals that cultural psychology forces researchers to expend a high level of cognitive effort. The current debate between cultural psychologists and non-cultural psychologists is like the Gestalt psychology and Behaviorism debate in the 20th Century

Sound is a vibration that spreads across a medium (i.e.‚ air or water) as a mechanical longitudinal wave formed by pressure. A Mechanical longitudinal wave can also be called compression wave as it generates compressions and rarefaction when traveling through a medium. (Sound Is a Pressure Wave - Physics Classroom) The amplitude of a sound wave is the difference between the pressure of the undisturbed air and the maximum pressure caused by the wave. The Speed of sound deviates with the temperature
