2. If waves radiated outward from a sound source are symmetric and uniform in all direction, the source is an isotropic radiator.
The simplest isotropic radiator is a pulsating sphere, which is a uniform and homogeneous sphere whose surface expands and contracts radially and sinusoidally with time.
If the dimensions of a radiator are small compared with the wavelength of the sound radiated, the radiator can be approximated by a pulsating sphere.
