It will never reach the moon. Being a sound wave, it requires a material medium in which to propagate.
Virtually the entire distance between earth and moon is totally devoid of any material substance through which
sound may travel.

Why does sound not travel on the moon?
Cause there is no air or substance to carry the sound wave
How far does a high frequency sound wave travel going to the moon?
well, what is the distance in kilometers and wher is it from.
What do we see that the amplitude of a wave produces?
The amplitude of a wave produces the intensity of the wave. With a light wave, it is the intensity of the light, with a sound wave, it is how loud the sound is
Why can't sound waves be used to measure the distance between the earth and moon?
Sound waves are a form of compression wave which requires a medium to be transferred. Due to the vacuum of space, sound will not travel from the earth to the moon.
Why cant you hear the sun here on earth?
Because sound doesn't traverse through a vacuum, sound requires air to pass through in a wave (sound wave).
What part of the electromagnetic spectrum does the ultrasonic wave falls into?
An ultrasonic wave is not an electromagnetic wave; it is a sound wave.An ultrasonic wave is not an electromagnetic wave; it is a sound wave.An ultrasonic wave is not an electromagnetic wave; it is a sound wave.An ultrasonic wave is not an electromagnetic wave; it is a sound wave.
Is ultrasonic wave radio frequency?
ultrasonic wave is sound frequency
What is ultrasonic wave?
An ultrasonic wave is a sound pressure wave that has a very high frequency. The frequency is higher that what humans can hear.
Which sound waves can be called ultrasonic?
Ultrasonic means 'faster than sound'. This means no sound wave can be faster than sound.
What is an ultrasonic wave?
Ultrasonic waves are sound waves with frequencies higher than what humans can hear. Sound waves have frequencies of about 20,000 to 100,000.
Are ultrasonic waves called as electromagnetic wave?
No ultrasonic waves are not a form of electromagnetic wave. Ultrasonic waves are nothing more than high frequency sound waves. They can be made with a suitable speaker or transducer.
Can an ultrasonic wave be produced by using speakers?
no Because ultrasonic sound waves are not audible and it is not possible to create that much loudness in normal speakers.
What is the speed of ultrasonic waves in vacuum is equal to what is the speed of audible sound in air?
No, ultrasonic wave do not travel at all in a vacuum.
Any sound wave with frequencies higher than 20000 hz?
The sound which is over 20 000 Hz is called ultrasonic. It can't be heard by human ears. It can be heard and produce by some of the animals and mammals e.g.-Dolphin,bat etc. The sound which is less then 20 Hz is called infrasonic. The sound is divided into these two parts.
Which type kf sound wave is used by bats and whales in echolocation?
They use ultrasonic. The sound they use to locate objects that may be invisible.
Why a bat can't use infrasonic sound wave instead of ultrasonic sound wave?
Basically, a wave will hardly be affected by objects that are smaller than the wavelength. That means that shorter wavelengths are more appropriate for detecting objects.
Can ultrasonic wave pass through 1Cm thick iron plate?
Yes. Ultrasonic waves can pass through metal. The only difference between "normal" sound waves and ultrasonic waves is that we cannot hear ultrasonic waves. However, they behave the same.
