When some sound is made (talking, song, bell etc.) it generates some waves. These waves are captured by out ear drums and the mind translates them for us.
Sound is mechanical energy, and the energy of the sound is transferred into the medium through which it is travelling. As the energy of sound is carried by the medium, the vacuum of space will not support a sound wave.
It is produced by soundwaves in the air, which are registered in the inner ear. The way a schoolbell produces these waves is when the "hammer" hits the metal of the bell, and makes the metal to vibrate, where the vibration or the waves get sent through the air molecyles.
so that the sound (ring) made from the bell will travel a greater distance. if it's at the bottom of the bell tower (or whatever building) there are many things and buildings in the way of the sound waves.
No - sound wave cannot pass through "vacuum". It was Robert Boyle, English scientist who proved in 1960 that sound waves need to pass through a medium to transmit sound. This can be tested as follows: Place a bell inside a chamber and slowly start evacuating air from the chamber. It can be seen that sound of the bell is slowly becoming softer, until there is absolutely no sound.
Waves carry sound energy from the bell to the ear.
the sound particles travel in waves and enters your ears
the bell in a vacuum, in a vacuum there is nothing for the sound wave to move through
yes bell rung under water can be heared

A hundred years ago twp people on lake Geneva in Switzerland measured the speed of sound in water. One made a signal and started ringing a bell under the water.The other one started a stopwatch and then held his head under the water until he heard the bell.
Yes, it is. Invented by Alexander Graham Bell in 1876 when he was working with sound and the waves of sound so he could win a frendly compotition.

Sound is mechanical energy, and the energy of the sound is transferred into the medium through which it is travelling. As the energy of sound is carried by the medium, the vacuum of space will not support a sound wave.
We just learned about this in science class. Air vibrates throughout the tube part and out the bell to produce sound waves.
It is produced by soundwaves in the air, which are registered in the inner ear. The way a schoolbell produces these waves is when the "hammer" hits the metal of the bell, and makes the metal to vibrate, where the vibration or the waves get sent through the air molecyles.
The lips produce vibrations and airflow which creates standing waves in the instrument. those vibrations are tuned and amplified by the bell into large pressure waves.
