Can sound waves travel without a meduim?

No, sound waves require a medium to travel through. The medium could be a solid, liquid, or gas, but they cannot travel through a vacuum because there are no particles to transmit the vibrations that carry the sound.


Can Sound waves travel through gas liquid and solids.?

Yes, yes, and yes. Sound can travel through any compressible medium. The denser the medium, the faster sound will travel.


How sound can pass through liquid?

Sound can pass through liquid by creating pressure waves that travel through the liquid molecules. These pressure waves cause the molecules to vibrate, transmitting the sound energy. The speed at which sound travels through liquid is faster than through gases but slower than through solids.


What liquid does sound travel through fastest?

Mercury @ room temp


What does sound need to travel through?

Sound (and vibration) are a wave system of sequential compressions and rarefactions of a material. These waves are mechanical and do need a substance through which to travel. They cannot travel through a vacuum.


Where do sound waves travel through?

Sound waves travel through a medium, such as air, water, or solids. In air, sound waves create vibrations that travel through molecules in the form of pressure waves. These waves carry the sound energy and allow the sound to be heard by our ears.


Does sound only traveled through gases?

No. Sound will travel through any sort of matter, gas, solid, or liquid.


Where does sound travels through?

Sound travels through a medium, which can be solid, liquid, or gas. In solids, sound waves travel the fastest, followed by liquids, and then gases. In space, where there is no medium, sound cannot travel.


Is a sound travel ina vacue?

No, sound cannot travel in a vacuum. Sound moves by vibrating particles of a solid, liquid, or a gas. Since there are no particles in a vacuum, sound cannot travel through it.


Which of the following sound not travel through?

Sound will not travel through a vacuum as it needs a medium which will allow vibrations.


Does sound travel through liquid or gas faster?

it travels fast in gases
