Yes, sound waves exist which are not audible to the human ear. Humans can hear sound waves having frequency between 20 - 20,000 Hz. Other all frequencies lie outside our hearing range and are called ultrasonic or supersonic waves.
Yes even sound waves diffract
Electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature where as sound waves are longitudinal. Electromagnetic waves can pass even through vacuum but sound waves are mechanical waves that means it needs badly a material medium Sound waves can be sensed by ear where as electromagnetic waves are sensed by eyes.
Leonardo DaVinci answ2. NO to the above. The question is probably not capable of a real answer. Even the Greeks had a good understanding of sound waves, and harmonics.
Sound waves are mechanical waves. So it needs badly a material medium. Air is one such medium. Through this medium sound gets traversed in form of longitudinal waves and not in transverse mode. Even the medium is water or even metal it has to traverse only in longitudinal mode. But in strings waves could be passed both longitudinally and transversely. Using Meld(e)'s string apparatus stationary waves are produced.
Longitudinal waves. The other category of waves, transverse waves, can't travel in a gas. This is valid in the case of mechanical waves; because electromagnetic waves are also transverse waves, and they can travel even in a vacuum.
Yes because sound waves exist even if people aren't in the area.

Sound waves are carried throw the air. But sound waves can also travel throw liquids, such as water, and even through solids.
wat does this even mean??

Sound waves travel through matter. Our atmosphere is a mixture of gases which is a form of matter. Sound waves will travel through our atmosphere, even if there is no human ear to receive it.

Radio, light, and sound.
Longitudinal waves. The other category of waves, transverse waves, can't travel in a gas. This is valid in the case of mechanical waves; because electromagnetic waves are also transverse waves, and they can travel even in a vacuum.
sound waves require a medium while electric radiation doesn't want any medium. It can be even transmitted through vaccum.
