Where do sound waves cannot travel?
it can't travel in a vacuum, it needs medium to travel
Does outerspace have sound?
Outerspace has no sound. This is because outerspace is essentially devoid of matter, and matter is required for sound. Sound is a physical phenomenon of a travelling pressure wave, and in space there is essentially no gas or media to transmit a wave.
Who proved that sound cannot travel in a vacuum?
leyden
Ein which of the follwing can sound waves not travil?

Sound cannot travel through a vacuum, such as in outer space. "Sound" refers to waves of compression which travel through matter. When there is no matter, there can be no such waves, and therefore no sound.
What do sound waves require to travel in?
Particles. They can't travel through a vacumm
What medium sound waves travel through?
Sound waves can travel through any matter- liquid, gas or solids. The denser the matter, the faster the sound travels. It cannot travel through vacuum- a vacuum is an absence of matter.
Why do you think sound cannot travel through vacuum?
Sound travels by vibrating through matter (solid, liquid, gas) A vacuum is the absence of matter and with out matter there is nothing for sound to travel through
In which matter does sound travel best?
in solid state of matter
Can sound travel through plasma?
yes., sound can travel through plasma because it is matter.
How do sound waves travel trough matter?
Sound waves travel through the three states of matter (gas, liquid and solid) by vibrations.
When a tree falls can sound waves travel?
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.
Can sound travel in Space where is there is no matter?
No, it can't.
How do sound waves travel what do sound waves need in order to travel?
sound waves bounce off of walls. they need air to travel.
Sound will NOT travel through?
Sound needs a matter based medium, so it will not travel through vacuum.
