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.
What else can I help you with?
Do sound waves need a material to travel in?
sound wave need material becuse sound wave formed by compresion and rarefaction
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 does sound not travel?
outer space because you need some kind of physical material for sound to travel through and there's none of that in space
Why does the sound not travel through vacuum?
Sound waves require a medium, such as air, water, or a solid material, to travel because they propagate through the vibration of molecules in that medium. In a vacuum, there are no molecules for the sound waves to interact with, so they cannot travel through it.
What do Sound wave not travel?
Sound wave do not travel through vaccum as it need medium to travel.
Light can travel through a vacuum as is evidenced when you see the sun or the moon. Can sound travel through a vacuum also?
No, sounds cannot travel through a vacuum. This is because sound requires a medium to travel through because it requires the vibration of particles to travel and there need to be particles to vibrate for it to travel through.
Which travel faster a radio wave or sound wave?
A radio wave travels about 874,000 times as fast as a sound wave,plus it doesn't need any material to move through, as sound does.
What are the 3 things you need for sound to be heard?
You need a source that produces sound waves, a medium through which the sound waves can travel (like air, water, or a solid material), and a receiver (like ears or a microphone) that can detect and interpret the sound waves.
Sound waves do not travel through what?
Sound waves do not travel through a vacuum. They require a medium, such as air, water, or solids, to propagate. In a vacuum, there are no particles for the sound waves to interact with and thus cannot travel.
Can sound travel through a room with no air?
No, sound cannot travel through a room with no air because sound waves need a medium, such as air, water, or a solid, to propagate. Without a medium, there is nothing for the sound waves to travel through.
Why sound wave not travel in space?
Sound waves require a medium (such as air, water, or solid material) to travel through because they propagate by causing particles in the medium to vibrate. In the empty vacuum of space, there are no particles to vibrate, so sound waves cannot travel.
Does sound energy need particles to travel through?
No, sound energy can travel through mediums like air, water, or solids, where it causes particles in the medium to vibrate and carry the sound wave. However, sound cannot propagate through a vacuum as it requires a medium to transmit its energy.
