Sound needs something to move through to exist and cannot exist in a vacuum. Sound, as we HEAR it, is fluctuation in air pressure. If there is no air, there can be no sound. If you played your stereo at full blast with the speakers facing the wall inside the space shuttle, an astronaut outside would not be able to hear it because there would be no air to transmit the sound. Sound travels faster in liquids and non porous solids than it does through air. It travels slower in dry air than it does in humid air.
What else can I help you with?
What does sound go faster through a vacuum or a solid?
Sound travels faster through a solid than through a vacuum. In a solid, sound waves propagate through the material's molecules, leading to faster transmission. In a vacuum, there are no molecules to transmit sound, so it cannot travel at all.
Does sound travel faster in a vacuum?
No, sound cannot travel in a vacuum because it requires a medium, such as air, water, or a solid material, to propagate. In the absence of a medium, there are no molecules for the sound waves to travel through, so they cannot propagate and cannot travel.
Will sound travel faster in solid or air?
Much faster in a solid
What environments sound can travel in?
Sound can travel in solid, liquid, and gas environments. In solids, sound moves faster than in liquids and gases due to the closer arrangement of particles. Sound cannot travel in a vacuum as there are no particles to transmit the vibrations.
Does sound travel faster through a solid or water?
sound travel faster through soled because of tighter packed particles
Which is faster for viberating sound travel solid or liquid or gas or vacuum?
Sound travels fastest in solids because the particles are close together, allowing for quicker transfer of energy through vibrations. In liquids, sound travels slower than in solids but faster than in gases due to the density of the medium. Sound cannot travel through a vacuum because it requires a medium to propagate.
What does sound have to have to travel?
A medium. Gas, liquid or solid. It can't travel in a vacuum.
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.
How fast can sound travel through a vacuum?
Sound cannot travel through a vacuum as it needs a medium, such as air, water, or solid material, to propagate. In a vacuum, there are no particles for sound waves to travel through, so the speed of sound is essentially zero.
Sound can travel through a vacuum is it true or false?
False. Sound requires a medium, such as air, water, or a solid material, to travel through. In a vacuum where there is no medium, sound cannot travel.
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.
Does sound travel faster through a solid luquid or gas?
Solid
