Well, let's think about that:

-- Can you hear someone calling to you from across the street ?

-- Through air ?

-- And why is there lots of sound here on Earth, but none at all on the Moon ?

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.


What sounds travel through gas?

Sounds travel through gas by creating pressure waves that propagate through the molecules of the gas. As the pressure waves travel through the gas, they compress and rarefy the molecules, transmitting the sound energy from one point to another. Examples of gases that sound can travel through include air, carbon dioxide, and helium.


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.


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.


Does sound travel faster through a solid luquid or gas?

Solid


Does sound travel faster through a solid than a gas?

yes


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.


Does sound only traveled through gases?

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


Which of the following sound not travel through?

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


Can sound travel through a balloon filled with hydrogen gas?

Yes, sound can travel through a balloon filled with hydrogen gas because the gas molecules can vibrate and transmit the sound waves. However, the speed of sound may be faster in hydrogen gas compared to air due to the lower density of hydrogen molecules.


How do sound waves travel trough matter?

Sound waves travel through the three states of matter (gas, liquid and solid) by vibrations.
