When sound waves travel from air to water what will happen to the speed at wich they are moving?
i think the speed will increase.
Why does an object move when water is moving?
Mechanical waves (e.g. water waves, sound waves, seismic waves) cause objects to move because the waves themselves are mechanical motion of objects. Electromagnetic waves usually do not move large visible objects, but move electrons, atoms, and molecules because they respond to the moving electric field of the wave. This can cause electric currents in the object or heating of the object.
How does moving air form waves in the water?
Moving air can form waves on the surface of water through a process called wind-driven waves. When wind blows over the surface of a body of water, it transfers some of its energy to the water molecules at the surface, causing them to move. As the wind continues to blow, it creates a continuous transfer of energy to the water, resulting in the formation of waves. The size and characteristics of these waves depend on various factors such as the speed and direction of the wind, the duration of the wind's action, and the distance over which it blows (referred to as the fetch). The energy from the wind causes the water molecules to move in a circular motion, with water particles moving in the direction of the wave's propagation. As this motion continues, it creates a wave pattern that propagates across the water surface. Ultimately, wind-driven waves are a result of the transfer of kinetic energy from the moving air to the water, causing the water's surface to undulate and form waves.
Which wave cannot travel through air or water?
THROUGH air or water transverse waves cannot travel. But on the surface of water transverse waves can be produced
Why are explosions loud?
because they have micro particles that respond to the cells in the explosion that bounce off of each other... Actually, because explosions MOVE air, and your body, it's ears, detect moving air as SOUND. The moving air, in explosions, is moving at several times the speed of Hurricanes, and close to the explosion, thousands of feet per second. Explosions also produce shock waves, that are basically sound waves that travel through the ground, air, and water.
Why is movement not a life process?
wind is moving air-is it alive? waves are moving water-are they alive?

How does moving water form waves in water?
As it slides over the water surface film, air makes it move. As the water moves, it forms eddies and small ripples. Then waves are formed from these ripples

What causes small waves ripples to form on the ocean?
Ripples are formed by a friction of moving air and water.

How do scientist classify waves based on what they move through?
Scientist classify waves by moving through a medium and/or empty space. For example, a wall, air, water, space.
As surfers catch waves, are they on moving water or moving energy?
both
What do water waves not transport?
98% of water is not moving when it waves. One thing you can do to test this is get a rope and shake it. I hope this is what you meant.

Can light waves travel better in water or air?
Since air has a lower optical density than water, light waves can travel faster in air.
Which wave cannot travel through air or water?
THROUGH air or water transverse waves cannot travel. But on the surface of water transverse waves can be produced
