Sound waves have to go through a medium, or matter. Usually the medium is air, but they can go through any matter. Sound waves cannot exist in outer space because there is no matter for the wave to travel through. Sound waves travel at different speeds, depending on the medium. This is similar to light, because light slows down in mediums other than air (eg. water, crystal, ect.)

What are the phases of matter from fastest to slowest that sound travels through?
The phases of matter from fastest to slowest that sound travels through are solids, liquids, and gases. Sound travels fastest through solids because the particles are closer together and can easily transmit vibrations. In liquids, sound travels slower due to the looser arrangement of particles, and in gases, sound travels slowest because the particles are widely spaced.
How does sound affect mater?
sound is mainly caused by vibrating particles and matter consists of matter and the 3 states of matter are solids liqiuids and gasses and due to the way particles are spaced in the different states of matter we will have sounds travelling at different speeds as it crosses the different states of matter.
Why can't sound travel trough dark matter as we say it is present everywhere?
Sound requires particles to travel through, but dark matter is believed to be non-interacting, meaning it doesn't interact with the particles that carry sound waves. This lack of interaction prevents sound waves from propagating through dark matter.
What state of matter is sound?
Sound is a form of energy known as a mechanical wave that travels through matter, typically through solids, liquids, or gases. Sound itself does not have a state of matter as it is a wave that propagates through different materials.
Is air heat energy and sound a form of matter?
No, air, heat energy, and sound are not forms of matter. Air is a mixture of gases, heat energy is a form of energy, and sound is a type of mechanical wave. Matter refers to anything that has mass and occupies space.
What matter is sound?
Sound is vibrations not matter.
Why sound is not considered matter?
Sound has no mass. Without matter, there can be no sound. Sound is information which is carried on a wave that moves through matter.
How does matter affect sound?
Sound travels through matter by causing particles in the medium to vibrate. The density and elasticity of the material affect how sound waves travel through it. Different materials can absorb, reflect, or transmit sound waves in varying ways, which ultimately impacts how we perceive sound.
How do earthworm react to pencil tapping?
they only react depending on the sound....
Is sound example of matter?
Sound cannot be Matter as we can not see sound and it has no mass
Is sound considered matter?
No, sound travels through matter but is not matter itself.
How do you spell phases?
There are two words that sound the same:phased - of a changing status (traffic lights are phased)fazed - affected
