it is used my SONAR. When something is underwater. I.E fish. The sound sends a frrequency to the fish, and it bounces back off the fish back to the SONAR. and thats how people know where to go and how to find stuff underwater
Sound does not tansmit or absorb water. But water both transmits and absorbs sound.
Sound is transmitted through water the same way it's transmitted through air -- by vibrations. Whatever is making the noise makes vibrations in the water, which then strike against your eardrum and vibrate it, and then the vibrations travel through some bones in your head to a bundle of nerves, which transmit the signal to your brain, which produces the sensation we call sound.
Sound waves transmit sound through a solid, as well as air and water. Sound waves cannot be transmitted through a vacuum.
Sound energy is transmitted as mechanical waves that propagate through a medium such as air, water, or solids. Light energy, on the other hand, is transmitted as electromagnetic waves that do not require a medium and can travel through a vacuum.
sound energy can be transmitted from gases,plasma andliquids and as longitudinal waves, also called a compression waves. it requires a medium to propagate. through solids it can be transmitted as both longitudnal waves and transverse waves
Sound waves can travel through water due to the vibration of water particles caused by a source of sound, such as a moving object or a sound-producing device. The vibrations create a pressure wave that propagates through the water, allowing sound to be transmitted underwater.
Sound does travel under water otherwise the Humpback would be wasting its time singing!
When under power the sound of the engine and water lapping at the hull. When under sail the sound of water lapping at the hull.
Sound energy is transmitted through a medium, such as air, water, or solid materials. As the sound waves travel through the medium, they cause particles to vibrate, carrying the sound energy from the source to the listener.
Sound travels through water by causing the water molecules to vibrate and pass on the sound energy to neighboring molecules. The speed of sound in water is faster than in air because water is denser and provides a more efficient medium for the transmission of sound waves. Underwater animals, such as whales and dolphins, use sound to communicate, navigate, and hunt due to the effectiveness of sound transmission in water.
no
sound is not louder in water because of the water that is in your ears and the sound would be very faint.
