They pass from particle to particle by vibrating the particle. When the particle touches another particle, it transfers the sound energy to that particle. Hence the Sound Wave.

How sound waves travel through a material?

Sound waves travel through a material by causing particles in the material to vibrate back and forth in the direction of the wave. The disturbance created by these vibrations passes from one particle to the next, transmitting the sound energy through the material. The speed of sound in a material depends on the density and elasticity of the material.


Can sound travel through other kinds of material than air if so does it travel differently?

Sound can travel through all matter. The speed at which it travels depends on the density of the material.


What material is it that sound cannot travel through?

a fanny


What material does sound travel fast through?

Solids


Do sound waves need a material to travel in?

sound wave need material becuse sound wave formed by compresion and rarefaction


How does sound go through objects?

Sound can travel through solids, liquids, and gases by causing the particles of the medium to vibrate. When a sound wave encounters a material, the particles in the material vibrate and transfer the sound energy through the medium. The denser the material, the faster sound will travel through it.


Does sound need to travel through material?

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.


What type of material can travel through space?

Sound and Light can travel through space.


What is the material which sound waves travel through?

Sound waves travel through a medium, such as air, water, or a solid material like metal or concrete. The medium acts as a carrier for the sound waves to propagate.


Why does sound travel slow in cork?

Sound travels slower in cork compared to air because cork is a denser material, which causes sound waves to have to travel through the material's molecules at a slower speed. This increased density and the material's ability to absorb sound energy contribute to the slower speed of sound in cork.


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.
