Is there a way sound can travel on the moon?
It can travel through the moon's crust, yes - it is solid. But it cannot travel through the air on the moon, of course, because there Is no air on the moon!
If a cymbal were struck in space how do you predict the sound waves would travel?
PLATO USERS! They would not travel, because here is no medium present.
What types of substances can sound not travel through?
Sound cannot travel through a vacuum because it requires a medium, such as air, water, or a solid material. Sound also does not travel through gases in the same way it does through solids and liquids because gases are less dense. Additionally, sound does not travel through a perfect insulator that completely blocks the transfer of vibrations.
When two men talk on the moon they cannot hear each other why?
On the moon, there is no atmosphere to carry sound waves, so there is no medium for the sound to travel through and reach the other person's ears. As a result, sound cannot propagate in the same way it does on Earth, and communication through sound would not be possible between two individuals on the moon.
I you put an alarm in a vacuum jar you can't hear it why?
In a vacuum jar, there is no medium for sound waves to travel through, so the alarm cannot be heard. Sound waves require a medium, such as air, to propagate and reach our ears. Without a medium, there is no way for the sound to travel and be perceived.
How far do guitar sound waves travel?
Guitar sound waves may vary. They travel way back to when you were born.
Why will sound have travel in a vacuum?
Despite what you see and hear in films and on TV, what we call sound cannot travel in a vacuum. A material medium (like air) is required.By the way, this concept was behind the tag-line for the original "Alien" film: "No one can hear you scream in space."
Would astronauts be able to hear an explosion on the moon?
No, astronauts would not be able to hear an explosion on the moon because there is no atmosphere to transmit sound waves. Sound requires a medium like air to travel through, and since the moon is airless, there would be no way for sound to propagate and reach the astronauts' ears.
How fast does sound go through mercury?
The planet Mercury does not have an atmosphere in the same way that the Earth has an atmosphere; it has only a very thin layer of gases far above its surface. Because sound cannot travel in a vacuum, there would be no speed of sound on Mercury.
Explain why a sound wave can't travel from a satellite to earth?
In space there is no air. Sound waves need a medium for transportation. Therefore we cannot hear any sound in a vacuum. In films they play us music from the outer space. But that is not possible in reality.
Why is your hair naturally wavy?
it just is that way
How is hearing on Earth differ from hearing in space?
Depends on if you mean hearing in a space shuttle, or hearing out in real "space." Sound travels through air, so if you were out in real "space," sound waves would not travel since there is no air (or other medium for sound to travel in). If you were in a space shuttle, with air, and different objects, sound would be transmitted much in the same way that it is on Earth, and would be perceived much in the same way as well. This is why astronauts can speak freely with one another aboard space crafts.
