How sounds wave transmitted?

Sound is mechanical energy. It's a vibration or oscillation, and it is transmitted as a wave of pressure and displacement. Like all mechanical waves, sound requires a medium through which to travel, and the source transfers mechanical energy into the medium. Solids and fluids (liquids or gasses) serve as mediums for the transmission of sound waves.

Can amplitude be transmitted by wave?

Amplitude is a characteristic of a wave, so it is not actually transmitted transmitted by a wave.


Are beach wave sound gas liquid or solid?

Beach wave sounds are considered a form of mechanical wave, which is a type of wave that propagates through a medium (such as air or water) as a series of compressions and rarefactions. In the case of beach wave sounds, they are typically transmitted through air (gas) or water (liquid).


You can hear sounds transmitted through air water or steel but not through the empty vacuum of space. What type of wave carries sound?

A pressure wave in a substance- a Primary or P wave. A vacuum is an absence of substance- nothing there to compress.


What is the device used for detecting sounds transmitted in the air?

A microphone detects sounds transmitted in the air.

How do the widths of the reflected and transmitted waves compare to the width of the incident wave?

The width of the reflected and transmitted waves is the same as the width of the incident wave. The frequency of the wave (measured in hertz) remains constant as it travels from one medium to another.


How do the wavelengths of the transmitted waves compare to the wavelengths of the incident wave?

The wavelengths of the transmitted waves can be the same, shorter, or longer than the wavelength of the incident wave, depending on the medium through which the wave is transmitted. When a wave enters a medium with a different speed, the wavelength may change to accommodate the new speed while conserving frequency.

When waves are transmitted from one substance into another the frequency of the wave is?

The frequency of the wave remains the same when it is transmitted from one substance to another. However, the speed and wavelength of the wave may change depending on the properties of the two substances.


What are the example of sound wave transmitted?

When you hear a person talking.


Substance through which a wave is transmitted?

The substance through which a wave is transmitted is called a medium. The medium can be a solid, liquid, or gas, and it allows the wave to travel through it by transferring energy from one particle to the next. Examples of mediums include air for sound waves and water for ocean waves.
