How do vibrations produce sound?
A sound wave is a transfer of energy as it travels away from a vibrating source.
How does sound waves travel in air and transfer energy?
As longitudinal waves. It transfers energy through vibrations of air layes
Why does sound need a medium to transfer vibrations?
Sound means that some molecules transfer their vibrations to other molecules. So, because of this, obviously you need molecules to transfer sound.Sound means that some molecules transfer their vibrations to other molecules.

What has to happen to make sounds travel?
Atoms transfer sound energy through vibrations. If there are no atoms, such as in a vacuum, sounds cannot be transmitted.
What energy is carried on waved by vibrations?
sound energy
What Energy caused by an objects vibrations?
Sound energy
What is the source of energy for a sound wave?
The source of energy for sound waves are vibrations.
What is a source of energy for a sound wave?
The source of energy for sound waves are vibrations.
How can sound transfer in liquid?
Same as in the air, through vibrations.
What type of energy is caused by an object's vibrations?
sound energy
How is sound energy renewable?
Sound is not an energy. It is a wave of vibrations. If you have matter, you can vibrate it, and therefor create sound.
Can plastic reflect sound and what is the science behind it?
All solids can reflect sound. Different plastics reflect by different amounts. Sound waves are vibrations. They transfer energy to the solid when they hit it, and the particles of solid vibrate more, and can transfer this vibration back to the air.
