If it passes through (i.e. you can hear it on the other side of the solid) then it hasn't been absorbed, but merely transferred from the source to the solid and back into the air. If the sound cannot be heard from the other side of the solid (i.e. it does not pass through) then it is said to have been absorbed.

What are three change of state in which energy is absorbed?
Melting: Solid to liquid transition where energy is absorbed to break intermolecular forces. Sublimation: Solid to gas transition where energy is absorbed to overcome intermolecular forces without passing through the liquid state. Dissolution: Solid dissolving in a solvent where energy is absorbed to break intermolecular forces within the solid and between the solid and solvent molecules.
Does sound energy that passes through a solid considered reflected?
depends on what type of solid depends on what type of solid
Sound energy that passes through a solid is said to be reflected?
Sound energy that pass through a solid is said to be reflected because as sound waves pass from air to a solid, some of the energy is reflected back into the air. Some of the energy will be absorbed by the new medium.
What passes through a medium?
Waves, such as sound or light, can pass through a medium. The medium can be solid, liquid, or gas, and the particles in the medium vibrate or oscillate as the wave passes through. Energy and information can also pass through a medium in the form of waves.
When molten solid becomes a solid is energy absorbed or released by the steel?
Energy is released.
Is energy absorbed durning solid to liquid phase change?
Yes, energy is absorbed during the solid to liquid phase change. This energy is used to break the bonds between the molecules in the solid and allow them to flow freely in the liquid state. This absorbed energy is known as the heat of fusion.
How does light travel from a flashlight to a soild?
Light travels from a flashlight to a solid through the process of reflection and absorption. When the light beam hits the solid surface, some of it is absorbed, and some is reflected. The absorbed light energy can cause the atoms in the solid to vibrate, generating heat.
If light does not pass through solid objects then what happens to the light?
It either reflects off, or is absorbed and converts to another form of energy.
When a substance changes from solid to a liquid?
It melts. Energy is absorbed.
What is the sequence of structure through which an absorbable food passes through the mouth to the anus?
The absorbable food passes through the mouth, then through the esophagus (throat), into the stomach, small intestine where most nutrients are absorbed, and finally into the large intestine where water is absorbed before being expelled through the anus.
When molten steel becomes solid is energy absorbed or released by the steel?
Energy is released.
How is stoichiometery used to calculate energy absorbed when a mass of a solid melts?
Stoichiometry can be used to calculate the energy absorbed when a mass of a solid melts by considering the heat energy required to overcome the intermolecular forces holding the solid together. By using the heat capacity of the solid, the mass of the solid, and the enthalpy of fusion for the substance, stoichiometry can help determine the amount of energy needed for the solid to melt.
