Is there sound in a vacuum?

Answer 1

No, you can not produce sound in a vacuum. Sound wave needs medium (for example air) to travel unlike electromagnetic wave which can travel through empty space.actually, sound wave does not propagate itself rather it needs a medium by which sound particle can transfer there energy from one place to other, so it seems like moving.

for eg. when u throw a stone in water ,some ripples form in water they seems to moving but not. like this sound propagate.

hence it requires medium

Answer 2

No, because in order for there to be sound there has to be vibrations of the air

In a perfect vacuum there is not atmosphere or air of any kind so, therefore, no sound. Sound needs a medium through which to travel, sound cannot travel through a vacuum.

No, since sound waves need a medium to propagate themselves such as air or water.Explosions in vacuum only have sounds in Hollywood movies just to enhance the viewer experience.

No,'cause in the vacuum,there is no medium to reflect soundwave.

No.

Answer 3

Sound travels in the form of waves. Sound waves are crated in the air when air molecules vibrate. These vibrating molecules carry energy and that is mechanical energy. So sound waves are mechanical in nature and they can travel only in material medium. For the propagation of sound waves a medium solid, liquid and gas is necessary but in vacuum there is absent of these medium. So sound cannot travel in vacuum.

Answer 4

No because vacuum is a lack of anything, sound is caused by vibrating particles and because vacuum is a lack of anything, then no sound can exist in a vacuum.

Answer 5

No,as we know that sound needs a medium to travel and in vaccum there is no air so that sound cannot propagate in vaccum.

Answer 6

No. Sound depends on a medium (air, liquid, or solid) in order to transmit. A vacuum, by definition, has no molecules to do the work.

Answer 7

No. Since there is nothing sound can travel through, sound cannot travel.

Answer 8

No. Sound waves require air to move.
