Why sound canot travel in space?

In order for sound to travel, there has to be something with molecules for it t travel through. On Earth, sound travels by vibrating air molecules, there are no molecules in space, nothing to vibrate


Write short note on sound energy?

Sound energy travels in linear formation. It travels through a medium like solid or through the air. In space sound does not travel because there is a vacuum.


Can sound energy travel through the vacuum of space?

No sound can travel through space. Sound travels by vibrating adjacent molecules. The sound wave travels along these molecules until it dissipates with distance. In the vacuum of space, there are no molecules (this is not considering celestial bodies like planets or meteors because they are not a part of the vacuum), so sound cannot travel.


Can the sound of a wave travel through space?

Yes, sound travels through space when the space is filled with some medium such as air (or water or iron or cetera). Sound is vibrations in the medium which travel as a wave. If there is nothing in the medium, no sound travels through it. Outerspace is pretty empty. You won't hear anything if you're in outerspace (except sounds from inside your space suit/ship). P.S. Do you mean the sound of a wave (like splashing on rocks) or a sound wave?


Why can light travel through space from the sun to the earth but sound cannot travel through space?

light travels in straight lines thus is not affected by outer space being a vacuum. Sound on the other hand requires atoms to "bounce" off and vibrate through.

Why can't you hear sound in space?

Sound travels as pressure waves through air. There is no air in space so no sound.


How sound travels through air and objects to the ear?

Sound travels through particles which vibrate in solids liquids or gases, which is why sound can't travel through vacuums like space.


What makes noise on earth but not on space?

Sound travels in waves like light or heat does, but unlike them, sound travels by making molecules vibrate. So, in order for sound to travel, there has to be something with molecules for it to travel through. On Earth, sound travels to your ears by vibrating air molecules. In deep space, the large empty areas between stars and planets, there are no molecules to vibrate. There is no sound there.

How fast does sound take to get from the sun?

Sound must have matter to travel through - we are used to hearing sound that travels through air. But there is no air in outer space. We have heard sound that travels through water, but, there is no water in outer space either. In fact, outer space consists of a vacuum . . . not a floor cleaner, but a condition in which there is no matter - no air, no water, no nothing. So their is no sound transmission from the Sun. Have you heard any?

Movement energy energy,sound energy and heat energy


How did Boyle's experiment show that sound cannot travel through a medium?

I cannot imagine what experiment you are referring to because sound ONLY travels through a medium. In space, no sound.
